The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary celebrates her being taken body and soul into heavenly glory.
It is a sign of hope for all believers, showing the destiny prepared for those who live in God’s grace.
Mary, the Mother of God, was preserved from corruption as a reward for her pure and faithful life.
This feast reminds us of her closeness to Christ and her role as Queen of Heaven.
She intercedes for us as a loving mother, leading us closer to her Son.
The Assumption is both a mystery of faith and a promise of eternal life.
“God has assumed her into heaven; she shines forth among the saints like the sun.”
— Roman Breviary
