\n“The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God.”<\/em><\/p>\n

No one ever, since the creation of the world and even until its end, has been born nor will be born in a way that is similar to that of the God-man Jesus Christ.

The power of the Highest has never encompassed anyone, and no woman has ever been sanctified with such completeness and power as the Most Holy Virgin Mary.<\/p>\n
