Congratulations Pioneer Group of the Year!

Thank you Monday Morning Group & Thank you Metchosin!

Three decades ago St. Mary's Monday Morning Group formed with the goal to clear out overgrown vegetation at the cemetery. 

Today, men and women, from St. Mary's and the Metchosin Community, continue with care of the cemetery and Heritage Church.

Every Monday, all year long, without exception, the crew meets at 9:00 am to work for an hour or so, followed by coffee time and shared conversation, on site.
