SOLEMNITY OF THE IMMACULATE CONCEPTION OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY
Principal Patroness of the Philippines
Today, we celebrate the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception, a profound mystery of our faith that reveals the boundless mercy and providence of God. This feast is not about the conception of Jesus in Maryโs womb but about the conception of Mary herself in the womb of her mother, Saint Anne. From the first moment of her existence, Mary was preserved from the stain of original sin, chosen and prepared by God to be the mother of His Son.
Originating in the 7th c. feast of the "Conception of Mary by St. Anne." Pope Clement XI, in his Bull, Commissi Nobis, established this solemnity for the entire Church (1708). Declared Principal Patroness of the Philippines by Pope Pius XII in 1942.
PRAYER: O God, who by the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin prepared a worthy dwelling for your Son, grant, we pray, that, as you preserved her from every stain by virtue of the Death of your Son, which you foresaw, so, through her intercession, we, too, may be cleansed and admitted to your presence. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
