My Dear Parishioners and Friends, this week we will begin the third week of May. In the month of May we honor and pray especially to the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of Jesus. Christians, from the beginning, had a special devotion toward the Mother of our Savior. I invite you on each Wednesday of May at 7:00 p.m. for May Devotions.
We give praise and honor to God with the prayers and intercessions of the Blessed Virgin Mary. We likewise will sing / recite the Litany to the Blessed Virgin Mary in the presence of the Most Blessed Sacrament. In addition to that, we are going to sing hymns dedicated to our spiritual Mother and reflect on her life. Let us allow Mary, our spiritual mother to lead us to her Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord.
