May is traditionally considered Mary’s month. We symbolically crown the statues of Mary at both churches on two weekends in early May. The first weekend, we crown the statue in the vestibule of St. Mary of the Pines following the 9:00 AM Mass. The second weekend we crown the statue in the garden near the Adoration Chapel following the 12:00noon Mass in Barnegat. There is a short procession with song and prayer. Children are invited to participate, especially children who have received their First Communion that year. Parents who want their children to participate may leave their contact information at the rectory office or religious ed. office, and it will be forwarded to Maryanne.
