Mass Entrance Song
Honour the woman who fears the Lord. Her sons will bless her, and her husband praise her. (See Proverbs 31:21,28).

I left at the whole story in this Entrance Antiphon.
At second thought, St. Monica (Memorial), is unfairly overshadowed by Augustine.
At every count, Monica stands personally on the strength of her faith apart from husband and sons.
A comment about her character surpasses her son and her life independent of any other.
She was her ‘own woman’ – her woman of Christ.
“ Monica became a leader of the devout women in Milan as she had been in Tagaste.”
