The Glorious Assumption

Greetings to all seekers of the Truth! Today on the Solemnity of Mary’s Assumption I thank all that Christ has done for each one of us. The Assumption reveals what Our Lord will do for those who remain faithful. ”And I will raise you up..” Christ tells us in the sixth chapter of the Gospel of John. Our Lady is raised up with Christ in complete Eucharistic unity. She was the one who conceived the Bread of Life. It was Our Lady’s body and blood that was partaken in the Person of Christ and offered on Calvary. It was Mary’s Son who rose from the dead on the third day. Now the Son, who humbled himself to share in our humanity by taking a human nature through Mary, calls His own mother to Himself. She was created by Him, she gave herself to Him, and now she has been called by Him into the fullness of bodily and spiritual glory in His presence. O Mary, pray for us, pray for each one of us. Amen
