With gratitude in our hearts, the American Heritage Girls Troop NY1315 here at St. Francis present the outdoor Stations of the Cross between the rectory and the church. Our troop has been blessed with the prayers, encouragement and generosity of our parishioners during these first four years as a troop, and while we serve others in our local, national and global community, we wanted to serve our charter organization of St. Francis in a special way.
The girls sanded, stained, nailed and posted the 14 station crosses. It is our hope that everyone can prayerfully reflect on the Way of the Cross while enjoying God’s Creation outdoors.
We would like to thank all of our girl members and our troop families, most especially those who prepped and installed crosses for this project:
