Welcome to our assembly to celebrate Mary’s month, the month of May. When the angel Gabriel came to Mary and asked her to be the mother of Jesus she said that she was happy to do what God wanted. She and Joseph cared for Jesus while he was growing up and helped him become the person that God wanted him to be. We have a May altar here at assembly  and some of you might have a May altar in your classroom or at home. 

Hail Mary Prayer

Ms Tobin’s class came up to read prayers to Mary.

Ms Doran’s class to brought up the flowers they made for the May altar and to placde them in the basket at the front of the altar. Flowers have no words but they can mean things like thank you, well done and get well soon. We give our flowers to Mary to say we love you and we honour you.

End Prayer
Loving God,
We thank you for the example of Mary, whom you chose from among all women to be the mother of your son. May she watch over us in our lives as she watched over and cared for Jesus. Help us to always have the courage to say yes to what you ask of us just as she did. We make this prayer through Christ our Lord. Amen
