Holy Conversation: Living Stations

Why the name?

"Holy Conversation" does sound like an exceptionally pious name, even for a parish blog. And we can't guarantee that everything here will meet the high standard the name implies. But the phrase comes from the story of our patron saint, and we think it fits. Here's why.

St. Scholastica was a sixth-century abbess who, according to the Dialogues of Pope Gregory I, used to meet once a year with her brother, St. Benedict. On the last occasion they were together, they spent their time "satisfying each other's hunger for holy conversation about the spiritual life."

We hope that this blog can become a place where the members of our parish can find a taste of the companionship and conversation that Scholastica and Benedict enjoyed so much. Welcome!

Living Stations

Members of our youth ministry enacted Living Stations at noon on Good Friday. Their presentation was as prayerful and moving as those we remember from past years. Thanks to all the young parish members who participated, and to the adults who aided them!

Living Stations

On Good Friday evening, our young people once again presented Living Stations. The event was conducted with the dignity and devotion that have been its hallmark at St. Scholastica. Thanks to all the young people who took part, and to the leaders of our Youth Ministry who guided them!
