| Elizabeth comes to meet Mary |
The gracious Lady Mary from Nazareth gave her permission to God to come to earth as her tiny Baby.
She was so excited to be having such a wonderful Baby, the Son of God.
Mary went to visit her cousin Elizabeth who was going to have another blessed child, John the Baptist.
As Mary went on a donkey to visit Elizabeth, she passed through fields where labourers worked among the crops.
She saw hills near Nazareth, and stopped near water.
It was such fun to be going visiting.
When Mary reached the little village house of Zachariah and Elizabeth, her cousin was so thrilled to see her that she came with her hands outstretched to greet holy Mary.
Elizabeth said these beautiful words, 'Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus.'
We say these words in the Hail Mary, and remember when Elizabeth honoured Mary as the Mother of Jesus the Son of God.
