“For behold, henceforth all generations will call me blessed.” Luke 1:48 . Assumption of the Body of Holy Virgin Theotokos Saint Mary 
On this day, was the assumption of the body of our pure Lady St. Mary, the Mother of God. While she was keeping vigil, praying in the Holy Sepulcher, and waiting for the happy minute of her liberation from the bonds of the flesh, the Holy Spirit informed her of her forthcoming departure from this vain world. When the time drew near, the disciples and the virgins of the Mt. of Olives came and the Lady was lying on her bed. Our Lord, surrounded by thousands and thousands of angels, came to Her. He consoled her, and announced her with the everlasting joy which was prepared for Her. She was happy, and she stretched out her hands, blessed the Disciples, and the Virgins. Then, she delivered up her pure soul in the hand of her Son and God, Jesus Christ, Who ascended her to the higher habitations. As of the pure body, they shrouded it and carried it to Gethsemane. St. Thomas was absent at the time of St. Mary’s departure, but he came after the burial. On his way back to Jerusalem, St. Thomas saw angels carrying St. Mary’s pure body and ascending with it to heaven, and one of the angels said to him, ‘Hurry and kiss the pure body of St. Mary.’ When he arrived to the disciples, they informed him about St. Mary’s departure. He told them, ‘I will not believe, unless I see her body, as you all know how I did doubt the Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ before.’ They took him to the tomb, to uncover the body but they did not find it, and they were perplexed and amazed. St. Thomas told them how he saw the pure body ascending to heaven, carried by angels. The Holy Spirit then told them, ‘The Lord did not Will to leave Her Holy body on earth.’ May Her intercession be with us. Amen.
