June 1 Monday

Good morning!! How was your weekend? I had a great weekend!!

Sunday was the Feast of Pentecost. It is the birthday of the Church. Did you get to watch Mass? What color was Father Anthony wearing, the altar cloth, and the banners?

Yesterday was also the day we remember Mary’s visit to Elizabeth.

Today is the Feast of Blessed Virgin Mary Mother of the Church.

Let’s begin our day with prayer.

O Most Blessed Virgin Mary,
Mother of Jesus
And Mother of the Church,
Help us to always live
As sons and daughters
Of the Church.
Amen.

Please say the Pledge of Allegiance.
