4th Sunday after Pentecost 2017

The Bible records the greetings of St. Gabriel at the Annunciation and St. Elizabeth at the Visitation which the Church has combined into the beautiful prayer of the Hail Mary.  July 2nd commemorates the Blessed Mother generously traveling to assist her cousin during the final months before the birth of St. John the Baptist.  We should imitate Our Lady whenenver God calls us and we should instruct our children to do the same while learning to be humble and grateful.
