Please consider coming along to our working bee on Saturday, the 20th of December, and helping keep the Shrine beautiful and spiritually uplifting for our local area and the pilgrims who visit. This Shrine is a treasure to the Order, the Diocese, and the country; any help and any form of talent are always most welcome.
During this month’s working bee, we will focus on the International Chapels. What is attempted depends on who attends and their interests. The list includes:
- Mowing
- Weeding
- Mulchuing
- General cleanup
It would greatly assist in planning if anyone interested in coming would let Fr. Joseph Maria know what projects they might be interested in working on. It is not expected that we will be able to complete the entire list.
If you have tools that can help with the particular task you are interested in, you are encouraged to bring them along.
The program for the day would be:
- Mass at around 8:15 am in the Shrine Church
- Begin work at 9 am at the back of the property
- Lunch around 1:30 pm
- Finish around 3:30 pm (for those who can stay the whole day).
The Fathers and Brothers pray for the intentions of volunteers to the Shrine every day.
