12.11.2005 Implication of the Immaculate Conception on our Lives - As gleaned from the homily of Father Arnol Yap

The Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary is a source of great graces. Countless miracles and favors have never ceased since the apparition at Lourdes have come to us. Whoever desires to obtain special favors from the Blessed Mother should not hesitate to ask from her through the Immaculate Conception. In order to experience God's aid and protection, we should not only turn to the Sacred Heart of Jesus but also confidently venerate and invoke the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

Four thousand years before she appeared on earth, she was the aurora of the day of Redemption. God Himself announced to her to our fallen parents in paradise as the sinless, ever holy Mediatrix.
