Quiet Places

In 1701, Charles Carrol, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, purchased land in Annapolis. In 1821 he transferred part of his property for a church and two years later St. Mary’s opened. Today, members of the Congregation of the Most Holy Redeemer, the Redemptorists, serve over 7,500 parishioners and support over 60 ministries. St. Mary’s has wonderfully been my parish for over 20 years. May you have a blessed day full of hope and love.

If you can, take some time to sit this week and relax-maybe with someone special.

Getting up early to see the sunrise and wanted to walk out on the pier. That’s fine, I was able to get the code to the locked gate. I didn’t realize that you need to enter the code to exit as well. No problem, I think I recall. First time, doesn’t work. Second time the same. Third again doesn’t work. The water is only a 3 feet deep, but cold. Try the code one more time, it works! I’ve been back a few times now and the lock always sticks on the exit, and my heart races each time.
