May 31 is the Feast day of The Visitation

The feast commemorates the visit of the Blessed Virgin Mary to her cousin Elizabeth. Mary, served her cousin for three months. The feast was instituted by Pope Urban VI in 1389.

In the Visitation, the one who visited was most holy. Mary's action was inspired by humility and charity. The person visited was holy and the fruits of the visit were admirable: the sanctity of John the baptizer, and the infusion of the Holy Spirit into Elizabeth, and Zechariah's regaining of his speech. We, too, should make our visits holy
