BOSTON – The sound of prayer emanated from the red-brick St. Peter Lithuanian Parish church in South Boston Sunday as the unfamiliar language of Lithuania took hold.
The prayer song concluded as short line of newly minted almuni of the Lithuanian School, dressed in traditional garments, trooped out into the sunny afternoon. They had come from around Boston to spend Saturdays at the school over the past academic year, learning the language and studying the culture of their ethnic homeland.
BOSTON – With sunny skies and warm weather finally arriving, the outdoor interactive space Lawn on D in South Boston's Seaport District is slated to open this weekend despite fiscal issues that had raised concerns about its future.
The 2.7-acre park, supported by Citizens Bank, provides an adult playground that has become a family favorite and a gathering spot for young adults in the Boston area. It officially opens for the season at 7 a.m. Saturday.
