May Crowning
The month of May is dedicated to our Blessed Mother. As such, the tradition of May Crowning is a devotion that is observed during this month. Two of our Residents, Welly and Melody, had the honor of crowning Mary in our Chapel.
St. Jeanne Jugan would tell us that, “The Hail Mary will take us to Heaven”. These words illustrated her deep devotion to Mary. The rosary was St. Jeanne Jugan’s great method of prayer. Jeanne trusted that Mary knew all her needs and as a true Mother, Mary sees to it that all is provided for the happiness of her dear, elderly children.
As we honor Our Blessed Mother in a very special way throughout this month, we are confiding your intentions, as well as all the needs of our Home to Mary. In good times and in more difficult times, we are comforted to know that she is with us every moment. Through her motherly intercession, she carries all our intentions to her Son, Jesus.
