What a gorgeous month of May in our parishes and our community.
This is the month of our Mother Mary, as well as a time for Mother’s Day.
It also contains our fishing opener.
We have also experienced the Sacraments for our students: First Communion (last Sunday), and Confirmation (last Wednesday), which both nourishment of Jesus’ Body and Blood for our young students, and the power of the Holy Spirit for our young men and women.
And, we have our third or fourth tradition of a Baccalaureate Mass on Sunday, May 26th, 2019 at 10:30 at St. Thomas Aquinas to celebrate, pray and encourage our graduate students from each school(s). (Yes, you may wear your cap, gown, and tassel if you would want to).
Finally, we have Memorial Day around our country as it is for, “a day on which those who died in active military service are remembered…,” typically on the last Monday in May.
Again, how important this month is. It offers a time for our spiritual journey with our Mother, our love of nature (as our “spring” usually begins in May!), and our journeys both with spirituality and physical movements, especially many young lives with a new chapter, and our time to reflect on Memorial Day and spend time with our loved ones.
Oh yeah, school is almost done!
God Bless!
