Saint John the Baptist, Front Royal VA, May 17th - May Crowning and Consecration
I received this email today from a colleague: On Sunday, May 17th, and immediately after the 12:30 TLM, St. John the Baptist Church in Front Royal will be having a Procession down Main Street, followed by a May Crowning at the Gazebo. The St. John's Schola will be leading us in singing Marian hymns, then we will be praying the Rosary as we walk. A lovely five-foot tall vintage statue of Our Lady of Fatima will be carried through town and will have a Knights of Columbus honor guard. Fr. Carr will then consecrate the town and county to the Immaculate Heart. At the end of the procession, we invite all to a finger-food and coffee social... Please join us in giving public honor to Our Blessed Mother. Rain or Shine. (Expected start time of procession is 1:45) Click for Calendar (opens New Window)
