Would you please correctly pronounce Kateri? It is not kuh-TAY-ree. It is KA-ter-ee. I was blessed to be able to visit her grave back in 2000 and asked the Mohawks on the reservation. She is named after Catherine of Siena so her name would be pronounced similarly to that. Thank you

@crsw7041 Did they mention her in the video? Was she an American-Indian? Why don't you summarize?

Please define Consecration

The Eucharist is consecrated during Holy Mass when the presiding priest says the essential words of consecration while the Holy Spirit changes the bread and wine into the body and blood of Christ

Well, Mary is a prototype of the Church itself, the Church and Mary are both our mother in a spiritual sense. The Church is the Bride of Christ. Though I would ask the question as to whether or not Mary's specific vow and consecration as a virgin involved the language of father son and Holy Spirit. Didn't she make that choice before the annunciation, not in reaction to it? So her consecration would have been to the Father alone and had the form of whatever was the practice then. The present day one which Nuns do, though the same in result and discipline, is different in object, or at least fuller in object. Though I also think it is possible to belabor all of these analogies and metaphors too far. For instance, Christ is the head of the church, and the Church is his body, so is he marrying his own body?

The metaphor of the Church being part of Jesus’s body is just explain how interwoven the Church is to Jesus. The Church and Jesus will not separate. It’s not possible. And also Paul’s explanation of it in 1 Corinthians 12. Asking if Jesus is marrying his body is taking it more literal than it needs to be. That’s like asking if Jesus is going to sleep with the Church once it is his wife.

@@peterv7258 The Church is feminine and is also "mother". Any association? Why don't you study Mariology? You will learn everything there is to know about the Virgin Mary. Already "belabored". No need to reinvent the wheel. PS: Someone above wrote a separate comment to you. An undelivered mail?

@Peterv7258 Genesis 2:24 & Ephesians 5:31: the man leaves mother and father and cleaves to His wife and the two shall become one. It is THROUGH the bride of Christ we truly become one with Christ and therefore co-heirs with Christ as the Hope of Glory (Colossians 1:27) - this is our Blessed Hope (Titus 2:13)) But God’s word through the apostles are teaching us a spiritual mystery through how the instruments of our physical senses understand
