Maryknoll Christmas Exhibits In Ossining

It’s getting to look a lot like Christmas…and the Maryknoll Mission Center at 55 Ryder Road in Ossining invites everyone to enjoy two new Maryknoll Christmas exhibits.

In the Maryknoll Museum of Living Mission, experience “Maryknoll Celebrates Christmas At Home and Around the World” with photos of the Maryknoll property decorated for the season, the people of Asia and Latin American celebrating Christmas with the Maryknoll Fathers and Brothers, and Christmas messages from several Maryknollers through the years. The exhibit will be displayed until mid-January.

In the Spellman Room, explore Maryknoll Brother Martin Shea’s “The Joy of Mission” to see the heartwarming message of mission that he has experienced in Guatemala for more than 30 years. Fifteen large panels feature the wonderful people of Guatemala. Images are accompanied by the words and prayers of peace and Christmas. The exhibit will be featured until early January.

The exhibits are free and open to the public. Hours are Monday-Saturday, 10 a.m. – 3 p.m., with extended hours during special Christmas events.

For directions, visit the Maryknoll website.

Maryknoll also adapted Brother Shea’s exhibit to a slide show that appears on YouTube.
