The Meditation Garden and Remembrance Walkway at Our Lady of Mount Virgin Church is an outdoor Prayer Garden. It is available to the public for quiet prayer and reflection throughout the year.
With the Grotto of Mary as its centerpiece, the Meditation Garden contains Stations of the Cross, a “Rosary Garden” and statues of favorite saints of our parish. Evergreen bushes and biblically based flowers and plants (in season) enhance the spiritual ambiance of the Meditation Garden. A “Remembrance Walkway” welcomes parishioners as they stroll through the garden; spending time in prayer, remembering loved ones or sharing private thoughts with our Lord. Benches placed in the garden encourage parishioners to “sit and stay” for a while, sharing time with God and remembering friends and family members.
The Meditation Garden and Remembrance Walkway at Our Lady of Mount Virgin Church is that special place of prayer and meditation where any person can find rest for the soul and renew the spirit in the stillness of God’s presence.
