Queenship of Mary

This feast day celebrates the queenship our Blessed Mother. As the mother of Jesus Christ, the Lord of all creation, Mary shares in his royal heritage.

Mary’s queenship foreshadows the glory in heaven which awaits all of us who recognize her son as ruler of the universe.

Jesus is King throughout all eternity by nature and by right of conquest: through Him, with Him, and subordinate to Him, Mary is Queen by grace, by divine relationship, by right of conquest, and by singular choice [of the Father]. And her kingdom is as vast as that of her Son and God, since nothing is excluded from her dominion.

Pope Pius XII

Say a Rosary With Your Family or Youth Group

The rosary is one of the most misunderstood Catholic devotions. While some non-Catholics see it as worshiping Mary, it is in fact focused on Christ. The mysteries of the rosary are based on important events in the life of Christ. When we meditate on these mysteries we consider these events and how they relate to our own lives and our relationship with Jesus Christ.

Make a Rosary Slide Bracelet or Key-Chain

A rosary slide bracelet or keychain is a nice craft to remind children and teens to pray. I like making the key-chain which can actually be used for keys for teenagers. Or if they don't need a key chain they can hang it on their backpack or just keep it in their pocket to remind them to pray.
