A Day in the Way of Mary - Companion - Sister - Guide -
Around this time (15 August), some Christian communities around the world celebrate the Assumption of Mary—the mystery of her being taken into the fullness of God’s life. It is a feast of hope and joy, reminding us that God’s promise of new creation and resurrection is not only for Mary but for all of us. - Traditionally, the day has been marked with late-summer rituals of herb or harvest blessings, processions and other festvals,
especially in the Northern Hemisphere. - Here in Aotearoa, we can embrace it as a spring celebration—
welcoming Mary as a guide in humility, compassion, presence, gentleness, and deep trust in God.
Her Assumption invites us to live with open hearts, rooted in love and service. -
This retreat day will be a time of quiet reflection, prayer, silence, and sharing…
