Adoration
Friday 7:30am-8:30am
Come and spend one hour with our Lord!
Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary The Feast of the Assumption is one of the most important
feast days of the year and a Holy Day of Obligation on the
official Roman Catholic Church calendar.
By tradition, the holy day is observed every August 15th.
This year, the Feast of the Assumption occurs on
Saturday, August 15, 2020.
According to Roman Catholic theology, Mary was
"assumed body and soul into heavenly glory" several
years after her son, Jesus, ascended into heaven.
The importance of this event in Mary's life is only surpassed by her role in the virgin birth of Jesus Christ. The moment of Mary's ascension into heaven has been depicted in dozens of painting masterpieces and became a central theme in Renaissance art.
