Today is Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The forerunner of this feast, the Conception of Mary, arose in the Eastern Church in the seventh century. By the eighth century, it had made its way to the Western Church and was renamed the Feast of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary in the 11th century. Pope Pius IX proclaimed it to be a feast of the universal Church in 1854.
Today also happens to be Friday of our fall pledge drive… one more day to make a big push to help us reach our goal!
