At the entrance Our Lord invites you to enter with these words, “I shall lead you into solitude & there I will speak to your heart.” As you walk the path the large diamond shaped pavers speak to you from the bible with familiar scripture quotes from Jesus. These larger pavers also have roses inscribed above the readings as a tribute to Our Lady in the grotto. The garden path is in the shape of a cross, a symbol of our Catholic faith. At the end of the garden is a grotto housing a marble statue of Our Lady of Perpetual Help. We hope visitors to the Prayer Garden will see it as a visual reminder of their faith as it provides a serene refuge where they can spend time with God. There’s something peaceful about sitting outdoors enjoying the “silence” of the birds, the view of the mountains, a gentle breeze. While we can pray anytime and anywhere, it’s those times we spend in quiet, away from noise and the distractions of our daily lives that we can speak from our hearts and listen to what God is saying.
