Assumption Day: \"The stupendous reality of Mary's Assumption manifests and confirms the unity of the human person and reminds us that we are called to serve and glorify God with our whole being, soul and body,\" Pope Francis.<\/p>\n

Importance of the Mystery of the day of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary<\/h2>\n

The Virgin Mary<\/a> is full of grace. The intensity and nature of her graces are different throughout her life; one is the grace at her Conception, another at the Encarnacion<\/a>another in the Assumption of Mary into heaven. In the latter, the Virgin Mary receives the fullness of holiness.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

History of the Feast of the Assumption of Mary<\/h2>\n

The celebration of the Feast of the Assumption of Mary is an ancient feast celebrated in Jerusalem since the 6th century in honor of the Mother of God, probably recalling the consecration of a church in her honor.<\/p>\n

This feast, a century later, spread throughout the East under the name of the Dormition of St. Mary and celebrates her passing from this world and Mary's assumption into heaven.<\/p>\n

The dogma of the Assumption\u00a0<\/h2>\n

Pope Pius XII, in 1950, declared the Assumption of Mary a dogma of faith. The Virgin Mary, by a special privilege of Almighty God, did not experience corruption: her body, glorified by the Holy Trinity, was united to the soul, and Mary was assumed into heaven, where she reigns alive and glorious, together with Jesus, to glorify God and intercede for us.<\/p>\n

In the Apocalypse we can read the passages that relate the Assumption of the Virgin Mary into heaven: \"A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, the moon at her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars (Rev 12:1).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

And we, prompted by the liturgy at the vigil Mass of this feast, acclaim Our Lady with these words:\u00a0Gloriosa dicta sunt de te, Maria, qu\u00e6 hodie exaltata es super choros angelorum.<\/em>Blessed are you, Mary, for today you have been raised above the choirs of angels and, together with Christ, you have attained eternal triumph.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The day of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary in Christian life<\/h2>\n

The Church looks to Mary to contemplate in her what the Church is in her mystery, in her \"pilgrimage of faith,\" and what she will be at the end of her journey, where she awaits, \"for the glory of the Most Holy and indivisible Trinity,\" \"in communion<\/a> with all the saints\" she whom she venerates as the Mother of her Lord and as her own Mother.<\/p>\n

The Assumption of Mary, Our Lady proposes to us the reality of this joyful hope. We are still pilgrims, but Our Mother has preceded us and is already pointing out to us the end of the path: she repeats to us that it is possible to arrive and that, if we are faithful, we will arrive. Because the Blessed Virgin is not only our example: she is the help of Christians. And at our request -Monstra te esse Matrem<\/em>-She does not know how, nor does she want to refuse to care for her children with maternal solicitude. It is Christ who passes, 177.<\/em><\/p>\n

Mary fulfilled in an exemplary way the will of God in her life and that is what led her to reach the glory of God. The Assumption of the Virgin<\/a> is an example for all Christians.<\/p>\n

On Earth we all want to reach God. This is our hope. The Virgin Mary has already achieved this. What she has achieved encourages us. Mary had enormous trust in God and her heart was full of God.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
