Today, we joyfully celebrate the birth of the Blessed Virgin Mary, whose life was lovingly prepared by God for her unique role in His plan of salvation.

Mary reminds us that God's call often begins quietly, with a life rooted in faith, humility, and openness to His will. May her example inspire us to welcome God's call with the same generous heart and to bring Christ into the world through our lives and service.

“Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall name him Emmanuel,” which means “God is with us.”
— Matthew 1:23

Mary, Mother of Jesus and our Mother, pray for us.
May we, like you, continue to say yes to God with faith, humility, and courage.

Happy Feast of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary!
