THE ANNUNCIATION

The angel Gabriel brought God's invitation to Mary, and the entire destiny of humankind hung upon her response. She was chosen not only as a young maiden from Nazareth but as the representative of all humanity—her "yes" would become the "yes" of every heart longing for salvation.

THE VISITATION

Together with Mary, Your Mother, in whose womb you took on our human nature, we wait to receive from You, our Only True Good, the strength to love and serve others, awaiting the joyful hope, of eternal life…

THE NATIVITY

Lord Jesus, here, at the humble cradle where You rest, I am overwhelmed by the beauty of Your silence, the mystery of Your smallness and the tenderness of Your love...
As I gaze upon You, so small, so vulnerable, I ask for the grace to see others through Your pure, childlike eyes, which see only love, and know no judgment...
Grant me this grace, Lord, so that my love might mirror yours, and my life may bring light to those in darkness.

THE PRESENTATION OF JESUS IN THE TEMPLE

In this small Child, a Light was placed before all humanity—a light that would reach beyond time and place, guiding the lost back to God. The Temple ceremony itself was a prelude to His mission: the Light would shine in the darkness, and darkness would not overcome it. His tiny hands reached out, unwittingly extending salvation to those who long for deliverance."

THE FINDING OF JESUS IN THE TEMPLE

Mary was chosen to be the Mother of God, but this did not mean that she was exempt from the trials of understanding God’s plan. Mary’s journey is not one of perfect knowledge, but one of perfect trust. You see, holiness is not about having all the answers. It is about staying close to God, even when we do not understand, and being willing to grow in faith, step by step.
