The Feast of the Assumption is one of the most important feast days of the year and a Holy Day of Obligation on the official Roman Catholic Church calendar. By tradition, the holy day is observed every August 15. This year, the Feast of the Assumption occurs on Wednesday, August 15, 2012. According to Roman Catholic theology, Mary was "assumed body and soul into heavenly glory" several years after her son, Jesus, ascended into heaven.
Bishop Ricken Issues Formal Decree. Marian Apparitions at the Shrine of Our Lady of Good Help are first and only in the U.S. to be approved by the Church!

You can walk the grounds, sit in the church, or spend time in the chapel. However you choose to spend your time there it will be a blessing.
Let us always be mindful of the love our Mother Mary had for her son Jesus and the love she has for each of us.
Blessings for a wonderful week.
