Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary

[All day event] Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary
Description:
"And coming to her (Mary), he (the angel Gabriel) said, 'H ail, favored one (kecharitomene).'" ~ Luke 1:28

Mary was exempt ed from bodily corruption because, by an entirely singular privilege, she completely overcame sin by her Immaculate Conception. Jesus ascended to He aven by His own power as Creator and LORD. Mary was taken into Heaven by th e power of God, raised aloft by grace, not by nature. Pope Pius said, "C hrist has overcome sin and death by His own death... However, in accord wi th His general rule, God does not wish to grant the full effect of victory over death to the just until the end of time shall have come... Yet God wi shed that the Blessed Virgin Mary be exempt from this general law. For she , by a completely singular privilege, conquered sin in her Immaculate Conc eption, and thus was not liable to that law of remaining in the corruption of the grave, nor did she have to wait for the end of time for the redemp tion of her body (AAS 42.754)." ~ J.M. Guerin
