Rollins Student to Plan for a more Environmentally Friendly “front yard”  at St. Richard’s

My name is Tracey Comazzi. I am a junior at Hamilton Holt School, Rollins College majoring in Environmental Studies and Sustainable Urbanism. I chose Hamilton Holt School because I feel this major, and the four pillars of Rollins’ mission: Global Citizenship, Responsible Leadership, Meaningful Lives, and Productive Careers, will prepare me well for my future endeavors. The school also offers valuable classes that are not taught anywhere else such as Dr. Leslie Poole’s “Women and the Environment” class which is truly empowering. Read more>>>

When at St. Richard’s Church or passing by on the way to your everyday activities, visit our “Prayer Tree” on the front lawn of the Church near the sacristy door. Step under the tree canopy, open the prayer tree box and write your thoughts, wishes and prayers on the enclosed white card. Slip the white card in the zip lock plastic sleeve being careful to seal the zip lock sleeve to protect your prayer from the weather and then hang it on the “Prayer Tree”.  It has been said, prayers hung on a prayer tree will stay in place for years to come despite stormy weather conditions.

We especially invite you to bring the children of St. Richard’s as well as the surrounding area to the tree for prayer and reflection. The right side of the tree has a low area where the children can hang their prayers. Our “prayer tree” provides all of us the opportunity to express ourselves in a heartfelt and unique way.
