Open House

Saturday  June 15, 2013
Our Lady's Workshop
12 - 4 p.m.

 

About 70 pilgrims gathered for the Open House at Our Lady’s Workshop. They got a first-hand look of our sizeable operation when they toured the offices and pressroom. They also enjoyed good conversation, refreshments and our gardens.

 
 

President Michael Mangan, Lay Order of St Michael (LOSM), showing the pilgrims the reliquary (pictured below) that contains a piece of the crucifix that Veronica of the Cross would clutch during her ecstasy and that the Blessed Mother would kiss at every Vigil. Some pilgrims had the special privilege of venerating this at the end of the tour.

Anniversary Gift Shop  Rosaries, medals, books and other sacramentals were laid out and made available to the pilgrims who obtained many items for their loved ones back home. Our Lady's Worker, Alice Dennis (c.) of Bay Shore, N.Y., assisted the devotees.
