New Children's Rosary to Meet in Sulphur, Louisiana Tomorrow

It is truly a special event to have a new Children's Rosary group meet for the first time.  At the first meeting the group is consecrated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Immaculate Heart of Mary.  Such a gift to Our Lord and Our Lady is a beautiful thing to imagine.  The efforts of one or more souls to bring children to prayer of the Rosary must bring such joy to Our Lord who so loves the prayers of children.  


Our Lady of LaSalette
Each month I like to imagine Our Lady comes before Our Lord.  He asks her, which groups do you want this month?  She then shares with Him those special little groups her heart has been waiting for.  With each group that forms Our Lady has more prayers to bring to her Son and hence He grants her more groups.  It becomes exponential.  This is simply how I like to imagine this happening.  Yet one thing that has become clear is that the speed of the new groups is becoming faster and faster.  Every few days another person contacts us feeling called to begin a group.  These new groups could start with just one child or two children and those feeling called to begin a group should never feel worried that their are not enough children in their parish.  Many of our group leaders do not even have small children.  Our Lady looks for willing hearts close to her to begin a group everything else pales in comparison. With an open heart and a simple yes to Our Lady she helps put the pieces in place.   Those interested in beginning a group please contact Blythe Kaufman at blythe.kaufman@gmail.com and we will also help you as best we can.


Children's Rosary at St. Mary's Church
in Corvallis Oregon
This weekend a new Children's Rosary group is meeting at 9:30 AM Central time at Our Lady of LaSalette Church in Sulphur, Louisiana.  The name of the Church is in honor of Our Blessed Mother who appeared in the Swiss Alps to two small children who were shepherding cows.  She appeared on Sept 19th 1846 on the Feast of Our Lady of Sorrows. Our Blessed Mother cried during the apparition with the children.  In LaSalette Our Lady pointed out the great blessing and mercy of the Holy Rosary.  It is thus such a consolation to have children meeting in prayer of the Rosary in a Church named after a time in history when Our Lady came to children with requests of prayer and reconciliation.

We also have two other groups meeting on Saturday.
The Children's Rosary at Our Lady of Fatima Parish in Timor Leste will meet on Saturday at 3:00PM local time.
The Children's Rosary at St. Mary's Church in Corvallis, Oregon will meet at 9AM Pacific time.

Please consider joining the children in prayer either at the Church or from your home.  The children always pray for those unifying prayers with them
