The Children's Rosary® is a prayer group movement that was begun out of love for Our Lady and Her Son. Jesus tells us "Truly, I say to you unless you turn and become like children you will never enter the Kingdom of Heaven" (Matthew 18:3). The Children's Rosary is an effort to begin in parishes rosary prayer groups composed of children and led by children. Through prayer of the Rosary Our Lady will guide our young people while at the same time sanctify families and Parishes.

A Special Moment with Our Lady
Yesterday was my son's First Communion. After the Mass my husband suggested that Kostin take a picture with his mom. So Kostin and I posed together followed by a family picture. On the way back to the car Kostin stopped and asked if he could be in a picture with Mary. As we were just getting to our car the first reaction was to tell him it was too late and it was time to go home. However, there was something that made me pause and say, yes lets just wait a minute so Kostin can visit Mary. Kostin then ran off to the outside garden planted by children of the parish for Our Blessed Mother. When my husband and I turned the corner Kostin was kneeling in prayer. He then stood up and gave Mary the the rose that had been given to him during his First Communion and then kissed her head. It was such a beautiful moment to see that Kostin didn't forget his dear Mother Mary. Daily he prays with her in his rosaries. Over years she, as the most perfect of mothers, has been preparing him for the day when he would meet her Son present in the Holy Eucharist. To see Kostin kissing Our Blessed Mother's head in such a tender way was such a beautiful reminder of how much our children need their heavenly Mother and how much they love her when they spend time with her in prayer.
