The Museum of Family Prayer is still accepting entries as we approach the July 26, 2021 deadline for the 2nd Annual Mary Garden Contest! Father Jim Phalan, C.S.C., sits down with Currents News of New York to discuss last year's entries, what's happening this year, and the inspiration behind the contest.

Gardening is a wonderful activity to do as a family. It can teach us lessons and bring us closer to one another. The Museum of Family Prayer encourages families to pray together –  wherever they are – so why not try a garden dedicated to Our Lady? 

We hope that caring for your Mary Garden will offer you an opportunity to spend time in prayer with Mary, draw closer to Jesus, and welcome God into your family life. 

"The family that prays together stays together" - Venerable Patrick Peyton
