"On the Feast of the Annunciation, we remember how the angel Gabriel appeared to Mary to tell her she would bear God’s Son.

An ordinary, young girl, Mary’s world was turned upside down in this moment, but she did not turn away.

She opened herself to God’s will and answered with a resounding yes to this call. “You see before you the Lord’s servant, let it happen to me as you have said.” (Luke 1:38)

There are many amazing young women who continue to listen to God in their lives and put themselves at the service of others."
