Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary

“Blessed is she…”

Having completed the course of her earthly life, Mary was assumed body and soul into heaven. Her assumption reminds us that heavenly glory is our Christian destiny. As we keep the end of life’s pilgrim journey before us, we join with Mary in praising the greatness of God.

A holy day of obligation, this solemnity will be celebrated with Mass in each of our parish churches on Tuesday, 15 August:

  • 5.00 PM at our Lady of Good Counsel Church, Karrinyup, and
  • 7.00 PM at St Dominic’s Church, Innaloo
