How do I explain "All have sinned vs. immaculate conception?

[srageralde]

hi,

Am a believer of the immaculate conception. However, I have some trouble understanding the bible verse - “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God”.

How do I explain this that Mary did not sin?

Thanks and happy new year!
