Miss Stephanie Wrona grew up on a farm on South St. with her sister and four brothers. They all attended St. Joseph School and most remained in the area, volunteering and participating in the church community for most of their lives. Stephanie spent her working career in Hartford in an insurance company. She was in the church choir, lead the congregation in praying the Rosary before the 8 a.m. Mass for many years, and joyfully gave of herself by cooking and baking for church events as well. Stephanie celebrated her 96th birthday in April of 2016, and moved into to St. Mary's in West Hartford from her family home as recently as 2014. All of us have older people in our lives who are no longer independant. Have a look while we join her in this photo visit !

40 Hours Devotion - 2015
(24 images)
It was time agin for our annual 40 Hours Devotion, early November, 2015. The Forty Hours Devotion is a kind of retreat experience for the entire parish. It's an opportunity to "unplug", to gather both individually and as a community before the Blessed Sacrament, to pray before the Lord, to deepen our appreciation of the importance of Him, to recognize His presence in our daily lives.
The number 40 calls to mind the rains during the time of Noah lasted 40 days and nights, Moses and the Jewish people in the desert for 40 years, and our Lord's 40 days of fasting and prayer be-fore beginning His public ministry. The Forty Hours Devotion also recalls that traditional "40-hour period" from our Lord's burial until the resurrection.
