Or
Mary is Spotless, and All Beautiful
Today’s proper preface for the solemnity of the Immaculate Conception is a synthesis of this mystery:
For you preserved the most Blessed Virgin Mary
from all stain of original sin,
so that in her, endowed with the rich fullness of your grace,
you might prepare a worthy Mother for your Son
and signify the beginning of the Church,
his beautiful Bride without spot or wrinkle.
She, the most pure Virgin, was to bring forth a Son,
the innocent Lamb who would wipe away our offenses;
you placed her above all others
to be for your people an advocate of grace
and a model of holiness.
And so, in company with the choirs of Angels,
we praise you, and with joy we proclaim: Holy….
A meditation on trust in God, preached by Fr. Eric Nicolai at Lyncroft Centre, Toronto, on the eve of the solemnity of the Immaculate conception.
Music: J. S. Bach, Prelude (Cello Suite No. 3, BWV 1009) on Museopen.org.
Thumbnail: Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, Immaculate Conception, 1767, Prado, Madrid.
