(14th and 15th August) There will be prayer in and around the Marian Garden just before Mass, followed by a procession into Mass. Please arrive in good time, grab a hymn book, and head outside. In the event of inclement weather – eg snow – we shall start in the hall. Please bring your rosary beads and your chosen decade. This is an important devotion for our children and teens.
