Solemnity of the Assumption of Mary

Tomorrow, August 15, is one of those days (other than every Sunday) when we as Catholics are 'obliged' to gather together to pray, a "Holy Day".  It's a way to jolt us out of our everyday routines and reflect on some mysterious reality - how God is at work in our world and our lives. This feast is about our long-held belief that at the time of her death, Mary's (the mother of Jesus) body was assumed into heaven, rather than being buried and being subject to the normal course of 'ashes to ashes'.  If you would like more background on this feast, please click and read this post from a prior year.

The Mass Schedule at St. Andrew the Apostle for August 15 is: 6:30AM, 9:00 AM and 7:30PM.
Come celebrate the mighty love and works of God!
