This weekend we celebrate a Holy Day of Obligation as well - the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. This Solemnity celebrates that fact that when Mary died, she was taken up into heaven in her body and is with the Father and her Son in the Kindgom. Mary is our mother and we want to grow in our faith in Jesus, let us go to his Mother. Mother Mary, please pray for us now, always and at the hour of our death. Amen
