Mother's Day at Saint Leo's Church
Crowning of Blessed Mother and street procession
Saint Leo's traditional Mother's Day Mass, crowning of the Blessed Mother statue and outdoor procession through the neighborhood has been in existence for decades. After the statue of Mother Mary is crowned during Mass, it is processed through the streets of Little Italy, followed by children making their First Eucharist, clergy and parishioners.
