Cardinal Blesses Bronx Prayer Garden 

Posted

Cardinal Dolan celebrated Mass indoors, and then blessed and dedicated a new prayer garden at St. John-Visitation parish in the Bronx May 21.

The garden has already become a place of contemplation for parishioners,  said Father Michael Kerrigan, pastor of St. John-Visitation. “It offers a quiet location to get away for prayer, reading and meditation.”

Cardinal Dolan also blessed rosaries from Bethlehem given to families of students in the religious education program, and prayer cards in English and Spanish were distributed to everyone in attendance.

The prayer garden was a Renew+Rebuild parish restoration project.
