Lovasik, S.V.D. provides children with simple explanations of the life of Mary, Mother of God. Mary, the mother of Jesus, plays a very important role in the New Testament and is an inspiring example for all of us. Chosen by God to bring His Son, Jesus, into the world, Mary shows us the power of saying \"yes\" to God's plan, even when it seems challenging or hard to understand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen the angel Gabriel appeared to Mary, telling her she would be the mother of Jesus, Mary was surprised but said, \"Let it be done to me according to your word.\" This \"yes\" is known as her \u003cb\u003eFiat\u003c\/b\u003e. Mary's trust and obedience to God show us how we can have faith in His plans, even if we don't see the full picture. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMary was also present during many important events in Jesus's life. She cared for Him as He grew up, was there at His first miracle at the wedding at Cana, and stood by Him during His crucifixion. This shows us her courage, deep love and loyalty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMary teaches us to be faithful, patient, and compassionate. She also helps us learn to trust in God's love. Catholics honor Mary and ask her to pray for us because she is so close to Jesus.\u003cbr\u003eMary's life reminds us that God's love is always with us and that we, too, can follow Jesus by being kind, loving, and trusting God's plans. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpecific topics covered in this title include: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMary is Born\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMary is Offered in the Temple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMary with Her Mother\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMary and Joseph are Married\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Angel Speaks to Mary\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMary Visits Elizabeth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJesus is Born in a Stable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMary Offers Jesus in the Temple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Magi Visit Jesus and Mary\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Holy Family Flees to Egypt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Holy Family at Nazareth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMary Finds Jesus in the Temple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMary at the Marriage Feast\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMary Meets Jesus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMary Sees Jesus Die on the Cross\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJesus Lies in Mary's Arms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJesus Appears to His Mother Mary\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMary Sees Jesus Rise to Heaven\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Holy Spirit Comes Down Upon Mary and the Apostles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMary is Taken to Heaven\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJesus Crowns Mary Queen of Heaven\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMary Our Mother\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CATHOLIC BOOK PUB CORP","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":67591341965602,"sku":"9780899422800-new","price":8.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0893\/4755\/5618\/files\/9780899422800.jpg?v=1792803542","url":"https:\/\/www.albakireads.com\/products\/mary-my-mother-9780899422800-new","provider":"AlbakiReads","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
