“Mary’s life on Earth drew to a close. Her eyes were fixed on Heaven. Her heart beat with affection for God; her face shone and a smile was ever on her lips. All at once her heart gave a start, and Mary flew to Heaven, to the embrace of her beloved.”
~Rev. James Alberione, S.S.P., from The Life of The Madonna in Art
It is the feast of the Assumption of Mary, and so we say: we wish you all a blessed and happy Marymass!
