St. Mary and St. Philip parishes of Grafton have been incorporating creative ways to engage the community in these pandemic times. We did "Advent Outdoors" at Christmas time and participated in the town's "Best Lights Display" competition. For Lent 2021, the Grafton Catholic Youth Group sponsored an outside Stations of the Cross that included making an Easter craft and cards to mail to our home-bound parishioners (which has tripled due to COVID) and had our youth lead the Stations. We were so thrilled to see young and old participate, with about 40 people present on a lovely Friday evening back on March 19th!

Attached is a group photo, but you can also check out our full website photo album here.
