The Presentation of Mary (feast day: Nov. 21) is an ancient feast commemorating Our Lady’s dedication to God in the temple when she was a child. It has become an integral part of our Church’s pious tradition. Father Chris Alar, MIC, traces its background, noting that it reflects the spiritual journey of every believer, inviting us to offer ourselves fully to God.
