There are still a few Mary Boxes available. Email Judy at jlrowcliffe@comcast.net.
The first in person event is the Mary Open House from 1pm to 4pm on Saturday afternoon. Even if you haven’t participated in any of the Zoom session, please come by. See if you can find the 20 Marys that are on our campus. At this point, only Judy and Jacob know where they all are! There will also be a station for making the Anglican Rosary and a beautiful display of Mary art in the Upper Room.
My sermon this Sunday will also feature Mary.
Here’s the full description of the weekend:
Hello!
Welcome to Mary in the Scriptures, an exploration of this pivotal woman through scripture, games, music, film, art, scavenger hunt, open house and more, created by your Renewal Works team. This virtual and in-person event takes place Thursday and Friday evenings, Saturday throughout the day and concludes Sunday morning. Here’s your Mary Fun Box filled with silly and serious activities ranging from a recipe and everything you need for it, prayers and prayer cards, a word search game, small group movie discussion guide, Mary candle, Rosary-making supplies, classic Mary songs and lots of St. Paul’s swag. The weekend also features a Mary Exhibit (created by St. Paul’s parishioners) in the Upper Room, a movie on Friday, Mary Is All Around Us Scavenger Hunt on Saturday and soup for dinner, donations to Ritter Center and more.
