Today, the Church celebrates the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, one of only three birthdays honoured in the liturgical year.
She was born quietly, unnoticed by the world. Yet in that hidden moment, a new dawn had already begun.
When darkness seemed to have conquered everything, God was preparing the Mother of the Saviour.
On Our Lady’s birthday, ask her for one special grace, something real, something specific and place it confidently in her hands.
May Mary, who entered the world like the first light before sunrise, bring hope, protection and grace into our lives today.
Happy Birthday, Our Lady. 🌹
