On Aug. 15, Bishop Fabre solemnly blessed Mepkin Abbey’s new rosary garden. The day included Scripture readings, a homily for the Solemnity of the Assumption, and the rosary prayed in Spanish, Tagalog and English.

Bishop Fabre traveled to St. Mary Church in Rock Hill in the afternoon for Mass and gathering, as part of a Pastoral Visit follow up. The event welcomed the broader community to celebrate together as an evangelization effort. He was joined by Bishop Robert P. Boxie, III, auxiliary for the Archdiocese of Washington, currently the youngest bishop in the United States.

Then on Sunday, Bishop Fabre solemnly blessed the new sanctuary and graveyard at Precious Blood of Christ Church on Pawleys Island, celebrating Mass with the community afterward. (More photos to come)
