The Immaculate Conception

This morning, the alternative prayer for morning prayer (December 8th, The solemnity of the Immaculate Conception) is splendid:


Father,
the image of the virgin is found in the Church
Mary had a faith that your spirit prepared
and a love that never knew sin,
for you kept her sinless from the first moment of her conception
Trace in our actions the lines of her love,
in our hearts her readiness of faith.
Prepare once again a world for your Son
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever.
Amen.
