Lots of other feast days also honor Mary, and the whole month of May is dedicated to her.Deborahhttp://the-exponent.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9085826525086205605.post-86448319441106422602010-12-18T11:53:07.070-08:002010-12-18T11:53:07.070-08:00Thanks Deborah for that lesson.
Going it edit it...Thanks Deborah for that lesson. <br /><br />Going it edit it now... <br /><br />Isn't there a celebration of Annunciation and isn't that when Mary learned that she was going to be Christ's mother?Jennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09693855868835555292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9085826525086205605.post-39825359306207950262010-12-18T08:39:12.109-08:002010-12-18T08:39:12.109-08:00FYI (since I am a fount of all things Mary): The ...FYI (since I am a fount of all things Mary): The immaculate conception does not refer to Jesus' conception but MARY's conception (e.g. her mom and dad, Anne and Joachim).
