Some of the parish may not know that there is even an open space from the northwest exit of the Presentation Center to the south exit of the Gathering Space. Within that area is the cornerstone for the Presentation Sisters Convent, the church, and the Academy. It is also an area that isn’t maintained well because of its location. This past weekend, my wife and I took to cleaning the area and sprucing up the bushes. Please stop by and visit the courtyard because there is a bench to sit on and it is very peaceful. However, it is easiest to enter and depart from the Presentation Center door, because you can’t enter from the Gathering Space.
