JESUS GROWS WEEK TO WEEK
The feast of the Annunciation of the Lord was celebrated this year on Monday, April 8th. We remember the angel Gabriel appearing to Mary, a virgin and conceived without sin, and announcing that she will be the mother of Jesus, our Savior. In honor of this feast day and to remember and pray for all mothers and babies, we will weekly track until Christmas Day (9 months) the growth of Jesus in Mary’s womb.
November 3rd – Week 33
By 33 weeks, a baby’s brain and nervous system are completely developed and control some bodily functions. Baby Jesus’ skin is becoming smoother and softer rather than red and transparent. He is now
about the size of a pineapple and approaching 5 lbs.
Compassionate and Gracious God, thank you for the wonder of children, and the gifts of motherhood and new life. Amen
