Month of May, Month of Mary!

May is the month of flowers of spring. Many families expect this month to celebrate the reception of any sacrament in the family (First Communion). Also, May is the month that everyone remembers her mother (except in Argentina and Panama ...) and flowers are the most common gift to entertain children who gave them life.

On the other hand, everyone knows that this month is ideal to be outdoors, surrounded by the natural beauty of our countryside. Precisely because of this, because everything around us we should remember our Creator, this month is dedicated to the most delicate of all creatures: the Blessed Virgin Mary, sensitive soul who offered his life to the care and service of Jesus Christ our redeemer.

celebrate by inviting to our parties to Mary, our sweet mother of Heaven.

What is customary this month?

• Offering flowers to the Virgin.


This is the best gift we can ask the Virgin. Giving flowers is one way that people have to tell someone that we love. The Virgin likes to bring flowers and, well, if you can, you can sing your favorite songs as you suggest later in the page ........

To give greater solemnity to the Offering, in many countries, children are often dressed in white, symbolizing purity.

• Reflect on the major mysteries in the life of Mary.

involves making an effort to reflect the mind, imagination, and also with the heart to delve into the virtues of the Virgin lived throughout his life. We can meditate on how Mary behaved, for example, for:

-the Annunciation, the Visitation
her cousin Elizabeth
-
the Birth of Christ-the Presentation of Jesus in the temple
-the Child Jesus was lost and found in the temple
-the Wedding at Cana
-Mary at the foot of the cross.

• Remember the apparitions of the Virgin.

In Fatima, Portugal, in Lourdes, France and in Guadalupe, Mexico (La Guadeloupe) Virgin delivers various messages, all relating to love that she has us, his children.

• Meditate on the four tenets about the Virgin Mary that are



1. Her immaculate conception: The only woman that God allowed him to be conceived and born without original sin was to the Virgin Mary because she was going to be the mother of Christ.

2. Divine motherhood: The Virgin Mary is truly human mother of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

3. Her perpetual virginity Mary conceived by the Holy Spirit, so it always remained a virgin.

4. Her assumption into heaven : The Virgin Mary, at the end of his life, was raised body and soul to Heaven.

• Remember and honor Mary as Mother of all men.

Mary always looks after us and helps us in everything we need. She helps us to overcome temptation and keep the state of grace and friendship with God to get to Heaven. Mary is the Mother of the Church.

• Reflect on the main virtues of the Virgin Mary.

Mary was a woman of deep prayer life, always lived close to God. She was humble, ie simple, was generous, she forgot herself to give to others, had great love, loved and helped everyone equally, it was helpful, attending to Joseph and Jesus with love, live with happiness, was patient with his family, knowing accept the will of God in their lives.
• Live real and true devotion to Mary.

is that we strive to live as his children. This means



a. Look at Mary as a mother: Tell what happens to us all: the good and bad. Come to know her at all times.

b. Show our affection: Doing what she expects of us and remember it throughout the day.

c. Rely on it: All Jesus gives thanks, pass through the hands Mary, and it is she who intercedes with her Son for our difficulties.

d. Imitate her virtues: This is the best way to show our love.

The Church offers us beautiful prayers as the Angelus (who used to pray at noon), the Regina Caeli, the Consecration to Mary and the Rosary. Several sentences Marianas
