• Faithful renew consecration to the Blessed Mother

      DELRAY BEACH | The 2025 International Marian Festival May 4 at Emmanuel Catholic Church in Delray Beach honored the Mother of God with a colorful display of cultural diversity.

      Faithful from parishes across the diocese and beyond carried pictures and statues of Mary with her many titles representing their country of origin. Each decade of the rosary was prayed in different languages. Children were dressed as angels and Junior Legion of Mary members from St. Rita’s Catholic Church in Wellington wore their Mother Mary T-shirts. Vietnamese Catholics dressed in their cultural garb performed a liturgical dance honoring the Blessed Mother.
