The Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary

*Feast*

Today we celebrate the birthday of the Blessed Virgin Mary. St. Romanus, a
sixth-century lyricist in the Eastern tradition, first refers to the feast.
The tradition spread and was celebrated in Rome within a century. The
Protoevangelium of James, an apocryphal gospel from the 2nd century, tells
us the account of Our Lady’s birth. *Mary’s parents, Joachim and Anna,
longed for a child. Anna prayed to the Lord and in response, God sent an
angel telling her she’d conceive. When Mary was born, the couple rejoiced,
vowing to make their daughter a gift unto the Lord.* Her birth becomes, as
John Paul II wrote, “…the purest dawn of our Redemption,” as her life
brought forth the coming of our Savior. [1][2][3]
