Processions and Blue Organza Dresses

By Pat Haggerty

When I was a young girl the month of May was a big deal!  I attended the local “parochial” school, and we were all about May shrines and May processions.  We even sang a song that began:  “C’est le mois de Marie; c’est le mois le plus beau” (It is the month of Mary; it is the most beautiful month).  Indeed, it was!

 
Signs of God N. 2

Signs of God N. 2

Word of the Postulator

Here is the second number of “Signs of God”; the principal subject is again the miracle. Let us continue to ask God for the gift of a miracle obtained through the intercession of Father d’Alzon. It is the confirmation which the Church requests in order to publicly recognize the holiness of our Founder. From January 9 to February 7, I followed a course (obligatory) for Postulators, on the theology and history of beatifications and canonizations. It is a course organized by the Congregation for the Causes of Saints. I learned a lot of new things, among which, that it is the local Church or the religious family in which he lived, acted and witnessed to his faith, that does the true recognition of the holiness of the Servant of God. That is why we, Assumptionists (men and women religious and laity), are the first who should believe in the holiness of Father d’Alzon and, consequent to this certitude, have to make him known as a model of holiness for us today. Let us imitate his virtues, let us adopt him as spiritual father, let us ask his intercession!

Fr. Julio Navarro Román, A.A.
