In the first Joyful Mystery, the Annunciation, the angel Gabriel announces to Mary that she will bear Jesus, the son of God. We should be thankful to God to come among us as a man to save us from sin. We should also pray to Mary that we will have the same faithful obedience that she did in heeding God’s call without question.

Catholics celebrate the Feast of the Annunciation on March 25. This is the day that Mary agreed to become the Mother of Jesus. This incarnation (the word became flesh and dwelt among us) is one of the most important tenets of the Catholic faith.
