A bunch of my Mexican elementary students came to me today in excitement about the birthday of 'The Mother of Us All'. Their English is not necessarily very good so I couldn't quite understand, but are they talking about Mary, the mother of Jesus? Does she have a BD? And is it celebrated today by the RCs? (I assume its RC since many of the Mexican population here is RC) What is it called? Is this a new thing?

What was interesting was that when I expressed confusion, they began to ask if I even believed in God! And when I told them that the Bible says that Eve is the mother of us all, they had no idea what I was talking about. Maybe 'Eve' is something different in Espanol.
