At mass in a prayer Mary the Mother of Jesus was refered to as the Womean of the Eucharist. What does this mean?

                          The account of the institution of the Eucharist on the night of Holy Thursday makes no mention of Mary. Yet we know that she was present among the Apostles who prayed “with one accord” (cf. Acts 1:14) in the first community which gathered after the Ascension in expectation of Pentecost. Certainly, Mary must have been present at the Eucharistic celebrations of the first generation of Christians, who were devoted to “the breaking of bread” (Acts 2:42). But, in addition to her sharing in the Eucharistic banquet, an indirect picture of Mary's relationship with the Eucharist can be had, beginning with her interior disposition. Mary is a “woman of the Eucharist” in her whole life. (Ecclesia de Eucharistia 53)

A ‘google’ of the term will yield you plenty of results.😉
 
Mary is present at every Mass just as she was present at Calvary.
She gave birth to the victim and she consented to the sacrifice.
Fiat mihi secundum verbum tuum.
