S. It is the birthday of the Virgin Mary

Today S. The birthday of the Mother of God is St. The birth of the Virgin Mary from Anna.

Qahana.am is a blog that S. The birth of the Virgin is not described in the Bible book, it was handed down to us by the sacred tradition of the Church. The Virgin's parents, Joachim and Anna, did not have a child for a long time, because the latter was barren. And one day, when Anna goes down to the garden to pray, the angel of the Lord suddenly appears and announces that she will have a child, whom all nations will bless. Anna thanks God for listening to her prayers and taking pity on her.

She promises to dedicate her child to God. This same vision also appears to Jehoiakim, announcing the good news. S. The Virgin's father also gives glory to the Most High for receiving that great favor. Anna becomes pregnant, has a daughter, who is called Mariam, that is, the enlightened one. She was the chosen one whom God honored to be the mother of God due to her virtues and merits.

S. The Virgin suffered for her Son, but she never rebelled and opposed God, well aware of the importance of the mission entrusted to her by the Most High. She is the embodiment of a virtuous, faithful mother, the guardian of family sanctity.

The Armenian Church always celebrates the birthday of the Mother of God on September 8.
