Despite the limitations on public gatherings imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic, parishes have still found ways to honor the Blessed Virgin Mary during May, the Month of Mary.
May crownings, including this one outside St. Mark Church in Huntersville (with St. Mark second-grader Hannah Hoover representing the school along with Johnathan Kelly-Bleiler), and Fatima processions, like this one outside St. Thomas Aquinas Church on May 13, were among the celebrations held. May isn’t over yet – plan your own do-it-yourself Marian devotion at home, such as a May crowning or planting a Marian garden.
