Assumption of Mary – Tuesday, August 15 Vigil Mass at 5:00 PM

Masses at 7:00 AM and 7:00 PM

Dear Parishioners,

In the old city of Jerusalem there are two churches

named "The Dormition of Mary." One is under the auspices of

the Roman Catholic Church, the other under the auspices of the

Greek Orthodox Church. Each claims to be built on the spot

from which the Blessed Mother left this earth upon the

completion of her earthly life. There never had been any

memorial or place of burial revered by the early Christians.

However, from the beginning of the sixth century, various

churches celebrated Mary's bodily assumption into heaven since

there was no explicit reference in scripture to the assumption of

Mary into heaven. There was confusion, since many believed

that death was the result of sin, but then when it was pointed out

that Mary was preserved from sin, and Christ had suffered a

mortal death, the theologians turned to the early Fathers of the

Church to explain the assumption of Mary into heaven. Patristic

evidence gave no evidence of such an assumption, but gave as

the conclusion an argument from convenience or fittingness. It

was fitting that Jesus should have rescued his mother from the

corruption of the body and so "must have" taken her bodily into

heaven. By the middle of the seventh century, four separate

Marian feasts were observed in Rome, the Annunciation, the

Purification, the Assumption and the Nativity of Mary.

While belief in the assumption of Mary bodily to

heaven became an object of belief, it was not until November 1,

1930 that it became a dogma of faith, defined by the church and

from that time on a doctrine which must be believed. For, on

November 1,1930, Pope Pius XII most solemnly described the

crowning event in the life of Mary with these words in the

apostolic constitution Munificentissimus Deus: "The Immaculate

Mother of God, the ever virgin Mary, having completed the

course of her earthly life, was assumed body and soul into

heavenly glory." Thus, defining the dogma of Mary's assumption

Pope Pius wrote the final chapter of the centuries long tradition

in the belief in this mystery.

There is a tradition that the ocean waters hold a special

healing power on the Feast of the Assumption, August 15 and

many flock to the sea to uphold this tradition. We celebrate it as

a holy day of obligation to honor Mary

Sincerely,

Fr John R. Mulvehill

An Alzheimer's Poem

Do not ask me to remember.

Don’t try to make me understand.

Let me rest and know you're with me.

Kiss my cheek and hold my hand.

I'm confused beyond your concept. I am sad and sick and lost.

All I know is that I need you to be with me at all cost.

Do not lose your patience with me.

Do not scold or curse or cry.

I can't help the way I'm acting.

Can't be different though I try, just remember that I need you,

That the best of me is gone.

Please don't fail to stand beside me.

Love me "til my life is done.”
