Assumpta est Maria in caelum

In a week's time we keep the high point of the liturgical summer green season - the Feast of the Assumption of Our Lady which falls on 15 August throughout the Western Church.

The Assumption is a Holy Day of Obligation and as such all Catholics are bound to hear Mass. Most of the Marylebone Ordinariate Group will keep the feast at the Solemn Mass at 7pm at St. James's Spanish Place where the music promises to be a glorious blend of renaissance Catholic patrimony from Palestrina, Victoria, and Cabezon.
