You can watch Fr. Salvo’s homily from this morning’s Mass at Saint Patrick’s Cathedral here. Today we celebrate the Assumption of our Blessed Mother into Heaven.
Usually, we celebrate the day a saint died, which is also their birthday into Heaven. However, Mary did not die like the rest of us. She brought the Savior into the world, so she was brought body and soul to reunite with her Son. In this year of hope, we also remember how important our Blessed Mother is for us to have hope.
Deacon Maldonado served at the Church of the Immaculate Conception, Church of the Most Holy Redeemer, and Church of the Holy Cross, Manhattan.
