Monday, June 1 is the Feast of the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary (transferred from May 31). This major Holy Day celebrates Mary's visit to her kinswoman Elizabeth after hearing from the Angel Gabriel that Elizabeth, as well as Mary, will give birth to a child. There Elizabeth's child - John the Baptist - leaps in the womb in witness to Our Lord, and Mary sings the Magnificat, her great song of praise. St. Paul's will celebrate The Visitation on Monday at 7:00 pm with a Eucharist in the Lady Chapel.
