When we are in Marathon, we participate in the Parish of San Pablo. We love the beautiful and serene gardens that have grown up on the property. It is a constant work in progress as each flock of snowbirds and regular parishioners leave their mark. It is such a special place.
This is a memorial of all the innocent children lost to abortion.
The end of the property is next to mangroves facing the ocean.
New since our last visit is meditation pillars for the four gospels
of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
The pathways are lined with beautiful plantings.
This is one of the stained windows in the main church.
People donate stone benches to honor loved ones.
A meditation area dedicated to St. Francis of Assisi.
This is the beginning of the Rosary garden.
Another beautiful pathway with a bench to rest and contemplate.
This is the welcome sign. In the background is the parish hall.
You start the path between the church and hall.
It has nooks all along the way for quiet prayer and meditation.
A memorial to St. Padre Pio
One of the oldest shrines in the gardens.
This is a beautiful and intricately cast bench
donated by a family honoring their parents.
This fountain is in the middle of the gardens.
This Shrine to Our Lady is at the entrance.
It's mirror is across from her.
Room for several to sit and pray.
