THE FEAST OF THE IMMACULATE CONCEPTION
OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY
The Feast of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary is celebrated on
December 8th. Many people believe that the feast celebrates Jesus’ conception, but in fact
it celebrates Mary’s Immaculate Conception; the fact that Mary was, from the very first
moment of her existence (her conception), without sin, and chosen to be the Mother of
Jesus.
This feast is a holy day of obligation.
Mass is available in Kilcullen parish church 9:30am.
