Queenship of Mary, August 22, 2022 & the Feast of the
Assumption Aug. 15th, 2022
Today’s post is a departure from our normal focus on the three ways of life Mary asks of us on our path to becoming Saints: Prayer, Penitential Acts and reception of the Sacraments, especially the Holy Eucharist! These approaching Marian Feast days are an incredibly rich opportunity to perform all these actions in a most special way, with millions of the faithful across the world lifting their hearts, their souls to Mary to Jesus!
