The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary

Today the Church celebrates the solemn feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, when Our Lady was taken body and soul up to heaven.


Mass for the Assumption

• Wednesday, 8/14: 5pm (vigil)
• Thursday, 8/15 (no Confessions): 7am, 8:15am, 5pm, 7pm

Not only is this a great day of celebration on Mary’s behalf, but her Assumption also prefigures each faithful Christian’s heavenly reward.

The Assumption is a Holy Day of Obligation, and all Catholics are to attend Mass on Thursday (or Wednesday evening at 5pm). Masses on Thursday will be celebrated at 7am, 8:15am, 5pm, and 7pm.

Please note: to accommodate the extra Masses, there will be no Confessions on Thursday.
