St. Elizabeth, the cousin of Mary, is often celebrated for her virtues of faith, humility, and hospitality. She demonstrated profound faith by accepting her miraculous pregnancy in her old age and recognizing the significance of Mary's visit and the child she carried. Her humility is evident in her joyful acknowledgment of Mary's role as the Mother of God, exclaiming, "Blessed are you among women." Additionally, her hospitality is highlighted in her warm welcome of Mary, creating a space for the two women to share their unique experiences of divine grace.
