May 1st - The Holy Family Celebration

Well, let's see,  today is the first day of May.  Therefore:

1.  It is May Day.  In honor of this day in 1955, Pope Pius XII instituted the the feast of St. Joseph the Worker.

2.  It is Lei Day in Hawaii.

3.  It is First Friday dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

4.  It is the month dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary!

In honor of this month, why not plant a GARDEN in her honor or wear baby blue for the entire month.  And, don't forget to attend a May Crowning!
