Saturday, August 15-The Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary
Assumption of the Virgin -1665-70 by Juan Carreño de Miranda
Museo del Prado, Madrid
The Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary was already being celebrated on 15 August in the 5th century. It bore the sense of Our Lady’s “Birth into heaven”, or in the Byzantine tradition, her “Dormition”. The feast began to celebrated in Rome in the middle of the 7th century. It was not until 1 November 1950, that Pope Pius XII proclaimed the Dogma of Mary’s assumption body and soul into heaven. In the Apostles’ Creed, we profess our faith in the “Resurrection of the body” and in “life everlasting”. This is the ultimate goal and meaning of our life’s journey. This promise of faith is already accomplished in Mary, who is the “sign of sure hope and comfort” (Preface). Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary - Vatican News

The Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary falls on Saturday, August 15, this year. Although the Assumption is normally a Holy Day of Obligation, the obligation does not apply this year. Parishioners are invited to attend Daily Mass according to our regular Saturday schedule.
All parishioners are also warmly invited to accompany the Blessed Virgin Mary on her feast day by joining us for the Rosary at 4:00 PM in the church.
Together, we will celebrate the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary by praying the Glorious Mysteries of the Rosary, honoring Our Lady and thanking God for her faithful witness and loving intercession.
