Lesson Vocabulary

  • Mediatrix of Grace
    :
    Title for Mary that describes her instrumental role in our salvation as the Mother of God. Her “yes” to God allowed God’s plan for salvation to be completed in His Son, Jesus Christ. Therefore, she acted as a mediator (mediatrix), or go between, of God’s grace. As Queen of Heaven, Mary continues to mediate all graces that come to us through her son, Jesus Christ. Mary’s unique cooperation with her son in no way diminishes His own mediation, but flows from it, depends entirely on it, and draws all its power from it.
  • Spouse of the Holy Spirit
    :
    Title for Mary that describes her close relationship with the Holy Spirit. Mary became the Mother of God by the power of the Holy Spirit.
  • Visitation
    :
    The Gospel story of Mary’s visit to her cousin Elizabeth shortly after the Angel Gabriel had appeared to Mary to announce the Incarnation. At their meeting, the child in Elizabeth’s womb, John the Baptist, leapt for joy in the presence of the unborn Jesus.
