Wednesday, November 09, 2011 - We continue to grow...The Sisters of St. Joseph of Peace (sponsors of Stella Maris) replaced our bulkhead... Due to damage done to our bulkhead, The Sisters of St. Joseph of Peace (sponsors of Stella Maris) replaced our bulkhead with a steel structure which is supported by braces. Once that was completed, 2000 tons of environmentally sound sand was added, and 18,000 plugs of dune grace were planted to anchor the sand. It was an amazing engineering feat. The new bulkhead has already withstood Hurricane Irene and some other October storms.

Monday, February 02, 2009 - Adjunct Staff of Spiritual Directors offer Spiritual Direction Spiritual Direction, sometimes referred to as spiritual guidance or spiritual friendship, is an on going relationship in which one person (the directee) desirous of being attentive to his or her spiritual life, meets with another person (the director) on a regular basis, specifically for the purpose of becoming more attuned to God's presence in order to respond more fully to the Presence in one's life. There is usually a fee attached to this ministry which can be discussed with the director. If you are interested in exploring spiritual direction, please email one of the directors below to set up an initial time to meet at Stella Maris. Brief bios of the directors are found on the presenter page on this website.
