Seven Joys of Mary - Introduction

The seven joys of Mary are usually listed as:
* The Annunciation, including the Visitation.
* The Nativity of Jesus.
* The Adoration of the Magi.
* The Resurrection of Christ.
* The Ascension of Christ to Heaven.
* The Pentecost or Descent of the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles and Mary.
* The Coronation of the Virgin in Heaven.
I’m happy to present a series of less than 30 second reflections on each of the Joys of Mary. They arise from an ancient devotional tradition of medieval literature and art. I look forward to your company over the next 7 days!
We pray, Mother of the living Gospel, wellspring of happiness for God’s little ones, pray for us. Amen. Alleluia!
