Great mystics and saints from across the ages and cultures remind us that the Earth is our Mother and that Gardens are some of the best places to discover Hope, Beauty, and Connectedness.  In these stormy times of climate change and pollution, join Artist and Storyteller Brother Mickey McGrath as he shares his paintings and stories of WOMEN saints who teach us that our hearts are gardens and Christ is the Gardener!  From Mary Magdalene on Easter morning to Brigid of Ireland, Hildegard of Bingen, Teresa of Avila, and Kateri Tekakwitha – and more!  We will explore our desperate need to be better nurturers of creation and leave Mother Earth a better place for future generations.  Creative prayer activity will be included.
