St. Patrick, Kankakee ~ A Viatorian Parish THE ASSUMPTION OF MARY AUGUST 15, 2021 The Solemnity of the Assumption of Mary is celebrated every year on August 15th. This feast commemorates Mary’s Assumption, body and soul, into Heaven. It is a most important Marian feast and today we join her in her happiness. We look forward to the day when we, too, can share it with her. In the meantime, we ask Mary to remember us as we continue our journey on earth and to intercede for us with her Son that we may remain faithful to our call as disciples. May we know God’s will for us at all times and, like Mary, say our unconditional Yes to God. Almighty God, You gave a humble Virgin the privilege of being the mother of your Son and crowned her with the glory of heaven. May Mary’s prayers bring us to the salvation of Christ and raise us to eternal life. We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, God, forever and ever. Amen.
Today highlights Mary's faith. Mary's faith enabled her to recognize the work of God … in her people's history and in her own life. Her openness to God allowed God to work through her so that salvation might come to all. May we be like Mary, open and cooperative in God's plan of salvation.

The wondrous reality of the Assumption of Mary reveals and confirms the unity of the human person and reminds us that we are all called to serve and glorify God with our whole being. Mary’s Assumption holds special meaning and promise for all of us. A simple but very special human, Mary enjoys eternity in Heaven. We too are promised eternal life if we follow Mary’s path of saying Yes to God’s will and being a Christ-bearer to others. May our souls magnify the Lord for the great things he does in our lives and the promise of life eternal won through the death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
