The month of May is the “month which the piety of the faithful has especially dedicated to Our Blessed Lady,” and it is the occasion for a “moving tribute of faith and love which Catholics in every part of the world [pay] to the Queen of Heaven. During this month Christians, both in church and in the privacy of the home, offer up to Mary from their hearts an especially fervent and loving homage of prayer and veneration. In this month, too, the benefits of God’s mercy come down to us from her throne in greater abundance” (Paul VI: Encyclical on the Month of May, no. 1).
Pack the Chapel: Friday, May 11, 2012
This will be the second annual Pack the Chapel event. Students and faculty are encouraged to attend this last Friday Chapel Mass of the year for the seniors. The Mass will be followed by coffee and donuts outside the Chapel.
