The New Month of Mary, or Reflections for Each Day of the Month: On the Different Titles Applied to the Holy Mother of God in the Litany of Loretto; ... for the Month of May (Classic Reprint)
(Excerpt from The New Month of Mary, or Reflections for Ea...)
Excerpt from The New Month of Mary, or Reflections for Each Day of the Month: On the Different Titles Applied to the Holy Mother of God in the Litany of Loretto; Principally Designed for the Month of May The devotion of the faithful towards the Mother of God has inspired them to consecrate the month of May in a special manner to her honor. This pious practice originated in Italy; and the month of May was selected in preference to any other, from a wish to change a season of dissipation and amuse ment into one of instruction and devotion. From Italy it passed into France, and other countries of Europe, where it has been found productive of the most beneficial results. Within the last few years, it has been intro duced into the United States, and has been practised by numbers of the faithful servants of Mary, who eagerly profit by this opportun ity of testifying their love and gratitude to the Holy Mother of God, and of cultivating the virtues which would assimilate them to this perfect model of Christians.

Peter Richard Kenrick
Edit ProfileEducation
Kenrick attended St. Patrick's College, Maynooth, and was raised to the priesthood on March 6, 1832.
Career
In 1832 Kenrick joined his elder brother, Francis Patrick Kenrick, then bishop of Philadelphia, and was appointed pastor of the Cathedral, president of the Seminary, and vicar general of the diocese. In addition to his official duties, he assumed the editorship of the diocesan organ, the Catholic Herald, and wrote three books of permanent value: The New Month of Mary (1840), The Validity of Anglican Ordinations (1841), and The Holy House of Loretto (1842).
In Philadelphia he met Bishop Rosati of St. Louis, who was so deeply impressed with the sterling qualities of the young priest that he asked for his appointment as coadjutor in St. Louis. After his consecration, November 30, 1841, Kenrick, with the title of Bishop of Drasa, started for St. Louis; whilst Bishop Rosati journeyed to Rome and thence, as legate, to Haiti. St. Louis at this time was a small, straggling frontier town, with about 20, 000 inhabitants--French, English, Irish, and German--and only one Catholic church. After the death of Bishop Rosati at Rome, September 25, 1843, his coadjutor took the title of bishop of St. Louis; and on January 30, 1847, when St. Louis was raised to the dignity of an archdiocese, he became archbishop. The rapid growth of the Catholic population required many new buildings in city and country. To open new resources, the Archbishop entered upon a banking venture that proved highly beneficial to the parishes and institutions of St. Louis. When he closed his bank, he had neither debts nor superfluous funds; all the money had gone into the upbuilding of the Church. In the course of his administration a large number of separate dioceses were erected, so that the diocese of St. Louis at last was reduced to the eastern half of Missouri, but the Catholic population in the restricted territory had outstripped by far the numbers Bishop Kenrick found in the vast territory of his early days. As archbishop he held one synod, and one provincial council.
He was a leading figure in the various Councils of Baltimore. In the Ecumenical Council of the Vatican he took a prominent part as an opponent of the dogmatization of infallibility, holding, that as the pope's decisions had been always accepted by the Church as final, his infallibility was practically assured, and that there was no need of an official declaration. When, however, the Council by a large majority decreed the dogma that the pope, when speaking ex cathedra in matters of faith and morals, was infallible, he accepted the decree as final. The crowning glory of Kenrick's life was the celebration in 1891 of the fiftieth anniversary of his consecration as a bishop. After that event his health rapidly declined and his place was taken by Archbishop Kain, while he received the title of archbishop of Marcianopolis.
