Mary's Prayer Group

This group is open to all!  Meetings are usually on every other Tuesday night at 7:30 pm at St Mary.  We meet in Mary's Garden weather permitting or in the church.  

After the opening prayer, a Gospel reading is read aloud, and attendees share (if they wish) how the reading impacts them. We then offer intentions for our prayers, and pray the rosary.
We hope you can join us!!

Prayer meetings are also streamed on our church Facebook and YouTube pages for those who prefer to attend online.
