OSV Kids Discover: Mary

Who is Mary, Really?

You know she’s the Mother of Jesus, but how much do you know about Mary’s life and what the Church teaches about her?

In Discover Mary, you will meet the Blessed Virgin as the woman of faith at the heart of God’s plan of salvation. Aided by maps, timelines, fun facts, and beautiful images, young readers will:

Learn about what life was like for the first-century Jewish girl God chose to be the Mother of His Son.
Walk through the Bible’s key moments of salvation history through Mary’s eyes.
Unpack what Catholics believe about Mary–and why.
Explore how the Church has honored Mary across the centuries with feast days, devotions, and prayers.
Unlock the meaning behind Mary’s titles, symbols, and prayers.
Discover how Mary has continued to be a loving mother through approved apparitions around the world and see how her messages still matter today.

Discover Mary invites children–and their families–to join in the Church’s rich Marian tradition and inspires them to make the Mother of God an important part of their lives.

I’m author Colleen Pressprich, a wife and mom with a passion for helping other families grow their domestic church.

The site gets it’s name from Therese’s desire to find the easy way to Heaven, the elevator that is the Arms of Christ, and I often find myself clinging to St. Therese’s wisdom during the tough seasons of motherhood. She has been a dear friend of mine for over a decade and constantly calls me deeper and challenges me in my faith journey. Her simple confidence in the Lord is what I strive for in my own life, and I admire her for her ability to rest in the Love of God always. Her testimony that her vocation is to love, is a battle cry this broken world needs, and somewhat of a family motto over here at our house.
