JESUS

Age: 10

Jesus of Nazareth is the central figure of Christianity.

We Christians believe he is the Son of God and the promised Messiah (or Christ), sent to bring salvation to humanity.

His teachings on love, compassion, forgiveness, and the Kingdom of God have profoundly shaped world history, culture, and ethics.

ANGEL

Age: 100

Angel's greatest game was secret protection.

If Jesus was about to wander into trouble or trip over a tool, Angel's tiny hand, woven from pure light, would gently nudge the boy's shoulder or softly guide a footstep.

Their companionship was a silent, sacred partnership, preparing the carpenter's son for his path with quiet wonder and unwavering love.

MARY

Age: 28

Mary was the embodiment of perfect, nurturing love for her son, Jesus.

From the moment of his miraculous birth, she was the steady anchor in his life, raising him with quiet grace and deep piety in Nazareth.

Mary's mothering was marked by attentive patience and unwavering faith, cherishing every moment and "pondering all these things in her heart," thus creating the ideal environment for the child destined to save the world to grow in wisdom and favor.

GALAXY

Age: 2

Galaxy considered himself the true master of the carpenter's shop, tolerating Jesus's existence only because the boy was so utterly predictable with the morning milk.

If Jesus was too slow to fetch his food, or worse, tried to play fetch with a wood shaving, Galaxy would unleash a tiny, dramatic hiss—the most snarky and impatient sound a cat could make—before vanishing into the rafters, convinced he had just reminded the Son of Man who was really in charge.
