:: May Crowning - Saturday May 31st @ 5PM
May Crowning is an annual tradition in the Roman Catholic Church that occurs in the month of May in which the faithful, both religious and laity, crown images of the Blessed Virgin, the Mother of Christ. The crowning of statues of Mary during May was once very common among Catholics in North America and is making quite a come back. It is still common in other countries, especially in Europe but not always during May.
