THE IMMACULATE CONCEPTION IS A HUMAN BEING — The Most Blessed Virgin Queen and Mother Mary.

The more you know The Blessed Virgin Mary and Her Dignity, the better you know JESUS CHRIST, GOD The Son, King of the Universe, Who created Her to be His Mother.

The Immaculate Conception is The Patroness of the U.S.A., and Her Feast is on December 8th, which is a Holiday of Obligation, which we are to observe, as we do Sundays.  When it falls on a Sunday of Advent, it is transferred to the next day, Monday, as it was December 9, A D. 1531, when Our Lady of Guadalupe appeared, and it was the Feast of Her Immaculate Conception.  No matter what a Bishop says, we have to go to Holy Mass on the transferred Feast of The Immaculate Conception.

Bishop Paprocki queried the Vatican about this and was told that this is the case.

OCTUBRE 19, 2024 19:45ZENIT STAFFDICASTERIES, LITURGY AND DIVINE WORSHIP, LOCAL CHURCH WhatsAppMessengerFacebookTwitterShare Share this Entry (ZENIT News / Washington, 10.19.2024).- A recent clarification from the Vatican’s Dicastery for Legislative Texts has sparked discussions around the U.S. bishops’ policy regarding holy days of obligation. The legal interpretation, issued in response to a query from Bishop Thomas Paprocki of Springfield, Illinois, brings new scrutiny to how certain holy days are observed when their celebrations are moved from Sunday to another day. The Vatican’s letter, dated September 4, was made public in late September and addresses the obligation of Catholics to attend Mass when a solemnity is transferred from its original Sunday date to the preceding Saturday or following Monday. The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) has had a long-standing policy, in effect since 1992, stating that when some holy days are transferred, the requirement to attend Mass is lifted. A Conflict of Interpretations The heart of the issue revolves around whether the obligation to attend Mass remains when a holy day, such as the Immaculate Conception or other solemnities, is moved. Bishop Paprocki, in his role as chair of the USCCB’s Committee on Canonical Affairs, sought clarification from the Vatican: «If a holy day of obligation in Advent, Lent, or Easter is transferred to a Monday, is the obligation still binding?» The response from the Vatican’s Prefect for Legislative Texts, Archbishop Filippo Iannone, made it clear: the obligation remains. Archbishop Iannone stated that Canon Law explicitly lists the solemnities that must be observed as holy days of obligation. These include the Nativity of the Lord, Epiphany, Ascension, Corpus Christi, and other major feasts. “The canon does not allow for exceptions,” he wrote. Thus, even if the celebration is moved, the obligation stands. However, the Vatican letter also recognized the principle of «moral impossibility,» which means that if attending Mass is genuinely impossible for a person, no dispensation is necessary. This would typically apply to serious situations, but minor inconveniences such as back-to-back Masses or workday obligations do not qualify as sufficient cause for missing Mass.
