O loving God,
you raised the Blessed Virgin Mary, body and soul,
into the glory of heaven,
a sign of hope and comfort for your pilgrim people.
Through her Assumption,
you show us the destiny that awaits all who faithfully follow Christ:
a life of eternal joy in your loving presence.
Mary, our Mother and Queen,
intercede for us today.
Help us to live with hearts turned toward heaven,
seeking always to do God’s will with humility and trust.
Teach us to say “yes” to God, as you did,
to bring Christ into the world through our words and actions,
and to love with a generous and pure heart.
May we one day share in your joy,
gathered together in the fullness of God’s kingdom.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
