Scripture Readings August 15, 2021
Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary First Reading: Revelations 11:19a; 12:1-6a, 10ab There appeared a woman clothed with the sun, crowned with twelve stars, having the moon beneath her feet. Her newborn son went not to the huge red dragon, but to God and His throne. God’s kingdom and the authority of his Anointed One have come.
Second Reading: 1 Corinthians 15:20-27 Paul reminds us that in Christ all is brought to life. At Christ’s coming, all who belong to Christ will be part of the kingdom handed over to the Father. Christ will destroy all his enemies, the last one being death.
Gospel: Luke 1:39-56 When Mary greets Elizabeth, her child leaps in her womb. Elizabeth calls Mary blessed among women and commends her faith in the Lord’s words. Mary praises God for his greatness and mercy, his concern for the lowly and the hungry, his promise of mercy to Abraham and his children forever.
