God chose to give us the gift of our Lord Jesus Christ through our Blessed Mother Mary, and we honour her un-der her most exalted title—Mother of God—during the Christmas season. This great feast day is a holy day of obligation for Catholics. Along with Christmas day it is the only non-Sunday Mass that we are obliged to attend each year.
