On Sunday, Oct. 23, St. Martin Deanery Catholic Rural Life will sponsor a very special program for the Year of Mercy. Starting at 3 p.m., a procession will visit historic and naturally beautiful sites on the grounds of the Brown County Ursulines in St. Martin, Ohio (Brown County) as we reflect on the our care for God’s creation and the legacy of those who have cared for it in the past.

The afternoon will include prayer, walking to four sites on the property (farmland, Settlers’ Cemetery, waterway and Sisters’ Cemetery), ending with Benediction in the Chapel. Those who wish to participate should come to the Chapel at 20860 State Route 251, St. Martin, Ohio 45118, where the outdoor procession will start.

The event will be held rain or shine and vehicles will be provided for those who may not be able to walk around the grounds. The Ursuline Archives will be open from 2 p.m. to 2:45 p.m.

A cookie and coffee reception will follow Benediction. For more information, call Patrick Hornschemeier 513-752-0647 or Marilyn Fryer 937-515-9075.
