The Holy House of Loretto

On Tuesday, March 25, we marked one of most important feast days of the Church, the Annunciation, the day when Mary said ‘Yes’ to the Angel Gabriel – thus to God’s plan for her life – and the Word was made flesh, and our Redeemer was conceived – the one whose passion, death and Resurrection we will commemorate in Holy Week and Easter Sunday. I mention this because this week, instead of an interview, I present a special on the Holy House of Loreto – a beautiful and historical shrine in Italy built to house the dwelling in which Mary received the Angel Gabriel, in which the Annunciation took place. How did that home come to Italy from the Holy Land? (Re-Air)
