Faith Formation

We would like to thank all the families and parishioners that have been dropping off rocks for OLG Rock Prayer Garden. Rocks are still available to be picked up. There is a container outside the garages at OLG Parish Office. We have started this project at this time to unite all of us in prayer. We have asked all our Faith Formation families to decorate a rock for our Prayer Garden. We would like to extend the invitation to all our parishioners, again uniting us in prayer. You can paint the rock or leave it plain, your choice. The rocks can be returned anytime by bringing back the decorated rocks and putting them back in the plastic container outside the garages at OLG Parish Office. We will have a drive through on Saturday, August 22 from 10:00 am – 12:00 pm where you can come and drop off your rocks in the parking lot in the back of OLG school by staying in your cars. Put your rock/rocks in a bag and we will take them through your window or out of your trunk. After the drive through we will be setting up a Prayer Rock Garden on OLG property. Any questions email denisebartelson@olgstratford.com or call 203-375-6133.

Don’t walk behind me because I may not want to lead. Don’t walk ahead of me I may not want to follow. Walk aside me and be my friend!

Prayer is a powerful tool and I am sure many of you can witness to that, but if you have not been one to turn to prayer this will be a good place to start. A few months ago at a Family Mass we talked about the importance of prayer. We talked about starting a Prayer Walk and asked families to sign up to be part of our Prayer Walk. With the Prayer Walk we send you an email when we receive special prayer intentions. We have about 35 parishioners at this time signed up. If you would like to participate in this Prayer Walk you can sign up by sending us your name and email to denisebartelson@olgstratford.com. We send out an email about once a month to everyone who signs up and we ask you to pray when we receive special prayer intentions.

Hope you will join us on our Prayer Walk! To follow us click here.
