Hello all! My name is Olivia, and I’m a new parishioner here
at St. Mary’s. I thought I should introduce myself since I’ll be blogging a
little for the Young Adult group. I have been overwhelmed by the welcome I
received from the St. Mary’s community and by the range of activities offered.
Maryfair was amazing – who else loved the fans? I was also
impressed by the tenacity of the turtle racers, the abundance of food, and the
flyby of the vintage airplanes.
I recently attended the Young Adult’s
Party at the Parsonage. A crowd of us shared in excellent food and still more
excellent conversation with Father Jack at the rectory – leftover Maryfair
beans never tasted so good.
To commemorate Our Lady of the Rosary, the Legion of Mary gathered
to make a
living rosary after the 5 pm Mass. We stood around a huge rope rosary, and each
person led part of a decade. The music, courtesy of Kathy Beckham, was
fabulous, and I left with a renewed sense of grace.
Maryfair, Party at the Parsonage, and the Living Rosary:
Family, fellowship, and prayer. Each experience was immensely rewarding, and if
you haven’t done so, I highly recommend taking advantage of all St. Mary’s has
to offer. As a new parishioner, I can’t wait to become more involved in this
warm community!
