If you are seeking to find hope, strength and comfort from a loss, burden or sorrow, join us for A Journey with Mary Through Her Seven Sorrows, a seven-week program sponsored by the Catholic Family Services Office. The program will explore each of the seven sorrows of Mary’s life and the message of strength and encouragement each one contains. The program is based on the book Your Sorrow is My Sorrow by Sr. Joyce Rupp.

The program will run in two sessions in two locations: Wednesday mornings September 26, October, 10, 17, 24, 31, November 7, 14 from 10-11:30 A.M. at St. Mary Parish Hall, 1600 Main St., Coventry, CT; or, Thursday evenings September 27, October 11, 18, 25, November 8, 15 and Tuesday, November 6 from 7-8:30 P.M. at St. Patrick Parish Hall, 47 W. High St., East Hampton, CT. Each week will include a reflection on one of Mary’s sorrows, guided prayer imagery and discussion. The program is free, but registration is required. To do so, or, for more information, contact Mary-Jo McLaughlin at the Catholic Family Services Office, 860-848-2237, Ext. 306, or email mmclaughlin@norwichdiocese.net.
