Description

A simple and very effective guide for celebrating the Annunciation and Incarnation of the Lord. The Church’s celebration of the Annunciation is believed to date back to the early 5th century, possibly originating at about the time of the Council of Ephesus in 431 AD. The Annunciation has always been celebrated on March 25, exactly nine months before Christmas. The Incarnation and subsequent time that Jesus spent hidden in the womb of Mary is good preparation for understanding the hidden Jesus in the Eucharist.
