Lesson Vocabulary

Annunciation: The Annunciation is when the Archangel Gabriel announced to Mary that she would be the Mother of Jesus.
Fiat: “Let it be done.” Mary’s “yes” to God is her Fiat. It is her complete obedience to God, allowing His will to be done in her life.
Mother of God (Theotokos): A title for Mary that describes her motherhood of Jesus, who is fully human and fully God. Theotokos is Greek for “Mother of God.”
Grace: Grace is the free gift of God’s love and life in our souls that is given to us by the Holy Spirit.
Immaculate Conception: (n.): From the beginning of her life, the Virgin Mary was saved from Original Sin so that she could bear the Son of God within her. Mary was prepared by God to be a holy vessel for our salvation
Assumption: God had to help Mary go to Heaven. Jesus is the only person who didn’t need help going to Heaven.
