THE “MAY CROWNING” EACH OF US CAN OFFER This Sunday, there will be two special occasions at the 10:30 AM Mass. First, it will be a critical moment in the lives of some of the children of our parish, who will be making their First Holy Communion. This is not only a lifechanging moment of grace for the boys and girls, but a mo- ment of grace for our whole parish, as more of our church “family” is nourished by the “Bread of Angels” and the chalice of salvation. The other big moment will happen at the end of the First Communion Mass, when our first com- municants will process and then crown a statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary. This venerable cus- tom of celebrating a “May crowning” of a statue of the Blessed Mother on the first Sunday of May (the month dedicated to Our Lady) is a beautiful manifestation of the love, trust, and devo- tion we hold in our hearts for Mary. In light of that, I wanted to offer a few suggestions to everyone about various ways we might, as individuals or families, “crown” Mary in our own lives, especially during this month of May. The first and most obvious would be to crown a statue of Our Lady in your own home. If you don’t have an actual crown, one can easily be made by weaving small flowers or even a little greenery together in the shape of a crown. Or, if you do not have a statue but do have some sort of image hanging on a wall or displayed on a shelf, one could place a rose or some other flower on the top of the image, or a small flower arrangement in front of it. It might not look exactly like a crown, per se, but in the larger sense, it is providing extra “ornamentation” to the image in order to honor our dear Mother. There is an even better way each of us can “crown” our Blessed Mother, and that is to do so spir- itually. For we truly adorn her, honor her, “crown” her by entrusting ourselves to her as our mother and our queen, and placing ourselves under her as her servants & handmaids. By aiming to serve her well, we honor her with our deeds and proclaim by our actions that we know her to be the Queen of heaven and earth, to whom even the armies of angels vow obedience. We crown her by entrusting our needs and intentions to her, asking her to bring them before her heavenly Son, the King of kings and Lord of lords. In doing so, we profess our understanding of the unique and irreplaceable role she continues to play in the work of salvation. As Mother of the Afflicted, Help of Christians, and so many similar titles, we do her honor by entrusting our needs to her as her loving children. Finally, as the old saying goes, “imitation is the highest form of flattery.” In the context of faith, I would slightly correct that saying: imitation is the highest form of honor. We show Mary incredi- ble honor when we aim to imitate in our lives all of the wonderful virtues that so beautifully characterized her own. Every time we imitate one of her virtues (and especially if we do so inten- tionally desiring to honor her), it is like a beautiful flower being placed in the crown atop her head. So as we begin this very special month in honor of Our Lady, may each of our lives be a living “May crowning” in honor of MaryNour life, our sweetness, and our hope. God Bless, Fr.
