The Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary
Dear Family of Mary!
Today the Church celebrates the birth of our Mother, Mary, nine months after she was Immaculately Conceived through the prevenient grace of Jesus’ redemptive act. Our Mother was conceived, protected from Original sin. And she was born, still free from sin, and she grew from day to day, free from sin, by that grace and her own pure choice.
She is our pure Mother, the one who answered the Angel Gabriel, “Be it done unto me according to your word,” and she conceived our Savior, Jesus Christ.
We can celebrate this day without reserve!!! Our Mother, Mary, did it!! She cooperated with the grace of God perfectly, and gave us Jesus, our Savior who died and rose to bring us life!
This litany seems to be just right for today!! Rejoice, everyone! We are the most blessed of people!!

PS. On this wonderful Feast, let us beg Our Lady to do a mighty miracle and turn the hurricane, Irma, out to sea. Mary, Mother of Jesus, hear our prayer, and save us from this calamity.
