Matthew 5:7 “Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.”
Thank you for sharing your time, talent and treasure, especially with the youth.
My name is Gabriel Vega and I am an OLOR Troop 33 Boy Scout trying to achieve the highest rank of Eagle. To become an Eagle rank, I need to demonstrate leadership through designing and conducting a service project that will benefit and enhance the community that it is placed in. My Eagle project is to build a Rosary Meditation Garden located on the property of Our Lady of the Rosary Catholic Church, in the middle of the Stations of the Cross. I will utilize the engraved concrete pavers as the Holy Rosary around the garden. There are 3 major parts to the project.
In a Rosary necklace there are about 60 beads that make it up, and each “bead” will be a paver engraved with whatever the sponsor wants written on it; remembrance, celebration or recognition. Second, the Rosary pavers, because it will form a circular shape, there will be an actual garden with a Holy Mother statue, couple benches to sit and give thanks. Third, the last part to this project is laying a path that wraps around all 600 feet of the crosses called the Stations of the Cross which will connect the Rosary Garden to this path to make it look like one beautiful place to give thanks and praise.
I ask for your prayers, support and donations to make this happen. Please considering giving what you can to make this all possible. We can’t do this alone, as it is too big for any one person or group. Any and all help, is deeply appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your prayers and support. Please give what you can!
