Free Printable Feast of the Immaculate Conception Coloring Pages, Lessons, Activities

December 8 marks the Feast of the Immaculate Conception. It falls during advent, a lesser penitential season of the Catholic church. The Immaculate Conception is one of six recognized Holy Days in the Catholic and Orthodox liturgical calendars. When Our Lady appeared to Bernadette Soubirous in Lourdes, France, she called herself  the "Immaculate Conception." That dogma was being debated in the Vatican.
