Congratulations, Tyler Josti!
On Sunday, April 25th, at the 10:15 am Mass, Tyler Josti will receive the Parvuli Dei Emblem. The purpose of the Parvuli Dei (Children of God) emblem is to help young boys explore a wide range of activities in order to discover the presence of God in their daily lives as members of their families and parishes, and also to develop a good, positive self-image through the contributions they can make to the group or community. A representative of the Worcester Diocese will present Tyler with the Parvuli Dei pin. Congratulations to Tyler for meeting the requirements to receive this special award. We are proud you belong to our Parish Family!

May: the Month of Mary, Patroness of Our Parish
- History: From the National Catholic Register: The idea of a month dedicated specifically to Mary can be traced back to baroque times. Although it wasn’t always held during May, Mary Month included thirty daily spiritual exercises honoring Mary. It was in this era that Mary’s Month and May were combined, making May the Month of Mary with special devotions organized on each day throughout the month. This custom became especially widespread during the nineteenth century and remains in practice until today.
- May Crowning, May 2nd, 10:15 Mass: We will crown Mary as we have been doing, probably since our church opened. After Mass we will have a procession to the Marian Shrine and we will pray the Rosary together.
