On Friday, September 17th, 2021, in the beautiful Botanical Gardens which are located in Cow Head, three parishes came together to hold a special service for the Season of Creation. It was led by clergy from the three parishes: Port Saunders, Cow Head, and Bonne Bay North. Approximately 20 people from the three parishes attended. The service was beautiful.

The Botanical Garden in Cow Head is adjacent to St. Mary’s Anglian Church, and was begun in 2001. It contains 43 flower beds, and is a peaceful and beautiful place to spend some time in prayer and contemplation in this garden beside the sea.

There is no fee to go to the Botanical Garden, but donations are appreciated. For more information, visit their Facebook page, “St. Mary’s Botanical Garden.”
