Transformed By Light
The Story of London’s Rosary Shrine Garden
Joanna Bogle
Illustrated
by Malcolm Surridge
Foreword by George Weigel
The Rosary Garden at Haverstock Hill has been planted with flowers chosen specifically
for their links with Mary. The path follows a circular route with various Mysteries
depicted, and at the heart is a statue of Mary as Our lady of Cana, by American sculptor
Cody Swanson. The link with Cana is important, not only because the Marriage at Cana
is one of the Luminous Mysteries, but because it was Cana, where the wedding took
place ‘on the third day’, that Christ spoke of His ‘time’, His future Death and Resurrection.
The
creation of a new Rosary Garden in London in the early years of the 21st century,
and at a time when England is being re-dedicated to Mary as her dowry, is a statement
about the importance of beauty, as well as a practical way of helping us to pray.
