Since the 13th century, Catholics have set aside the month of May as a time to honor the Blessed Virgin Mary through special devotions dedicated to the Queen of Heaven. Spend time this month in gratitude for all the Blessed Mother has done for mankind in salvation history. Consider some of the ways of honoring Mary in May, for example,

1. Making a Consecration to Mary
2. Keeping her company in daily prayer and the rosary
3. Meditating on scripture passages that feature Mary and the events of her life:

• The Annunciation: Luke 1:26-38
• The Visitation: Luke 1:39-56
• The Nativity of Our Lord: Luke 2:1-20
• The Presentation: Luke 2:22-38
• The Losing and Finding Jesus in the Temple: Luke 2:41-52
• The Wedding at Cana: John 2: 1-12
• The Crucifixion: John 19:26-27
• The Early Church: Acts 1:14

4. Displaying a Marian image in a prominent place in your home as a reminder to all to honor her 
5. Creating a Mary garden by surrounding her image with plants named for her
