MARY'S MONTH

For May, often called Mary's month in popular devotion, we offer you two articles for contemplation. The first one, below, is divided into five sections: liturgy, Mary's month, ways to celebrate, a practical suggestion for a Marian coronation, and a sample celebration for use in parishes. The second article shares with you the official church teaching on coronation of images. You will find this in our resource section, Coronation of Mary.
