Blessed feast of the Queenship of the Blessed Virgin Mary! As we celebrate our Blessed Mother’s coronation and heavenly honor at the side of Jesus, her Son, we also look forward to our celebration of her Nativity on September 8. Birthdays are always special; and Our Lady’s Birthday is extra special, for it presages the coming of the Messiah. On August 30, we begin a novena to the Infant Mary to thank God for all the gifts and privileges with which He endowed her.
Have you considered . . .
as we approach Our Lady’s Birthday, could she be inviting you to give yourself to her as a Dominican Nun dedicated to the Perpetual Rosary? Learn more about our vocation here on our website, or consider coming for a vocation retreat.
If our Blessed Mother is not calling you to our way of life, perhaps she is inviting you to renew your love for her and Jesus in a special way through this novena. May God bless and Our Lady keep you! Please keep those young women whom God is calling to this life in your prayers.
