“Through Mary’s yes, through her consent to be the Mother of God, the Son of God was made flesh in her most pure and virginal womb by work of the Holy Spirit; and the One who before was only God, then became True God and True Man, and Mary, without losing her virginity, was elevated to the almost infinite dignity of true Mother of God... Oh Most Blessed Virgin! How grateful we must be for your obedience to the orders of the Most High! Because of that obedience, you are Mother of God, and God is our brother, and you also are our Mother and Advocate because, although you were just our sister through the condition Adam’s nature, from this moment you are Mother of all of God’s sons and brothers of Jesus Christ.”   -St.  Henry De Osso
