ll T 4 l 3. 62 I 3 Z MARY IS CRCWNED The crowning of Gur Lady takes place yearly during the first part of May. The Sodality Prefect is given the honor of placing the crown upon Mary's head, and she is assisted by her officers. This year's Prefect and officers are Joanne Kovacic, Sally Thiede, Karen Gray, Kay Bom- pezzi, and Suzanne Woodhams. Af 'ff' V ,,.. :fi Our Lady's Sodaliry makes an appeal to such Christians as are not content with doing only a little more than they must, but to such as are fully determined to respond generously to the in- spirations of grace and to seek Godls will and fulfill it perfectly in their state of life. These are the words of Our Holy Father, Pope Pius Xllg and these are the thoughts of the soda- lists at St. Paul High School. Our Lady's Sodal- ity has two main objectives: to form spiritual leaders, and to form active Catholics. In order to accomplish these aims the sodalists meet in small groups once each week to study the rules of the Sodality and to discuss means to be em- ployed in bettering themselves. A general meet- ing is also held once a week. In addition to these study meetings, a three-day retreat is made each year to assist in the spiritual development of the sodalists.
