08/15/24 Assumed Into Heaven

Homily from the Solemnity of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Body and soul in Heaven.

The fact of the Assumption is the greatest reminder that all those who have died in Christ are meant to rise with Christ. All of us will get our bodies back and we will rise on the Last Day; some to the Resurrection of Glory and others to the Resurrection of Shame.
