The Feast of the Assumption of our Blessed Mother is very special to the Marians. We celebrate that Mary, the Mother of our Savior, never experienced the corruption of the grave and that she was assumed into heaven, body, and soul, at the end of her earthly journey.

As a loving tribute to Mary, we place roses at her statue in the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy each year. You also may request to offer a rose and to have a votive candle lit for your personal intentions.
