We will be chanting the proper Marian Antiphon for the season of Lent at the end of all masses through Palm Sunday. Please watch this demonstration video and review the Latin text and Translation.
Ave, Regina caelorum, Ave, Domina Angelorum:
Salve, radix, salve, porta Ex qua mundo lux est orta:
Gaude, Virgo gloriosa, Super omnes speciosa, Vale, o valde decora, Et pro nobis Christum exora.
Hail, O Queen of Heaven. Hail, O Lady of Angels:
Hail! thou root, hail! thou gate from whom unto the world a light has arisen:
Rejoice, O glorious Virgin, Lovely beyond all others, Farewell, most beautiful maiden, And pray for us to Christ.
Honoring the Great Women of our Parish
03-22-2025 | Fr. Robert AliunziDear friends,
“If you educate a man, you educate an individual. But if you educate a woman, you educate a nation.” (African Proverb)
This month of March is dedicated to women all over the world in recognition of their invaluable contribution to the upholding and liberation of society. The official celebration of this day began on March 8th with the celebration of International Women’s Day. That day got me still in Uganda, and I was struck by how, with great excitement and fanfare, the day was celebrated. Men took turns cooking food, washing dishes, and generally spoiling their wives and mothers to commemorate that day. Not to be outdone, politicians and religious leaders made great but generally hollow speeches about women's emancipation at rallies.
