May Crowning

Children placing flowers in front of Mary's statue
The May Crowning was held in our parish yesterday, both in the morning for the school children, and in the afternoon and evening for our Faith Formation program. A statue of the Blessed Mother was crowned at each celebration as children placed flowers in front of the Marian statue. While this was being done, I played several times the Ave Maria by Schubert on my flute, as the long line of children prayerfully processed towards the altar. Afterwards we recited the Rosary, and concluded with the Hail Holy Queen.
