Mary as Christ’s First Disciple
“Behold, I am the servant of the Lord. Let it be done to me according to your word.” (Luke 1:38).
What does it mean to be a servant/disciple of Christ?
What did Jesus say are the requirements to be his disciple?
“Mary is held up as an example to the faithful for the way in which in her own particular life she fully and responsibly accepted the word of God and did it….She is worthy of imitation because she was the first and most perfect of Christ’s disciples.” – Pope Paul VI
Cause of our joy, pray for us.
