Our Lady to Blessed Alan de la Roche - "When you say your Rosary, the angels rejoice, the Blessed Trinity delights in it, my Son finds joy in it too, and I myself am happier than you can possibly guess. After the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, there is nothing in the Church that I love as much as the Rosary.”St. Michael's parishioners pray the Rosary beginning one-half hour before all weekend Masses. Please join us in this fruitful and powerful prayer.

Ways to Celebrate the Month of Mary(May)
Many things can be said about Catholics, but it can never be said that we don’t honor our Mother! In addition to the myriad feast days honoring Our Lady in her many titles and virtues, the entire month of May is especially given to her praise.
May, when the earth blooms in springtime beauty, is an ideal time for our thoughts and sentiments to be directed towards this supremely lovely Queen of Heaven and Earth, who busily labors from her heavenly throne to conquer hearts, minds, and souls for the greater glory of her Son.
In the words of Pope Paul VI, May is “a month which the piety of the faithful has long dedicated to Mary, the Mother of God.”
So, how can you honor the Blessed Virgin Mary in a special way this month, and allow her to conquer your own heart? Here are some ideas.
