Virgin Mary
Virgin Mary or Mary the mother of Jesus was born in 15 BCE. Her father, Joachim was a rich person and her mother was Anna. After Mary was born, Joachim made a promise that when Mary would turn three years old, she would be sent to a temple to live there. At the temple, she had a reputation to help others once she finished her chores. If she finished her chores, then she would help give out food to those who are poor and also those who ask for it.

Mary, Joseph and Jesus all moved back to her hometown of Nazareth in 4 BCE after King Herod’s reign. Mary is the only person to remain with Jesus all of Jesus’ life and is the person who is the most written about in the New Testament, apart from Jesus. It is known in history that now Mary did not actually die, but she ascended into heaven in 41 CE, living for 56 years.
Virgin Mary’s connection to the eight beatitudes:
Virgin Mary is an inspirational person who helps others, quite a lot. Even as a young child, she would still finish her chores and continue to help others. After she finishes her chores she would help give out things to those who are poor or for those who ask for it. As a result of helping others, Mary will get rewarded in return. Mary is also known for living a life without sins. People who find pureness in their heart will be able to see God. Since Mary was thought to be cleansed and free from sins, it was thought that she ascended into heaven after living her life on Earth
