Heaven is the message of this feast \u2014 and heaven is the hope of Christians who celebrate it.<\/p>\n<p>St. Elizabeth Ann Seton embraced the doctrine of the Assumption of Mary and saw it as a sign of hope whenever she was faced with death. <strong>When Mother Seton wrote about the Assumption, she personalized it. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Catholics believe that the Virgin Mary, at the end of her life on earth, was taken up \u2014 \u201cassumed\u201d \u2014 body and soul into heaven. Death is the terrible separation of body from soul, and other souls are not reunited with their bodies until the final judgement. Though this dogma was only formally defined by Pope Pius XII in 1950, it was widely believed by the Church from its early centuries.<\/p>\n<p>As St. John Damascene (676-749) put it: <em>\u201cIt was fitting that she, who had kept her virginity intact in childbirth, should keep her own body free from all corruption even after death. \u2026 It was fitting that the spouse, whom the Father had taken to himself, should live in the divine mansions.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>St. Elizabeth Ann also explained how \u201cfitting\u201d the assumption was, but she went one more step. In a spiritual journal entry to Cecilia Seton, her sister-in-law, Elizabeth included these notes about the mystery:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cAssumption \u2014 Blessed Lord grant me that Humility and Love which has crowned her for Eternity. Happy happy Blessed Mother, you are reunited to Him whose absence was your desolation. Pity me; pray for me. It is my sweet consolation to think you are pleading for the wretched poor banished wanderer.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>For Mother Seton, not only was the Blessed Mother in heaven. She was in heaven <em>for us.<\/em> <strong>That\u2019s because the doctrine of the Assumption is not just about the end of Mary\u2019s life. It is also about the end of each of ours.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Assumption is implicit in the Hail Mary prayer, the words that we speak to Mary far more than any others. The prayer ends with the petition, \u201cpray for us, sinners, now and at the hour of our death.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That request gets its special power from where Mary is\u2014in heaven. The Church teaches that Mary\u2019s assumption \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.scborromeo.org\/ccc\/para\/974.htm\">anticipates<\/a> the resurrection of all members of his [mystical] Body,\u201d and so is a \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.scborromeo.org\/ccc\/para\/972.htm\">sign<\/a> of certain hope and comfort\u201d for all of us.<\/p>\n<p>This was the hope St. Elizabeth Ann turned to again and again when faced with death. For her, it was knowledge of the mere <em>presence <\/em>of Mary in heaven that brought comfort.<\/p>\n<p>In one journal entry, on a stormy night spent with her daughter Rebecca, Elizabeth found herself unable to pray, but instead just held a picture of the Blessed Mother and a crucifix as her prayer.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cO my Mary, how tight I held my little picture as a mark of confidence in her prayers, who must be tenderly interested for souls so dearly purchased by her Son and the crucifix held up as a silent prayer which offers all his merits and sufferings as our only hope.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>When she kept journals recording the progress of the illnesses of those dear to her, Mother Seton often mentioned her daughters\u2019 prayers to the Blessed Mother. In these, it is clear that those close to Elizabeth learned from her Marian devotion.<\/p>\n<p>In one journal, she recounted how her daughter Anna Maria on her own sick bed rallied when she heard her mother pray the petition \u201cOur Lady, refuge of sinners,\u201d a title that grew from the Hail Mary\u2019s \u201cpray for us sinners.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOh refuge of sinners pity me. I am a sinner, a miserable one,\u201d Anna prayed, and, \u201cJesus Mary Joseph may my soul depart peacefully.\u201d She learned from her earthly mother to have hope in her heavenly mother.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The hope St. Elizabeth Ann had in Mary is available to every Christian.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Heaven is not a reward for good behavior. It is the culmination of a lifetime of friendship, years spent conversing with Jesus and Mary that will end in an eternity continuing the conversation.<\/p>\n<p>St. Elizabeth Ann\u2019s hope in heaven was so complete because her relationship with the people there\u2014Jesus and Mary\u2014was so deep.<\/p>\n<p>We can have the same conversation through the same means she used\u2014praying the rosary, the Memorare prayer (a favorite of Mother Seton\u2019s) and the Litany of Loreto. But more than reciting the prayers, Elizabeth rested in the sure knowledge of Mary\u2019s <em>presence<\/em> in eternity, body and soul.<\/p>\n<p>Because she was assumed into heaven, Mary is always equally available to each of us in a very real way. St. Elizabeth Ann Seton was certain of it, even when she faced her own death:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf this be the way of death, nothing can be more peaceful and happy,\u201d she wrote during one illness. \u201cIt seems as if our Lord or his blessed Mother stood continually by me, in a corporeal form, to comfort, cheer, and encourage me, in the different weary and tedious hours of pain.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>TOM HOOPES<\/strong>,&nbsp;<em>author most recently of The Rosary of Saint John Paul II, is writer in residence at Benedictine College in Kansas, where he teaches.
