VISITATION OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY
Mary visits her cousin Elizabeth CELEBRATED: MAY 31ST
Dear Mary,
Even though you were pregnant, you rushed to go help your cousin Elizabeth
who needed more help. Despite your cousin being older,
she knelt before you calling you “Blessed among women”, honored that the Mother of God would visit her.
Dear Mother, teach me to love like you, and remind me and the whole world how much you love us;
how much God the Father and Jesus the Son love us.
VISITACIÓN DE LA SANTÍSIMA VIRGEN MARÍA
María visita a su prima Isabel CELEBRADO: 31 DE MAYO
Estimada María,
A pesar de que Usted estaba embarazada, se apresuró a ir a ayudar a su prima Isabel
que necesitaba más ayuda. A pesar de que su prima era mayor, ella se arrodilló
antes de usted y le llamo "Bendita entre las mujeres", y honorada por que la madre de Dios la visitará. Querida madre, enséñame a amar como usted,
y recordarme a mí y todo el mundo lo mucho que Dios el Padre y Jesús el hijo nos ama.

Once completed, place your envelope in the offertory basket during Mass or mail directly to the Diocese of Laredo.
