On Wednesday, September 18, 2024, the annual Mass Praying for Mental Health: Awareness and Actions for a Culture of Acceptance, will take place at 6 p.m. at St. Joseph Church in New London. St. Joseph Church in New London was chosen for the Mental Health Awareness mass because is houses a unique statue of St. Dymphna, patroness of mental health, depression and nervous disorders.
