FROM THE PASTOR’S DESK
THE ASSUMPTION OF MARY.
Mary’s Assumption is the Roman Catholic doc-
trine that Mary the mother of Jesus, “Having
completed the course of her earthly life, was
assumed body and soul into heavenly glory” by
God. The Assumption is just one of the only
two papal declarations—the other being
Mary’s Immaculate Conception (1854) - that
have been officially defined “ex cathedra” or
“from the chair of Peter,” that is, by a pope
rather than by an ecumenical Council of all
the bishops.
Although Mary’s Assumption into heaven is
not described in the Bible, various sermons
and devotions as early as the 6th century in-
dicate that many of the faithful believed
that it was true. Medieval theologians like St.
Thomas Aquinas and St. Bonaventure put
forth arguments to validate it. But it had
never been formally defined as a dogma by
the Church’s teaching authority. So after
consulting with the Church’s bishops through-
out the world, Pope Pius XII solemnly de-
clared the Assumption to be an infallible dog-
ma of the Church on November 1, 1950, and
its celebration was assigned to August 15. By
declaring Mary’s Assumption into heaven, the
Church afforms that Mary has already re-
ceived the new life with God that Jesus
promised. “By her complete adherence to the
Father’s will, to his Son’s redemptive work,
and to every prompting of the Holy Spirit,
the Virgin Mary is the Church’s model of
faith & charity” (CCC, #966-67).
