Two Entrance Antiphons are given for today's feast which is so unusual that I am copying both here:
"A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothes with the sun, and the moon beneath her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars." or
"Let us all rejoice in the Lord, as we celebrate the feast day in honor of the Virgin Mary, at whose Assumption the Angels rejoice and praise the Son of God."
In the Collect we ask that we may always be attentive to the things that are above, and that we may merit to share in Mary's glory.
This is the last day of my retreat so I am happy to have it end on Our Lady's Feast. I will come out tomorrow morning and be home to share some of my retreat beginning August 17 to post my blog.
This got published the day I wrote it and cannot be changed to August 15 - sorry about that.
