Brought to life

“For just as in Adam all die, so too in Christ shall all be brought to life, but each one in proper order: Christ the firstfruits; then, at his coming, those who belong to Christ.” (1 COR 15: 22-23)

Today we celebrate the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. “In Christ shall all be brought to life, but each one in proper order: Christ…then…those who belong to Christ.” Our Lady was first with Him, and she was the first who followed Him. Always united by love and by the will of the Father, always in her mission and always for us,her Assumption should draw us even closer to her.

“Mary is taken up to heaven; a chorus of angels exults.” (Gospel Acclamation)
