Day 4: The Assumption
Day 4 attends to Mary's bodily Assumption into heaven.
Glorified body
At the end of her earthly life, Mary was assumed body and soul into heavenly glory. The Catholic doctrine, defined by Pope Pius XII in 1950, gives the petitioner hope for the resurrection of the body.
Prayer
Pray three Hail Marys. Honor the Assumption and ask for the hope of glory.
Mary, Assumed into heaven, draw me after you to the heavenly home. Amen.
Conclude with one Our Father and one Glory Be.
