    because it is the week of Our Lord's crucifixion. Easter is a time of rejoicing for His Resurrection from the dead.
    May day is the first day of the month of our Blessed mother Mary. It is a month that is kept with great devotion in honour of the Blessed Virgin. During that month some people honour the Blessed Virgin by putting a crown of flowers at her feet. On that account we firmly believe that she will grant us any requests we ask of her.
    St Peter and Paul's day is on 29th June. It is a holiday of Obligation because on that day St Peter and Paul died.
