Catholic Parishes of the Immaculate Conception Bicester and Holy Trinity Hethe Celebrate the Feast of the Immaculate Conception
December 8th Marks a Holy Day of Obligation
Catholics Believe in the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary
The WEB Catholic Parishes of the Immaculate Conception Bicester and Holy Trinity Hethe will celebrate the feast of the Immaculate Conception on December 8th. This holy day of obligation commemorates the Catholic belief that the Blessed Virgin Mary was conceived without original sin.
The doctrine of the Immaculate Conception holds that Mary was preserved from all stain of original sin from the first moment of her conception. This belief is based on the Church's teaching that Mary was chosen by God to be the mother of Jesus Christ, and that she was therefore given the grace to be free from sin from the beginning of her life.
The feast of the Immaculate Conception is a reminder of Mary's unique role in salvation history. She was the one who was chosen to bear the Son of God, and she was given the grace to be free from sin so that she could be a worthy vessel for the Savior.
The feast of the Immaculate Conception is a day of great joy and celebration for Catholics. It is a day to reflect on Mary's unique role in salvation history, and to ask for her intercession in our own lives.
