Redemptoristine Nuns of NY, Inc.

"April showers bring May flowers."
May also brings brings a profusion of feasts: St. Joseph the Worker, Ascension Thursday, Pentecost, Trinity Sunday, the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary.  In fact, the entire month of May is dedicated to Mary.        Remember 'May Crownings?'   
And we have family celebrations of Mother's Day, First Communions, Confirmations, Graduations...
And we can't forget Memorial Day. 

May 13 is a special day for Redemptoristines: the Founding of the Order of the Most Holy Redeemer in 1731.   
 

Jesus once said to Blessed Celeste
in a vision:   
Everything exists for My delight.
Delight in My delight of every created thing:
the sun, the moon, the stars, the heavens, the earth, the flowers
and in all My creatures.

With all the feasts and celebrations, let us gather a wonderful bouquet of peonie praises, hopeful daffodils, courageous iris, dogwood blessings, azalea graces, loving lilacs,  tenacious tulips, faithful phlox, healing hyacinths, comforting lily of the valley as an offering of thanksgiving to our loving God who bestows on us so many gifts today, this month and throughout the year. 

"Life for me is Christ." Phil1:21
