Today the Church celebrates both the death and the triumphant Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary into Heaven.
Mary Immaculate, who from the moment of her conception was privileged from Our heavenly Father to be free from all stain of Original Sin and escape also the corruption of the tomb. It is her immediate entry, body and soul, into the glory of heaven, that the Church celebrates this day, with joy, giving praise to her in whom the redemption was fully effective without restriction, since, before all the other Saints, Our Lady, immediately sfter her death, was privilaged to enjoy the resurrection of the body, following the example of the Risen Christ Himself.
"Signum magnum apparuit in coelo", the new Mass of the feast of the Assumption, introduced at the definition of the dogma by Pius XII on November 1, 1950, sees in the woman portrayed in the Book of the Apocalypse, " clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet and on her head a crown of twelve stars" the glorified Mother of God in the full radiance of her eternal glory.
Almighty and everlasting God, You have raised to the glory of heaven in body as well as in soul, the Immaculate Virgin Mary, Mother of Thy Divine Son: grant we pray that with our minds always fixed on things above, we may be made worthy of a share in that same glory, Through the same Christ Our Lord.
We commit ourselves to the Divine Will of our Heavenly Father and dedicate our lives in service to our Lord and Savior, our most Holy Mother; with St. Michael our Warrior and Standard; with St.Joseph our Model and Guide; we promise to uphold and defend the True Dogmas, Doctrines and Traditions of the Roman Catholic Church.

Since we are struggling to survive, we are not yet able to afford Insurance coverage for the buildings, property or visitors. We are not able to cover personal accidents on the property.
Our Needs are many:
We are desperately in need of donations for a new Well, to replace a 30yr. old well gone bad; for a new 4 wheel drive truck, to replace a 24 yr. old truck - the only vehicle still in use on the property today; to repair hurricane damage to the Hermitage house itself and to finish construction of the rooms inside.
We need to repair the old tractor for the upkeep of the property.
We also seek donations to build a proper Chapel to replace the temporary garage Chapel in use today.
