Youth Our Lady of Peace Sweatshirt

Our Blessed Mother stands as the Queen of Peace, scepter in hand, carrying the Child Jesus who holds the entire world in His hands. This is an official title of our Mother.

In 1917, during World War I, Pope Benedict XV officially added "Queen of Peace, pray for us" to the Litany of Loreto, begging for the intercession of our Mother. Just eight days later, Our Lady appeared to three little shepherd children at Fatima, Portugal, bringing a message of hope and peace to the world, which we all know as Our Lady of Fatima.

In this design we separated the battlefield with Mother Mary standing right in the middle. Peace on one side flowers blooming over the war with doves flying. On the other side we have chaos and destruction which is the sad reality of the world we live in today. Regina Pacis, Latin for Queen of Peace sits at bottom. 

Your prayers are so much stronger than you think. You might ask yourself, how can my prayer of peace change the world if I myself am so small? Humility is knowing through God and not yourself, you are capable of so much more. And what a beautiful thing it is to pray for peace as we can be certain this aligns with God.
