Feast of the Assumption

In most of the U.S., this wonderful Feast day was celebrated yesterday. However, here in the Diocese of Lincoln, we get to celebrate it today. I'm looking forward to the noon Mass at St. Mary's downtown today. It's always packed and it seems to me that everybody sings at the tops of their lungs. So cool... My husband's work schedule keeps him from the regular Mass times, but he'll go down to St. Thomas Aquinas on campus tonight for the 10:30 p.m. Mass.

Crossroads sent me this great link on St. John Damascene's writing on the Feast of the Assumption. Well worth the read, even if you celebrated yesterday.
