Movie Review of “Full of Grace,” about Mary, mother of God (Jesus Christ)

         I thought the movie full of grace was excellent and of value to all Christians up until the last few minutes, which were not suitable for Catholics learning the faith, in that it showed the Virgin Mary being carried on a stretcher covered and presumably dead. Catholics believed not only in the virgin birth… Continue reading Movie Review of “Full of Grace,” about Mary, mother of God (Jesus Christ)
