What better day to have a May Crowning of the Image of Mary than on Mother's Day? A day set aside specially for children (young or old) to honor their mother with love and respect.
Four of our parish children are preparing to receive their First Holy Communion next Sunday, but this morning they have the privilege of serving as the Crowning Court for the May Crowning of Mary.
Please join them in the church at 10:00 a.m. for our annual Marian prayer service and May Crowning. The service lasts about 20 minutes before the children process out to the Mary Shrine to crown our parish Mary statue.
Because First Holy Communion is next week, the four children will be wearing their Sunday Best because their special First Holy Communion outfits are not quite ready!
Everyone is reminded to bring flowers for the May Crowning. Thank you!
"We never give more honour to Jesus than when we honour his Mother, and we honour her simply and solely to honour him all the more perfectly. We go to her only as a way leading to the goal we seek - Jesus, her Son."
