"Traditional Catholic Church"

Commonly Called Candlemas- Day.

Today the Traditional Catholic Church celebrates the Feast of, "Purification of the Blessed Virgin Mary." On this day the traditional Catholic Church celebrates the presentation of Jesus in the temple, and the obedience and humility both of Mary and her divine Son, who though not subject to the law in regard to purification and presentation, yet subjected themselves to it. Hence this feast is called the Purification of the Blessed Virgin Mary. In common speech we call it also Candlemas, because on this day the candles required for the divine service are blessed and carried in procession.
