Mary, mother of Jesus, is told by an angel that she will give birth to Jesus, son of God. She agrees to this lifelong commitment. Mary then visits her relative Elizabeth and helps her. Mary gives birth to Jesus in Bethlehem and raises him as a devoted mother. When Jesus goes missing after a festival, Mary worries as any mother would. They later find him in the temple listening empathically. Mary is present throughout Jesus' life and crucifixion. She is a role model of faith, empathy, and service to others.

was a life long commitment.

though Mary was tired she was happy to help with
any thing that Elizabeth needed

8. THE BIRTH OF

stable in Bethlehem. She gave
her life to raise baby Jesus.
Mary was very happy because
she new he was special.

10. Mary finds Jesus in the
When traveling from the
pass over festival Mary lost
Jesus. Mary was very
worried as a typical mother
would be. Jesus was a very
young boy at the time.Mary
and Joseph found him three
days later listening with
under standing and
empathy in the temple.

12. The Wedding Feast at Cana
Mary and Jesus were at a wedding feast in
Cana. Mary noticed they had run out of wine
this was very embarrassing for the hosts.Mary
spoke gently to Jesus about the situation
Jesus said” I know what I have to do”. Mary
tolled the servants to do what ever he tells
you to do.Jesus turned water into wine his
first miracle Mary new he could do it.

14. MARY AT CALVARY
Mary stayed with Jesus the hole time he
carried his cross even though it was
extremely hard.

16. MARY AS A ROLE MODEL
Mary was a role model because
she persisted to find Jesus in the
temple. She listened with
understanding and empathy when
the angel Gabriel spoke to her.
She worked interdependently with
Elizabeth and there babies Mary
thought flexibly when they were
faced with the problem of no wine

17. PART TWO
I was in my house sweeping the floor on
an ordinary day. I finished sweeping so I
sat down for a brake from work, I felt
relaxed.
Then suddenly an angel of the lord
appeared to me and said” do not be
afraid I have been sent by the lord all
mighty”. I was nerves but I believed and
trusted the angel he said” I bring good
news you are going to have a baby you
will name him Jesus”.
I accepted what the angle said I wondered
when I was going to have the baby.

19. The church hones Mary through singing songs. I have chosen
this song because it tells us the different qualities of Mary.
Some of the qualities are gentle, quit, strong and bright. I
think the meaning of the song is to tell us and explain the
qualities and events in Mary’s life.
Gentle woman, quiet light, morning star
So strong and bright,
Gentle mother peaceful dove
teach us wisdom; teach us love.
You were chosen by the Father:
You were chosen for the Son,
You were chosen from all women
and for woman shining one.
Gentle woman, quiet light, morning star
so strong and bright
gentle mother peaceful dove
teach us wisdom; teach us love
Blessed are you among women
Blessed touch over the true
Blessed they with peaceful spirits
Blessed they with special hearts.
Gentle woman, quiet light,
Gentle woman peaceful dove
Gentle mother, quiet light,
Gentle woman peaceful dove
Gentle woman.......Gentlewoman.........
Gentle woman............Gentle woman

21. ME AND MARY MACKLLOP
I think Mary Mackllop and I both have
the same goal for a better world. I will
try to stop fighting by listening and
helping any one in need of assistance.
I will try to stop bullying by standing
up for people that are being bullied.
Mary Mackillop tried to stop fighting
by treating every one the same. I try
my hardest to follow Mary Mackillop’s
motto never see a need with out doing
something about it
