12/8/23 The New Eve

Homily from the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Mary was preserved from sin by the merits of her Son's life, death, and resurrection.

The Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception is a testament to God's goodness. He gives what we need for the mission to which we have been called. And He calls all of us to enter into deeper relationship with the Family of God by cultivating a relationship with Mary, the Mother of God.
