Bishop to renew the consecration of the Diocese to the care of our Blessed Mother

Bishop Tobin will join the Bishops of the United States and Canada in renewing the consecration of the Diocese of Providence to the care of our Blessed Mother on Friday, May 1, 2020.

Through a collective dedication or entrustment of a nation to Mary, an act of consecration is meant to be a reminder to the faithful of the Blessed Mother’s witness to the Gospel and to ask for her effective intercession before her Son on behalf of those in need.

Although the ceremony is not open to the public, Bishop Tobin said, “I will have in my mind and heart all the intentions, needs and prayers of the members of the Church in the Diocese of Providence.”
