    Nativity (birth) of Our Lady


    08/09/2020

    This is the day the Catholic Church marks the birth of Mary, the mother of Jesus - Our Lady.    St. Julie had such a devotion to Our Lady that she named the order of nuns she founded the Sisters of Notre Dame!   Notre Dame is, of course, French for Our Lady.

    It's a perfect day to sing Happy Birthday - and also to say the Hail Mary!  CLICK HERE to join in with the video doing just that!

    This is a video (1:30) to watch, reflect on and discuss:


    A PRAYER FOR THIS DAY:

    God of all things,

    we give thanks for the chance for an education

    which is denied to so many around the world

    because of poverty, custom or discrimination.

     

    Help us to appreciate the value of learning

    which helps us understand the wonders of creation.

    Help us to use what we learn to make life better

    for ourselves and our fellow human beings.

     

    We ask this in your Holy Name. AMEN
