Hail, Mary, full of grace,

the Lord is with thee.

Blessed art thou amongst women

and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God,

pray for us sinners,

now and at the hour of our death. 

Amen.

Catholic Core Principles and Values: 

The Primacy of God -Love of God

All people are called to love of God and love of neighbour. 

“You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your mind”

God chose Mary to be the mother of his son, Jesus. Mary was always ready and willing to do whatever God wanted. Because she was so special she was taken up body and soul to be with Jesus in heaven – this is what 'Assumption' means.
