To redeem the world from slavery of sin, God took human form and born to virgin Mary. To become mother of God an invitation send to Mary through Angel Gabriel. she believed the word of angel and accepted the will of God, thus Mary partake in the mission of salvation. Mary’s mission started before the birth of Jesus. At the time of Jesus birth multitude angels appeared to shepherd keeping watch over their flock by night and gave good news about the birth of saviour of the world with sign, thus angel were partake in the mission of salvation. Shepherd were filled with fear as they received the message but they reacted immediately and move forward to see what they heard from angel. As they reached Bethlehem they saw baby boy with Mary and Joseph. As said by the angel the baby boy was wrapped by swaddling cloth and lied in the manger. Shepherd were happy and started praising God to sent the saviour to the world and redeem his own people. Probably shepherd shared their witness or good news to wise men, poor people, other shepherd, and animals gathered around the manger, thus shepherd partake in the mission of salvation. Mary stored these precious events into her heart and shared with Jesus disciples in later stage thus today we got an infancy narrative of Jesus.
