Group - this past Sunday, May 3rd, we gathered as a parish family to place a crown of flowers upon the image of Our Lady in a beautiful tradition that the Church has celebrated for centuries — the May Crowning.
In this simple and tender act, we honored Mary as Queen of Heaven and Earth, acknowledging her unique role in God's plan of salvation. As the month of May belongs in a special way to Our Blessed Mother, we offered her our love, our prayers, and our intentions — trusting that she carries them straight to the heart of her Son.
Mary's entire life was one of faithful "yes" to God. From the Annunciation to the foot of the Cross, she never wavered. In crowning her, we do not merely celebrate a tradition — we renew our own commitment to follow her example: to love Jesus completely, to serve humbly, and to trust God in all things.
We are so grateful to all who participated and helped make this moment of prayer and beauty possible. May Our Lady intercede for our parish, our families, and our community throughout this Easter season and always.
"Hail, holy Queen, Mother of Mercy, our life, our sweetness, and our hope."
