Feast of The Immaculate Conception

Fri, Dec. 8, is the Feast of the Immaculate

Conception and is a Holyday of

Obligation. Masses are as follows:

Thurs. Vigil 7:00 p.m. (English)

Fri. 8 and 11 a.m. (English),

7:00 p.m. (Latin).

Condemned for Sins of Omission Why? Because they neglected to do the good

love required them to do. They did not “commit” offenses or infractions of the law; they did

nothing positively destructive. In the presence of suffering, they just heartlessly did nothing. Their sin was

not a sin of “commission” but a sin of “omission.”

But note�these sins of omission ultimately seal the fate of the damned.

There are lots of negative commandments, often expressed as “thou shalt not’s.” But the two most important

commandments are positive “thou shalts”. “You shall love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, soul, and strength and

you shall love thy neighbor as yourself.”
