The Iron Rosary ministry team is pleased to share several fall projects with the congregationand community.
 
First, we have formatted and printed the heartfelt prayers brought back by the Guatemala mission team, so they can be shared with and prayed for by all who pass by the prayer fence.  Look for them tied on the fence with orange ribbons. 

Next, for All Souls’ day/All Saints’ Day, we will be offering the congregation and the community an opportunity to write prayers in memory of their loved ones in spirit. We have special prayer cards which will be available for this, but of course we welcome any cards you wish to give us. If you offer homemade cards, please try to keep them to the size 3in by 4in, or smaller. Pass them along to us by placing them in our basket at the back of the church, or in the prayer collection box on the fence near Main Street. 

Finally, on Sunday, November 10th, the day before Veteran’s Day, Amy will be leading us in hosting a prayer table in honor and memory of both active duty and former service members. She is a volunteer for the Valhalla Sailing Project,  teaching active duty military, veterans, and their families to sail.  Amy comes from a military family, and veterans are near and dear to her heart.
Stay tuned for more on our fall activities, as well as our Advent plans, coming soon.

We are facing challenging times in our country and our world right now, simultaneous with the changing of the season. Shorter days and chilly fall weather is pulling us indoors more. This turning inward is a time of contemplation. We hope you will share your heart with us and with our community through the prayers and inspirational thoughts you leave with us at the Iron Rosary prayer fence. 

Peace and love be with you all ,
Amy, Ariel, Julie, Karen, and Mary-Sophia.
