May Procession and Crowning of Our Blessed Mother!
May 3
St. Joan of Arc’s beautiful annual May Procession and Crowning will take place on Sunday, May 3, 2026, between the two morning Masses. Please, plan to be there and to rejoice in it. We gather to honor Mary, the Mother of our Lord Jesus Christ, now our own spiritual Mother, who is also the Patroness of our country, as we crown the Queen of Angels during a devotional service. We invite family and friends to share in this devotion and to announce Mary as the loving Mother of the “New Creation” to the public around us.
We ask all to bring flowers from their gardens this day to offer to, and to honor, Our Lady of Grace.
