    Who is The Blessed Virgin

    Mary?
    The Blessed Virgin Mary is the
    “chosen one” by God to be the
    Mother of His Son, Jesus Christ.
    She has been chosen because of her
    faith, obedience and purity of heart.

    She was conceived without the stain of


    original sin because she was already
    preserved by God at the moment of
    her conception in the womb of St.
    Anne– She is called the “Immaculate
    Conception.”
    Immaculate Conception
    feast day
    December 8
     Mary’s Birth
    Mary was born in Jerusalem
    She would have been
    educated at the Temple,
    with all the other Jewish
    Children. And her parents
    are St. Anne and St.
    Joachim.
     Mary at School
    During - this time
    Mary took a vow of
    Chastity (virginity).
    She was also visited by
    angels. Jewish girls
    were considered
    marriageable at age 12
    years and 6 months.
    She would have been
    released from school
    at 12 for this reason.
     Mary and Joseph
    in the tradition that girls were
    betrothed (engaged) for one
    year before marriage. Mary
    was betrothed to Joseph,
    during this time she would
    have been considered the
    property of Joseph while
    living with her parents.
     Annunciation
    During this year of
    engagement, Mary
    was visited by
    Angel Gabriel. The
    Angel addressed
    her: “Hail Full of
    Grace!” And she
    was chosen by God
    to carry His son,
    Jesus Christ.
     Mary visits Elizabeth
    Mary immediately shared
    the news with her cousin
    Elizabeth. Elizabeth had
    also received a miracle, she
    became pregnant after
    being declared barren
    (unable to have children).
    At this time, being barren
    was considered
    punishment for sinfulness.
     Mary sees Elizabeth - When Elizabeth saw Mary,
    Elizabeth’s child leapt with joy. She said to Mary: “Blessed
    are you among women and Blessed is the fruit of your
    womb.” This was a sign that both women had received gifts
    from the Holy Spirit. Elizabeth was the first to call Mary
    “Mother of God.”
    Joseph was shocked to discover that Mary was pregnant.
    Not knowing of the incarnation, he is filled with shame
    and embarrassment until he is visited by an angel of the
    Lord in his sleep.
    The angel said: “Journey to
    Bethlehem In Mary’s ninth
    month of pregnancy, a
    decree is announced from
    Caesar requiring everyone
    to return to their birth
    place for a census.”
    Mary and Joseph make the
    long journey to
    Bethlehem from
    Jerusalem.
     The Nativity of Jesus - Mary’s labour began when
    she arrived in Bethlehem. Mary and Joseph were
    turned away three times before given shelter in a
    “manger” (grotto). This was the place of Jesus’ birth.
     The Passion - Mary watched
    silently as Jesus did God’s work:
    He taught, performed miracles,
    challenged laws and gathered
    disciples. Finally Jesus’ life was
    sacrificed for the sins of all
    humankind. Mary watched
    silently as Jesus was tried,
    whipped, carried his cross and
    was crucified alongside
    criminals.
     The Resurrection - Jesus died for three days and was
    raised to heaven on the third. On this day, his body
    disappeared and he was lifted into heaven to sit on the
    right side of God His Father.
     It is believed that Mary assumed into heaven to be
    with Jesus, God and the Holy Spirit. Mary is our
    perfect example of following God’s will. She gave up all
    her own desires to fulfill God’s will.
    QUESTIONS:
    1. How can you be like Mary?

    2. What is the greatest sacrifice that Mary offers?

    3. Does Mary live a virtuous life? How?


    SUMMARY
     We should love our parents because they are the one
    who sacrifices the most, in order for us to be happy
    always. Let us give importance especially to our
    Mother because they are the one who takes good care
    of us, who understands us, who loves us, and especially
    who will be with us in times of our trials.

     Let us love our parents as we love Mary. Without Mary,


    we have no salvation, that is why we thank God for
    giving us Mary, the Mother of God who intercedes our
    prayer through her Son Jesus Christ.
