JULY 2 – The Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary
Thursday, July 2, 2026
According to the traditional Roman calendar, the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary celebrates Mary's journey to visit her cousin Elizabeth while carrying Jesus in her womb. At Mary's greeting, Saint John the Baptist leapt for joy before birth, recognizing the presence of the Savior. This beautiful feast reminds us that wherever Mary goes, she brings Jesus, and every Christian is called to do the same.
