The Blessed Virgin Mary, Queen of May

Hail Virgin, dearest Mary! 

Our lovely Queen of May! 

O spotless, blessed Lady, 

Our lovely Queen of May. 

Your children, humbly bending, 

Surround your shrine ...

The month of May dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of God. Mary is the one who brings us Jesus, the second person of the Trinity. Precious and powerful is the rosary devotion to our Mother Mary to Catholics and yet, it is neglected by many. In order for we Catholics to give proper devotion to Mary, that devotion must be into practice in our day to day life. She as our model in Christian life. During this month we, our families, church community (BEC) recite the rosary of the the Blessed Virgin Mary as we consecrate our hearts and our homes to the Blessed Virgin Mary. 

May is the month of Mary and that October is the month of the Rosary.

Recitation of the Holy Rosary, resounds with the frequent repetition of praises in honour of the High Queen of Heaven!

Hail Mary, full of grace, 

the Lord is with thee; 

blessed are thou amongst women, 

and blessed is the fruit 

of thy womb, Jesus. 

Holy Mary, Mother of God, 

pray for us sinners now 

and at the hour of our death. 

Amen.

May we be assisted, we beseech Thee, O Lord, 

by the worshipful intercession of 

Thy glorious Mother, the ever-Virgin Mary; 

that we, who have been enriched by her perpetual blessings, 

may be delivered from all dangers, 

and through her loving kindness 

made to be one heart and mind: 

who livest and reignest world without end. 

Amen.

"The Rosary is a powerful weapon to put the demons to flight and to keep oneself from sin…If you desire peace in your hearts, in your homes, and in your country, assemble each evening to recite the Rosary. Let not even one day pass without saying it, no matter how burdened you may be with many cares and labours." ~ Pope Pius XI

"Some people are so foolish that they think they can go through life without the help of the Blessed 

Mother. Love the Madonna and pray the rosary, for her Rosary is the weapon against the evils of the 

world today. All graces given by God pass through the Blessed Mother." ~ St. Padre Pio

"Among all the devotions approved by the Church none has been so favoured by so many miracles as the devotion of the Most Holy Rosary" ~ Pope Pius IX

Whatever we do, let us do “everything through Mary, with Mary, in Mary, and for Mary, in order to do it more perfectly through Jesus, with Jesus, in Jesus, and for Jesus.” (True Devotion, n. 257)
