The Church prolongs during eight days (an Octave) The Feast of Mary's Victory over the devil and repeats The Mass Celebrated on 8 December.

The most important Feasts of The Virgin are The Assumption and The Immaculate Conception, both Feasts of The First-Class and both with an Octave.

That is why each day The Creed is said during The Octave, that Profession of Faith fixed at The First Council of Constantinople (381 A.D.), which was only Chanted when the attendance in Church was very large.

Let us prepare for The Birth of Christ in our hearts by adorning them with a little of His Mother's Purity.

Mass: As on The Feast of The Immaculate Conception.
Commemoration: Of The Feria.
Commemoration: Of Saint Melchiades from Mass: Státuit.
Creed: On account of The Feast of The Immaculate Conception.
Preface: Of The Blessed Virgin Mary.
