St. Patrick School in Brighton has a walkable Rosary Garden that the students built. It has 12 inch circle stones that make up the rosary and bricks to make up the cross. Each year, the students draw the mysteries and these are placed in stands around the garden to protect them from the weather.Mrs. Elaine Cooney, who spearheaded the garden, enlisted the help of Rob Baldwin, a local iron worker, to make the stands for the garden. It became quite a journey of faith for him. Rob listened to Gregorian chants and prayed over each piece of metal he forged. He added gold to represent God and blue beads for our Blessed Mother. The metal stands Rob forged through fire and prayer not only enhanced the garden but also mean a great deal to St. Patrick School.
