The church cannot be herself without woman and her role...The feminine genius is needed wherever we make important decisions.”
– Pope Francis

Once again, we had a full house at our last General Meeting for the 2022-2023 year.  But first, as we normally do in May, guild captains processed into the church to place flowers before Mary on the May altar.  After Morning Mass, we prayed the "Living Rosary" from each guild's position around the church, and then processed outdoors to crown the statue of Mary for the month of May.
