Feast of the Annunciation
The Feast of the Annunciation, contemporarily the Solemnity of the Annunciation, commemorates the visit of the angel Gabriel to the Virgin Mary, during which he informed her that she would be the mother of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. It is celebrated on 25 March each year.〔("The Feast of the Annunciation", BBC -Religions )〕
It is a principal Marian feast, classified as a solemnity in the Catholic Church.〔(Feast of the Annunciation at EWTN )〕 Two examples in Catholicism of the importance attached to the Annunciation are the Angelus prayer, and the event's position as the first Joyful Mystery of the Rosary.〔(CNA, ''Solemity of the Annunciation of the Lord' )〕
==Biblical narrative==
Here is recorded the "angelic salutation" of Gabriel to Mary, 'Hail, full of grace, the is with thee" (''Ave, gratia plena, Dominus tecum''; Luke 1: 28), and Mary's response to God's will, "Let it be done to me according to thy word" (''fiat mihi secundum verbum tuum''; v. 38). The "angelic salutation" is the origin of the Hail Mary prayer and the Angelus; the second part of the prayer comes from the salutation of Saint Elizabeth to Mary at the Visitation.〔(Holy Family Sisters, ''Annunciation of the Lord'' )〕
