I would also like to find a photo of it. Apparently my husband's ancestor was responsible for this and we just recently found out. I know it was carved in Germany and brought to Canada. I do not know who did the carving and why.
I suggest you contact the parish directly.
With love in Christ.

Matthew 1:24-25 It is clear that she had done it with him "After Jesus Was Born".(AKA Joseph isn't the biological father of jesus,for Jesus is son of God).
I was raised baptist. and was taught that she did have children AC --- however my curiosity in the catholic beliefs. and now i've got my self stuck in a really tiny parking space.-- when jesus returns to nazareth it says that he was greeted by his brothers and sisters. my catholic bible says in the notes that the word brother and sister could mean cousin in hebrew... but if that were true, wouldn't they have Just said cousin like the did when Mary "Went to visit he COUSIN?" that always weighs on my mind.

I've always wondered what was the fate of that Mary since she was the first to preach the "good news".
Or should I say "tell". :)
Yes, she is.
I know the Catholic church was the first church; I just don't understand the prayers to Mary and the Saints. Could some Catholics help me out on this one?
Catholics ask saints to intercede for us with God. If we can ask living people to pray for us, surely we can ask the saints, because they are with God and in God in Heaven. This is not "invoking the dead": the saints are not "dead", but are fully alive in Christ and with Christ (more alive than you and I are right now!).
Secondly, Catholics do not "worship" the saints. We honour and venerate them, but this is fundamentally distinct from "worship", which is an act of adoration which we can only give to God Himself (to the Blessed Trinity). It is expressly forbidden, in the Catholic Church, to give "worship" to anyone other than God, since this is one of the 10 Commandments.
We ask saints to pray for us because we are One Body in Christ. St. Paul speaks about the Church as the Mystical Body of Christ, and St. Augustine develops this by saying: "Christ is the Head; we are the members, of the same Body". This unity in Christ means that we can intercede for one another in a very particular way. This mutual intercession is the fruit of love: love of God and love of neighbour.
As for the "when did the Church begin..." part of the question, the answer is: ALWAYS, i.e. from the beginning. This is because the Church has always realized that all her members are One Body in Christ, through our common baptism: we die and are raised with and in Him.
I hope this helps you. Good luck with your search. I pray for you.
For instance, this is the Sanctuario de San Antonio in Makati in the Philippines ...

Thanks!
Usually on each side of the altar will be placed The Blessed Virgin and St Joseph....but a Crucifixion of Jesus is in the center of the altar.
Her soul magnifies the Lord (Luke 1:46-55)! Think of what that means for just a moment.
Everything about Our Lady points straight back to the Father, Whose faithful daughter she is; to the Son, Whose mother she is; and to the Holy Ghost Who overshadowed her. There is no one in all of History whose relationship with God is as complex, fulfilled, and achingly beautiful as Mary's. She is not only the greatest of Saints, she is our Mother, as Jesus is our Brother and Savior. In honoring her, we honor Him -- and imitate Him, as we are admonished to both honor our parents and imitate Christ, Who loved His Mother. Our relationship with Mary is that of a child to a blessed Mother who was given to us as Jesus gave her to John at the Cross. She is our spiritual Mother (Revelation 12:17 -- And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ), and she wants to pray for us.
The Hail Mary Prayer
Hail, Mary, Full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the Fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now, and at the hour of our death.

RCIA : bSt/b. bMary#39;s Catholic Church/b
Friends:
Within a few weeks, we will be starting the Parish RCIA Program. This year, Brandon & Jennifer Kaetzeol will be in charge of it. Newly married (June 20th!), they will be back soon and ready to get started. In the meantime, all of us have work to do.
Experience has taught us clearly that people become members of the Catholic Church because someone invited them or spoke to them about it. All of us have friends or relatives who have indicated in some small way their interest in the Church. Maybe they have accompanied us to Church on occasion or maybe they have asked us a sincere question about the Church. It might even be a spouse who has no affiliation with any other church and St. Mary’s is the only church he/she knows. I encourage you to take the initiative and asked her/him about it. This person just might be waiting for someone to ask! Imagine — if every parishioner were to speak to just one person!
