When the hour came, he took his place at table with the apostles. He said to them, I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer, for, I tell you, I shall not eat it (again) until there is fulfillment in the kingdom of God. Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and said, Take this and share it among yourselves; for I tell you (that) from this time on I shall not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes. Then he took the bread, said the blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, saying, This is my body, which will be given for you; do this in memory of me. And likewise the cup after they had eaten, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which will be shed for you. -The 5th Luminous Mystery

Did Mary Die?



Document Title
Did Mary Die?
Question from on 07-04-2007:
Fr. Levis,

The doctrine of the Assumption holds that Mary was assumed, body and soul, into heaven. Does it follow that Mary did not die, since death is the separation of body and soul?

Thanks,

John K.


Answer by Fr. Robert J. Levis on 07-04-2007:
John K, No one knows for sure whether Mary died before her Assumption. Fr. Bob Levis
