Product Description
The Virgin Mary of the Annunciation Statue beautifully depicts Mary receiving the Archangel Gabriel’s greeting. He has announced to her a message from God: If she consents, she will become bear the long-awaited Messiah. Mary responds with her “Fiat” – “Let it be done to me as you have said.” Together with the Archangel Gabriel of the Annunciation Statue (beth1571), the Virgin Mary of the Annunciation Statue will be a most exquisite gift for a wedding, wedding anniversary, ordination, ordination anniversary, profession or jubilee of religious vows, and for that special little chapel so dear to you and your community.
The Virgin Mary of the Annunciation Statue – An Astonishing Labor of Love, Faith, and Hope
Composed of dolomite stone and resin, the Virgin Mary of the Annunciation Statue stands 8 inches high. A cloistered community of French nuns designed, molded and finished by hand this statue in their monastery’s atelier. As a true “contemplative in action”, each member of the community prayerfully undertakes an assigned task to bring about the completion of each and every piece. How, where, and by whom the Virgin Mary of the Annunciation Statue is made shows that it is indeed ”culturally authentic” and an astonishing labor of love, faith and hope.
Mary’s “Yes!” – “Let it done to to me as you have said”
Mary said “Yes!” Mary could have said “No” or “Maybe” or “Not yet”, but Mary said “Yes!” As a human being, endowed with freedom, Mary did not have to say “Yes” – God respected her freedom just as much as God respects ours. And even if Mary’s “immaculate conception” meant that she was not affected by “original sin” and was naturally predisposed to obey God’s will freely and joyfully, this does not mean that her response was preordained. Authentic freedom means the freedom to say “Yes” or “maybe” or even “no”. Mary demonstrates for us through her Fiat – through her “Yes!” – what authentic human freedom can look like.
Luke 1:26-38
In the sixth month, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee, to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. The angel went to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.” Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be. But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, you have found favor with God. You will be with child and give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever; his kingdom will never end.” “How will this be,” Mary asked the angel, “since I am a virgin?” The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God. Even Elizabeth your relative is going to have a child in her old age, and she who was said to be barren is in her sixth month. For nothing is impossible with God.” “I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May it be to me as you have said.” Then the angel left her.
