] Thanks, Kate that was great. Do Catholics still say their "Hail Mary": "Blessed art Thou among women"? To me, it would sound strange "Blessed are You among women".


I am pretty sure that I learned it as a six-year-old as "Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus," but it is almost always recited still as "Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus." I guess old habits die hard.
