Father Charles tells us that this special feast day has many lessons for us.
It teaches us the deep truths about our own humanity.
It teaches us that life begins at conception. That God works in us from the very first moments of our life.
It teaches us that sin is not part of our human nature. That we were first created without sin.
Mary was without sin, but she was fully human.
That every gift from God to us also carries a responsibility. These gifts are not only for us, but to be used in the service of others. Mary's Immaculate Conception was not primarily for her. It was for her Son and for all of us. That we should offer everything up back to God, day by day, for His plan for planet Earth.
Lovely words for this beautiful feast of our Blessed Mother.
