August 15, 2021 – Hope in the Resurrection

In her Assumption, Mary shows forth in herself the same Resurrection all followers of Christ will share.

The Resurrection proves that Jesus can conquer sin and death, including and especially the sin and death in our lives.

We cannot pay back the debt we owe to a God who loves us so much that he endured torture and crucifixion.

Jesus fulfills all priesthood by becoming both the priest and the victim.
