St. Mary Immaculate Parish School May Crowning

St. Mary Immaculate Parish School May Crowning
Friday, May 10, Our Lady was Crowned by her Honor Guard

Throughout the month of May, Catholics honor Mary. The faculty and students of St. Mary Immaculate School show devotion to Our Lady through song, by praying the rosary, and by asking for her intercession.

The St. Mary Immaculate School community also came together to honor Mary through a May Crowning ceremony on Friday, May 10, 2019, during the regular weekly School Mass. This special tradition truly brought us together to love and honor our Mother. May Crowning is a special ceremony where students present an image of Mary with a crown of flowers.

Our May court was comprised of several of our 8th grade leaders, one of whom, Cayla Czerak, gave Our Lady her crown. Many other 8th grade students were also chosen to process into the church and present Mary with flowers. The second grade first communicants served as the honor guard for this beautiful ceremony.

It is our prayer that our love for Mary brings us closer to our loving God. Mary, our mother, pray for us!
