ANNUNCIATION OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY
March 25th
HOLY DAY OF OBLIGATION
This feast was established to commemorate the election of the Blessed Virgin Mary to be the Mother of God’s only begotten Son, the second Person of the Blessed Trinity. Mary consented freely to the proposal of the Angel who brought her the happy news in the name of the Blessed Trinity.
The Christians should rejoice at the Incarnation of the Divine Word and the elevation of Mary to divine Motherhood, which raises her above the highest rank of the Angels.
The Feast of the Annunciation was introduced in the early times of Christianity.
