Our Lady of Sorrows Church in Wahiawa on May 2 celebrated the crowning of the Blessed Virgin Mary statue by Chloe Pacheco assisted by Precious Algoso. Over the years, this traditional devotion has evolved in many various ways in different cultures and countries. The crowning of the Blessed Virgin with roses recalls the flowers that miraculously appeared at the apparition of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico. (Photo courtesy of Pacita Baron)
