Annunciation

We usually celebrate the Annunciation of Our Lord on March 25, but since March 25 fell on Sunday this year, we celebrate the Annunciation on March 26. This is a big day for Christians because this is the day that the Word became flesh. Mary had a big role in all of this. She could have said, "No, I don't want to do this". Angel Gabriel announced to Mary that she has been choosen to carry Jesus. Mary responded with, "Be it done unto me according to Your Will." If only all of us could response in such a giving way the world would be so much better off.
