ociated Press p In the ageless city today time stands still, and all recall the year 1300 when the first Holy Year of Jubilee was proclaimed by Pope Boniface VIII. In our minds we envision pilgrims past, pres- ent, and future fourselvesj now marching into Rome, the eternal city--which gathers the past to her present, which gives a glimpse of eternity. When time is set on such a large scale, our daily activities merge into nothingness, dwarfed by the centuries. But when we look back on our days at Saint Mary during this Holy Year, our Semper Maria, permeated with thoughts of Time, will help us to relive the little things that make Saint Mary always a part of us. Thus, mindful of the millions of pilgrims who are fortunate enough to spend some time at the center of Christendom, to walk and talk with the Holy Father, we dedicate this book to them- with the hope that all people of all nations will soon heed his pleadings and return to the true Faith. 23 I45O I 475 I 500 I 525 I 550 I 575 I 600 I 625 I 650
