Why we celebrate Assumption of Mary?
On the day of the Assumption of Mary, the following events are celebrated: the death of Mary and the ascension of her body to heaven. According to the official teachings of the church, after death, Mary was taken by body and soul to heaven.

The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary is an important holiday for Christians. In the Catholic Church, The Assumption of Mary is one of the 4 Marian dogmas. In the Eastern Orthodox Church, this day is called the Dormition of the Mother of God.
