Homily for the
Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception
Blessed be the
God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with
every spiritual blessing in the heavens, as he chose us in him, before the
foundation of the world, to be holy and without blemish before him.” Today commemorates the Solemnity of the
Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary. We are reminded that the Blessed Mother was
conceived in Anna’s womb without original sin…thus preparing her to be the
Mother of God.
Mary was
chosen specifically by God to be the mother of His son. Like Mary, we too are chosen. While yes we struggle with sin, that shouldn’t
keep us from the mission that our Lord has for us. As we commemorate the Solemnity of the
Immaculate Conception together let us sing the Lord’s praises by living holy
lives. Be humble! Accept God’s love and mercy!
Allow the grace of the Lord to help us
do great things.
