With hymns of praise to honor Our Lady, the brothers and sisters, as well as the school children, followed by members of the Third Order and the faithful processed to the shrines of Our Lady on the monastary grounds to crown the statues with May flowers. The procession was led by three altar boys carrying the crucifix and candles. Followed by the flower girls, casting rose petals before the statue of Our Lady of Fatima.At each shrine, a decade of the rosary was said.
The girls from the Senior class, accompanied by an honor guard, carried flowered wreaths with which they crowned the the pilgrim statue of Our Lady of Fatima and the statues of Our Lady at the four shrines.
There is something truly beautiful about children paying tribute to our Lady in this way. The pictures say it all:
