YEARBOOK PHOTO
MAY… MONTH OF MARYWhy was Mary chosen to be the mother of Jesus?
Mary was pre-destined to be his mother. She was formed without sin and kept free from sin throughout her whole life which allowed her to be the Mother of God. Her own birth was extraordinary, therefore when she gave birth, it was extraordinary.
MAY… MONTH OF MARYHow did she go up to heaven?/When did she ascend into heaven?
When Mary went up to heaven, it was called the “Assumption.” In very simple terms, her body and soul were “absorbed” into heaven. This is a doctrine of the Catholic church.
MAY… MONTH OF MARYWhy is Mary called the Virgin Mary?
The Church believes that Mary was and remained a virgin all of her life. She did not conceive Jesus as a woman would naturally do so with a m an. It was the Holy Spirit that came upon her as is written in Luke 1:34: “Mary said to the angel, ‘How can this be, since I am a virgin?’”
506 “Mary is a virgin because her virginity is the sign of her faith ‘unadulterated by any doubt,’ and of her undivided gift of herself to God’s will.” 1 Cor 7:34-35: “And the unmarried woman and the virgin are anxious about the affairs of the Lord, so that they may be holy in body and spirit; but the married woman is anxious about the affairs of the world, how to please her husband.”
