"Mary Strong" Rosary Prayer Group

The “Mary Strong” rosary prayer group meets between our 8 and 10 am services, on Sundays at 9:15 am in the church, starting April 7th.
Never prayed the rosary before? No problem! This group will teach you everything you need to know.
Yes, Episcopalians can and do pray the rosary! Just as we ask our friends to pray for us, we can ask the saints—that great cloud of witnesses—to intercede on our behalf. Praying the rosary draws us close to the heart of St. Mary the God-bearer as we meditate on Jesus’ ministry, crucifixion, resurrection and ascension.
