The Visitation: a meeting between Mary and Elizabeth, an expression of joyful companionship and support, an occasion of celebration. As they greet one another, Elizabeth exclaims, “Blessed are you among women.”
Blessed Among Women: a meeting of women seeking to better recognize how God has blessed us with the companionship of one another to celebrate our shared faith in the way Our Blessed Mother and St. Elizabeth demonstrated so beautifully.
We meet Wednesday afternoons from 1:00pm-2:30pm in the St. John Henry Newman Room (enter through main Parish Office doors). The widely acclaimed Abiding Together podcast presented by Sr. Miriam James Heidland, Michelle Benzinger, and Heather Khym will provide the foundation for our reflection and casual conversation in our upcoming gatherings.
