I've also heard of the Assumption of Mary, but I didn't realize that was the belief she was taken body and soul into heaven. I guess the pope just decided this in the 1950s.

They also believed she never sinned, ever. Impossible. Only God is this infallible.

Haha amen to that. To be honest, I’m not sure. I am assuming since they got married once the menstruated she was probably 12 or 13. He had a previous wife and other kids that were adults, so probably 50s-60s. Mary’s cousin Elizabeth and Aaron (St. John the Forerunner’s parents) were in their 80s.

edit I looked it up and some early Church writings put St. Joseph in his 80’s.
