I I I I Two books - one by a group of Anglicans, the other by a French I Lutheran - have recently been published overseas. The subject of I both is the place of Our Lady in the Christian life. The titles are: i "The Blessed Virgin Mary - Essays by Anglican writers" and "Mary: i Mother of the Lord Figure of the Church" by Max Thurian. i i I These books show a growing awareness in Protestant faiths of I I Mary's crucial place in Christian spirituality; and we may count them • as heartening evidence of the success of the Ecumenical movement. I i i As this editorial is addressed chiefly to girls educated in the I convents of the Institute of the Blessed Virgin Mary, may we stress I that a warm and filial devotion to this Sovereign Lady is our best i contribution to the healing of the wounds of Christendom. I I In devotion to Our Lady our hearts become receptive to the I Holy Spirit, and we help to spread the Kingdom of Christ on earth, I for, as the liturgy of the Mass tells us, i_ Mary gave to the world the Everlasting Light.
