The Annunciation of the Angel Gabriel to Mary 1st Joyful Mystery of the Rosary

In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a town in Galilee called Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man named Joseph, of the House of David; and the virgin's name was Mary. He went in and said to her, "Rejoice, so highly favoured! The Lord is with you." She was deeply disturbed by these words and asked herself what this greeting could mean, but the angel said to her, "Mary, do not be afraid; you have won God's favour. Listen! You are to conceive and bear a son, and you must name him Jesus. He will be great and will be called Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his ancestor David; he will rule over the House of Jacob for ever and his reign will have no end." Mary said to the angel, "But how can this come about, since I am a virgin?" "The Holy Spirit will come upon you," the angel answered "and the power of the Most High will cover you with its shadow. And so the child will be holy and will be called Son of God. Know this too: your kinswoman Elizabeth has, in her old age, herself conceived a son, and she whom people called barren is now in her sixth month, for nothing is impossible to God." "I am the handmaid of the Lord," said Mary "let what you have said be done to me." And the angel left her. Mary set out at that time and went as quickly as she could to a town in the hill country of Judah. (Luke 1: v 26-39) The Annunciation - As we contemplate now Mary's yes to God's plans for her life, we pray that we may also open our hearts and minds to God's unique plan and call to each one of us, and that guided by the Holy Spirit and with Mary our mother beside us, we may say 'yes' to God today and every day of our lives.

The 2019 Annual Catholic Appeal will be held in our Parish at all Masses on the weekends of March 23 and 24. The 2019 Annual Catholic Appeal emphasizes what we do together as Catholics to help our sisters and brothers in Northern California. Bishop Soto reminds us that we are all saved by the mercy of our crucified Lord, who shared in our suffering and sacrificed himself for our sake. When we give ourselves through the Annual Catholic Appeal, we join Catholic Charities…and our own parish outreach…to bring the mercy of Christ to those who suffer in the margins.
