As part of our prayer initiative to pray for seminarians a Mass was offered today for all seminarians that they may grow in holiness and lead us in love. On the first of every month a Mass is offered for this intention. In addition the children are also praying for the same intention in their prayer groups.
There is an awareness that these seminarians are our future shepherds and these children are the future flock. It is therefore particularly important for the children to pray for these young men. It is also beautiful to contemplate that many Seminarians this month have been ordained as priests and are going out to parishes and missions around the world.
A special thank you to the member of the Children's Rosary who sponsored this Mass. It is so wonderful to have so many hearts coming together in prayer and sacrifice.
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.
