MAY IS MARY'S MONTH

May Crowning is a Catholic devotion that occurs in the month of May, recognizing Mary as Queen of heaven and earth. As May is considered the season of the beginning of new life, today, we participate in Mary’s crowning to recognize her role in Our Lord lifting us out of the long, cold days of winter and firmly planting our hearts in the warm and promising soil of spring. The act of crowning is attributing a queen symbol to Mary, the mother of our Lord.
