At age four, Mary, the mother of Jesus of Nazareth, made her first
journey. Accompanied by her mother Anne, her father Joachim, her
sister Mary Heli, and her niece Mary Cleophas, Mary went to
Jerusalem for her Presentation to the Temple. Some of the other
journeys that folowed included trips to Sephoris, Bethlehem,
Matarea, and Heiropolis as well as many other trips to Jerusalem.
When her son, Jesus, began his public ministry, Mary moved from
Nazareth to Capharnaum. With her friends, the Holy Women, she
followed Jesus as he travelled around Galilee and throughout the
Holy Land. Ultimately, Mary followed Jesus to Golgotha and the foot
of the cross. After the Crucifixion and Ascension, Mary relocated
to Ephesus, Turkey. She travelled to Jerusalem and back again to
Ephesus before ending her earthly life there. The Journeys of Mary
is the story of Mary's life and the life, Passion, and death of her
son. In Part I of a trilogy, Mary leaves for Ephesus. As she
travels with St. John the Evangelist and her maidservant Leah, Mary
reflects on her early life and the journeys she took with her
husband, St. Joseph. With him as her escort, Mary travelled to
visit her cousin Elizabeth in the hill country around Sephoris. As
the wife of Joseph, she travelled to Bethlehem where her son was
born. When the life of Jesus is threatened, Joseph takes Mary and
the child to Egypt where they lived for many years until their
return to Nazareth. The Journeys of Mary is the story of both the
interior journey that Mary takes as the mother of Jesus and the
exterior journeys she takes as she lives out her life fulfilling
the will of God.
