HAPPY FEAST DAY!
THE IMMACULATE CONCEPTION OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY
“Today we contemplate the humble girl of Nazareth who, by an extraordinary and ineffable privilege, was preserved from the contagion of original sin and from every fault, so that she could be a worthy dwelling-place for the Incarnate Word. In Mary, the New Eve, Mother of the New Adam, the Father’s original, wondrous plan of love was re-established in an even more wondrous way. Therefore the Church gratefully acclaims: THROUGH YOU, IMMACULATE VIRGIN, THE LIFE WE HAD LOST WAS RETURNED TO US. YOU RECEIVED A CHILD FROM HEAVEN, AND BROUGHT FORTH TO THE WORLD A SAVIOUR.” — Pope St. John Paul II
