Sunday was the feast day of the Assumption.
On this day we celebrate our belief that Mary, the Mother of God, was assumed -body and soul- into Heaven following her death.
It was long believed that this was what had happened to Our Lady, but it was on 1st November 1950 that Pope PiusXII defined the doctine of the Ssumption of Our Lady into Heaven.
We celebrated the feast after Mass with a meal over in Edinburgh with a number of friends.
We chatted and ate in the garden in the warm sunshine, while the children bounced on a trampoline. We finished up with a Rosary also said in the Garden.
