Understanding Mary as a Disciple of Jesus

Mary, the blessed Virgin, was the first and greatest disciple of our Lord, setting an example of perfect faithfulness. Her initial yes brought Jesus into the world, making her the Ark of the Covenant. With significant time spent with Jesus from his conception to public ministry, Mary's intercession even inaugurated his public ministry.
