Stories about Mary - Luke 2:1 - 20

Today in RE we were reading scriptures about Mary. We had to write what it says in the scripture but not word for word. Check down below to read!

 Luke 2:1 - 20 The Birth of Jesus

In this scripture Luke 2:1 - 20 The Birth of Jesus, it’s telling us about how Caesar Augustus issued a decree to take over the Roman world. Then Joseph went to Judea, from the town in Nazareth in Galilee, he then went to Bethlehem. Joseph went there to register with Mary, to be married, because Mary was expecting a baby. While they were still there Mary felt that the baby was coming. Then in seconds he came. This baby was her first born. Mary wrapped him in clothes and put him in a manger. There was no guest room for them to lay the baby down. 

We know this because when Jesus was born he was put in a manger. Mary also introduced Jesus to Joseph. After that there were very happy that they had a baby.

Lastly Mary always trusted the Holy Spirit because of what The Angel Gabriel said. The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.

Stories about Mary - Luke 39-56

 Luke: 39 - 56 Mary Visits Elizabeth

In this scripture reading Luke: 39 - 56 Mary Visits Elizabeth, we find out about Mary visiting Elizabeth. Mary hurried to go to a town in the country Judea. When Mary finally arrived there Mary went to Zechariah’s house. When Mary entered the house Mary greeted Elizabeth and Elizabeth greeted Mary and the baby. Elizabeth said “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the child you will bear!”. Mary was confused on why everyone was greeting her like royalty. 

We know this because in the scripture Mary sounds confused of why Elizabeth and others are greeting Mary like this. Mary answered to Elizabeth “But why am I so favoured, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?”. 

Lastly Elizabeth said “Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill his promises to her!”

Stories about Mary

 Today in RE we were learning about how Mary found out she was having a baby. Not just any baby but the Son of the Most High. If you want to learn more about what we did read down below!.

Luke: 26-38 The Birth Foretold

In this scripture reading Luke: 26-38 The Birth Foretold, it is talking about how Mary’s first encounter with God. The Angel Gabriel was sent by God to go tell Mary about her first child. The Angel Gabriel was in a town called Galilee and went to a town called Nazareth. Gabriel found Mary and said to her “Greetings, you who are highly favoured! The Lord is with you.” When Mary heard him she was confused. Then he told her “You will have a baby and it’s name is Jesus the Son of the Most High…”. Mary answered “How will this be,” Mary asked the angel, “since I am a virgin?”.

We know this because in the bible it says the same thing. It says “Mary will have a baby and it’s name will be Jesus the Son of the Most High”. 

 

Lastly the scripture says “I am fulfilled, I will keep your words.” We know this because in the bible she was really happy to have a baby.
