Sorry there have not been posts, but I am just back from some R&R.
Those of you familiar with "Entering Canaan" know that Our Lady of Czestochowa is the patroness of the ministry. If you don't know, and would like to hear why, you can read about it here.
So, of course, this coming event at the Shrine to Our Lady in Doylestown is very special to our heart here at EC and we wanted to let you know about it. It is an opportunity for us to be a living crown for her who has done so much for us!
The 300 Anniversary Of The Coronation Of The Miraculous Image Of Our Lady Of Czestochowa
2016 – September 8 – 2017 is the Jubilee year of the 300th anniversary of the Coronation of the Miraculous Image of Our Lady of Czestochowa with Papal crowns. This celebration took place in 1717 in Czestochowa, Poland. The crowns were sent by Pope Clemens XI. It was for the first time in the history that such an event took place outside of Rome. Today we wish to honor Mary, not with golden crowns, but with our life in accord with the Gospel. St. Irenaeus said that „The glory of God is man fully alive”. In order for this to happen, we need a continuous repentance. That is why we would like to offer our spiritual gifts to the Blessed Mother – because they show whether Mary truly reigns in our life.
