“Pope Francis sent a letter [April 25] encouraging Catholics to pray the rosary throughout May. He also shared two new prayers to implore the help of the Virgin Mary during the coronavirus pandemic.

‘Contemplating the face of Christ with the heart of Mary our Mother will make us even more united as a spiritual family and will help us overcome this time of trial,’ Pope Francis said. He urged families and individuals to ‘rediscover the beauty of praying the rosary at home in the month of May,’ which is traditionally a time of increased devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary.” Source: Catholic News Agency.

Please pray that our parish will be able to uphold the annual tradition of a “May Crowning” later this month. Thank you!
