A Holy Meeting
Shortly after the Angel Gabriel relayed to Mary that she was carrying the Son of God, the Blessed Mother met with her cousin Elizabeth- who was carrying John the Baptist. Today, this event is known as the Feast of the Visitation in which the Angel Gabriel responds to Mary’s questioning of her ability to miraculously conceive a child by stating No word shall be impossible with God”. With God’s words in her heart, the Blessed Mother visits her elderly cousin Elizabeth who is carrying John the Baptist.
Miracles
The miraculous conception of Jesus and John the Baptist are cemented in the meeting of these mothers. Upon the sight of Mary, it has been noted that Elizabeth felt a leap in her womb from her unborn child. From this moment, Elizabeth knew Mary was carrying the Son of God
