Sebtember 8 - The Feast of the Nativity of Mary

[Mark121359]

In all of my existence on this earth, there is no woman who I’ve had more affection for than my Mary! Words cannot express the feelings I have for our Blessed Mother. She does, and always will occupy a very special place in my heart. It is through her intercession that I returned to the Church some 23 years ago. And in that time, the graces I’ve received through her are innumerable. Thank you Lord for giving us your wonderful mother as our very own!

Happy birthday to you,
Happy birthday to you,
Happy birthday dear Virgin Mary,
Happy birthday to you!!!

God love you MomMom!
Thank You for always being there!
Love, Mark

I bought “birthday cake” ice cream today for us to have tomorrow on Mother Mary’s birthday. The children & I will sing her Happy Birthday at her little statue in our backyard. I hope everyone is able find a simple way to honor her tomorrow.

Happy birthday to you,
Happy birthday to you,
Happy birthday dear Virgin Mary,
Happy birthday to you!!!

How old are you?,
How old are you?,
How old are you Loving Mother?
How old are you?!!

I do believe Our Lady is the oldest living human.
~2,047 yrs. (or so)?

“What should we wish you, therefore, most noble and sweet Lady?

Many still do not know you… Many have come to know you, yet… they elude you, or… they have abandoned you altogether and are now sinking into the mire of immorality!

"Well then, holy Queen, on this beloved day of your feast, with all our hearts and with all our souls we wish you to take full and swift possession of our hearts and the hearts of one and all, without exception, be they Catholic, Protestant, Schismatic, Jew, pagan, good or bad.

Reign over us all and in us all; reign not only during this our earthly pilgrimage, but also forever and ever, for all eternity! For our part, we accompany our wishes with our work….”
