A presence that is prevented from all sin, known as the Immacu- late Conception. Mary was preserved from Original Sin by the foreseen merits of Jesus, her Son and her Redeemer. She is the first redeemed, created by God as a fitting dwelling place for His Son. The Church teaches us that God endowed Mary’s soul with sanctifying grace from the first moment of her conception. She has never been, not even for a moment, under the power of sin. Therefore she is called “Immaculate” that is having no stain of sin in her soul. Children tend to imitate their par- ents. Our Lady is our Mother. Let us imitate her sinlessness, as at the wedding feast of Cana she tells us: “Do whatever Jesus tells you.” Have a blessed week, Canon Benoît Jayr Rector INSTITUTE OF CHRIST THE KING SOVEREIGN PRIEST ST STANISLAUS BISHOP & MARTYR PARISH AǏǏǐǖǏDŽdžǎdžǏǕǔ ǂǏDž UǑDŽǐǎNJǏLj EǗdžǏǕǔ WELCOME TO ST.
