The month of May is devoted to Our Lady, the Blessed Virgin Mary. This Sunday, May 6th after the 10:30 Mass, there will be a Marian procession. At the end of the procession, the May crowning will take place in the church where a month-long shrine will be in place for private devotions and prayers. A member of the First Communion Class of 2012 will crown Mary. We encourage all parishioners to make use of the shrine. Vases will be available for fresh flowers to be given in Mary's honor.
The role of the cantor at Liturgy includes chanting the Proper antiphons of the Day and leading the faithful in chanting the Psalm Responsory and the Alleluia Verse before the Gospel.
The cantor also assists in helping the faithful to sing the Ordinary Parts such as the Kyrie, Gloria, Sanctus, and Agnus Dei.
