    Four Dogmas of

    MARY
    Theotokos: Mary is the Mother of God

    By affirming Mary is the


    Mother of God, we are
    affirming the most
    fundamental Christian
    truth: Jesus is God.
    Perpetual Virginity
    God became man in Mary’s womb. Mary fulfilled Old
    Testament prophecies by miraculously conceiving and
    giving birth to Jesus as a virgin, and she maintained her
    virginity throughout the rest of her time on earth. Her
    perpetual virginity celebrates that amazing moment
    when God became man.

    “Mary said to the angel, ‘How can this be, since I


    am a virgin?’ The angel said to her, ‘The Holy
    Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the
    Most High will overshadow you; therefore the
    child to be born will be holy; he will be called Son
    of God.” -Luke 1:34-35
    Immaculate Conception
    Mary was different from the moment she was conceived in
    her mother’s womb. While we inherited the sin and
    brokenness of Adam and Eve, Mary was saved from that
    original sin.

    God saved Mary from ever having sin


    and brokenness in the first place. How
    appropriate that the woman who
    carried God in her womb would be
    pure and sinless!
    Assumption of Mary

    God granted Mary yet another gift. At “A great portent appeared


    the end of her time on earth, Mary
    was taken (or “assumed”) body and in heaven: a woman
    soul into heaven. This means Jesus clothed with the sun, with
    and Mary are the only two people in
    heaven who are there in both body the moon under her feet,
    and soul. Jesus chose to honor and
    give his mother this glory in heaven.
    and on her head a crown
    of twelve stars.”
    -Revelation 12:1
    ...more about Mary

    Mary suffered with Jesus. As co-redemptrix, Now in heaven, our mother loves us as
    we acknowledge her intimate cooperation with mediatrix and advocate. This means Mary
    Jesus in the redemption of humanity, in his tirelessly brings our needs to her son, and
    amazing sacrifice for us on the cross. She bore gives us his graces. Whatever we’re
    him, raised him, supported him in his ministry, struggling with or whatever our loved ones
    and walked with him every step of the way to are struggling with, we can bring to Mary.
    his passion and death.

    “Woman, here is your son . . . Here is your mother.”


    -John 19:26b
