The Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary: greetings in prose, verses and cards.

On September 8, Ukraine celebrates the holiday - the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the Nativity of the Most Holy Mother of God (the Birth of Jesus Christ). This is a universal day of joy, celebrated by both the Orthodox and Catholic churches. In Orthodoxy, it is one of the twelve great church holidays.

Previously, the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary was celebrated on September 21, but after the transition to the new Julian calendar, the date changed. Already in 2023, the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary fell on a new date. It has not changed this year.

History of the holiday

Christians have been celebrating this holiday since the VI century. According to legends, the parents of the Virgin Mary - Joachim and Anne - were a pious couple, but, having been married for 50 years, they had no children. The Jews, who considered infertility a divine punishment for a person's sins, mocked them.

Once at the holiday, a priest in the Jerusalem temple even refused to accept a sacrifice from Joachim, publicly calling him a sinner. His wife heard this and went to her garden.

The man was saddened by this and prayed to God with tears for a long Time. Then an angel appeared to him, prophesying the imminent birth of a child. In response, the old man promised to dedicate the child to God. Meanwhile, Anna also saw an angel and received similar comfort. Soon a girl was born to the couple, whom they named Mary.

The essence of the holiday is to glorify the Blessed Virgin Mary - the first event in a series of those with which the Lord prepared to save mankind. And also that a person must believe and trust in God, even when no one believes in them.
