​The Year of St. Joseph


​St. Joseph - Spouse of Our Lady
"To Jesus through Mary and Joseph"

Picture
One of the familiar titles of St. Joseph is the Spouse of Mary and foster father of Jesus, the head of the Holy Family.  During the month of May, the Church encourages us to honor Our Lady in special ways.  Our Paris held a May Procession on Mother's Day with a procession to outdoor statue of Mary where she was crowned by Mrs. Bea Pinkerton.  Parishioners and families participated with Father Newton in praising Mary.  A beautiful ceremony.


​Family Tributes to the Blessed Mother

All families are encouraged to make a family shrine or May altar n their home or garden.  Your family can have your won family crowning and pray for all your family intentions.  Take a picture and send it to Sister Joelle to be posted on Facebook.  This will be counted as one of your family's events for the year.
