“The Assumption of the Virgin Mary into Heaven, informally known as the Assumption, according to the beliefs of the Catholic Church, Eastern Orthodoxy, Oriental Orthodoxy, and parts of Anglicanism, was the bodily taking up of the Virgin
Mary into Heaven at the end of her earthly life.” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assumption_of_Mary)
