Birthday of Blessed Virgin Mary..........September 8



Mary was born to be the mother
of the Saviour of the world,
the spiritual mother of all men,
and the holiest of God's creatures.

In Mary all human nature is exalted.
We rejoice in her birthday,
as the Church has done from the earliest times.

Italian words ... "The miraculous image of the most holy infant Mary, which is venerated in the mother-house of the Sisters of Charity of Milan, was crowned on May 31, 1904."

Friends,

The meaning of the Italian words ...
"The miraculous image of the most holy infant Mary, which is venerated in the mother-house of the Sisters of Charity of Milan, was crowned on May 31, 1904."

Beautiful. No Lady more beautiful walked the earth before or since. Our Blessed Mother should have beautiful images such as this one created to inspire us to pray to her. Thank you for posting this.

Hello dearest Micki,

I have been searching and searching for about an hour now for a good music tribute to post for Mary today. Unexpectedly I opened 2 YouTubes that desecrate the purity of Mary. How sad! God save their souls!!!

In the end, I came here, and I see this most beautiful and unique picture... oh so appropriate! What a joy!

So now you know what pic I have chosen for today. :-)

Much love to you, Micki,
Easter:-)

Hi again Micki, :-)

Thanks and love,
Easter:-)

John - you add so much to each card you translate. Thank you.

Adrienne - I agree, it's fun to have images to help remind us of their physical nature.

Easter - Thank you for your continued comments and love...as they say, back at you dear friend.

Ed - I'm sure she enjoyed your greeting.
