Mary information

The gospel of Matthew and Luke in the New Testament and the Quran describe Mary as a virgin.
In Matthew and Luke she is betrothed to Joseph.  According to Christian Theology she conceived
Jesus through the Holy Spirit while still a virgin. She accompanied Joseph to Bethlehem where
Jesus was born.
According to Catholic and Orthodox teachings, at the end of her earthly life her body was Raised
directly into Heaven; this is known in the Christian West as the 
assumption .
Mary has been venerated since early christian and is considered by millions to be the most meritorious
saint of the religion. She is said to have miraculously appeared  to believers many times over the
centuries. The Eastern and Oriental Orthodox Catholic, Anglican, and Lutheran churches believe
that Mary, the mother of Jesus, is the theotokos (Mother of God) (Greek: Θεοτόκος, romanized:
Theotokos, lit. 'God-bearer'). There is significant diversity in the Marine beliefs and devotional
practices of major Christian traditions. The Catholic Church holds distinctive Marian dogmas,
namely her status as the Mother of God, her Immaculate Conception , her perpetual virginity,
and her Assumption into heaven. Many Protestants minimise Mary's role within Christianity, basing
their argument on the relative brevity of biblical references.
All of this information came for bible gate way and Wikipedia.
