Quote of the Week
'Look upon yourself as a tree planted beside the water, which bears its fruit in due season; the more it is shaken by the wind, the deeper it strikes its roots into the ground.' -St. Margaret Mary Alacoque
Slowly, but surely, the Stations of the Cross are nearing completion! Thursday morning was the scene of a sanding session for the Stations thanks to the efforts of a few parishioners and volunteer artisan Travis Norville. Norville has already completed 3 of the 14 stations by himself, but is getting some much needed help from parish members with the other 11. Currently, the remaining stations need to be sanded down and smoothed out to save Travis time so he can go straight to repainting them. Thursday's volunteers finished 2 more stations and then 2 were taken home to be sanded down. Travis was on hand to show the volunteers the proper technique and give them pointers on how to correctly sand the stations. Another work day is being planned so more volunteers can come out and help finish the priming for all of the stations. Many hands make light work!
