The Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception
December 8 is celebrated as the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception in the Roman Catholic Church. This feast commemorates the belief that Mary, the mother of Jesus, was conceived free from original sin. Pope Pius IX officially defined this dogma in 1854 with the proclamation Ineffabilis Deus. Mary’s sinlessness was seen as a divine preparation for her role as the Mother of God. Theologically, this belief underscores the idea that God’s grace can sanctify and prepare individuals for unique missions in salvation history【20†source】【22†source】.
