Stephen Swoboda , in the wheelchair , with the help of his Father, Louis built us a planter to grow flowers for Our Lady . Everyone brings flowers or seeds to plant and we have had fragrant lovely blooms for Her all summer long.
Members were thrilled to have Our Lady of Fatima visit them for a few days before moving on to the next home. She was left to the Okanagan MI by our previous dearly loved and dearly missed Spiritual Director , Father Mac. |

We usually start our gathering with a visit to the Virgin in the Grotto that overlooks Nicola Lake and then sing and process into the church to continue."
