Sunday Night Prime Interview

If you missed the the EWTN interview on Sunday Night Prime about the Children's Rosary which aired one year ago today it can be viewed in its entirety below.    Fr. Apostoli host of Sunday Night prime shared this at the end of the show:

"You have heard a program about a wonderful movement, Children's Rosary, which is drawing our young people.  This is our future if we do not sow seeds now there will be no harvest later on.  This is exactly what the Children's Rosary is doing, reaching out to these little ones.  Stirring their hearts, preparing them as the road ahead will not be an easy one". (Fr. Anderw Apostoli CFR Host of Sunday Night Prime)

This show aired one year ago today on the Feast of the Archangels.  Many wonderful people have reached out over this past year and we have seen this movement spread to 5 continents and to 22 States in the Unites States.  This is a grassroots movement so each person is so important to helping see this movement spread more.

The Children's Rosary is a prayer group movement for children.  It is a way for parents to bring their children to prayer with Our Heavenly Mother in a structured way.  In a time when so many things try to make our children grow up so fast this is a way to help keep our children...children and protect their beautiful purity with the help of the most perfect of Mothers: Our Blessed Mother.

Our Lord has said, "Let the children come to me; do not prevent them, for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these"(Matthew 10:14).  We therefore bring Our children to their Heavenly Mother in prayer of the Holy Rosary.  With open hearts they walk with Our Lady to her Son and with them may we all follow.

Please consider sharing the Children's Rosary with people in your area and within your Parish. If you are interested in starting a Children's Rosary or have any questions please contact Blythe Kaufman at blythe.kaufman@gmail.com

We also have a Children's Rosary book which explains step by step how to start a Children's Rosary prayer group and also has all the prayers of the Rosary and mysteries with illustrations for the children to use in prayer of the Rosary.

Novena of the Most Holy Rosary

Novena (September 29th-October 7th) 

The prayer below is to be said daily for 9 days.

Dear Blessed Mother Queen of the Holy Rosary,

We entreat you today to place your hand in ours and gently guide us and our families to your Son.  Through the mysteries of the Most Holy Rosary may we come to imitate the ways of your Son and grow daily in the virtues.  May through this time together in prayer may we come to a deeper friendship and love with the Holy Trinity and you Our Mother.  Through this Novena of prayers we humbly place an intention before you *_______ and ask you to bring it before your Son.  Blessed Mother Mary we love you and ask that you place the Rosary spiritually around us that we and our families might be protected from evil and led on the straight path to the Kingdom which awaits us.

(Pray one Hail Mary, one Our Father and one Glory Be daily)

*Intention

(As the Children's Rosary just finished a week of 9 days of prayer and fasting which yielded many blessings and gifts we would like to humbly suggest that we join together for the intention of THANKSGIVING TO OUR LORD).

Thank You

Dear Friends,

Thank you so much for joining us for this 9 days of Prayer and Fasting.  It was so beautiful to see as the days went on more and more people joined from all over the world. Being able to support the International Week of Prayer and Fasting that Pope John Paul II helped to begin over 20 years ago is truly important. In addition to praying for the three intentions of the International week of prayer and fasting, conversion of nations, protection of life and for peace, we also included the intention:

May Our Lady's plans for you, your family, the Children's Rosary and how the Children's Rosary affects the world be realized. 

I want to share with you some of the wonderful gifts that we were given this week. We received news that a new Children’s Rosary group would be forming in Shrub Oaks NY at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish.  They have chosen October 4th, the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi, to Consecrate their new group to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Immaculate Heart of Mary.  We also heard from another another group that they will hold their first meeting on the Feast of the Holy Rosary October 7th at the Parish of St. Anthony in Taylor Mill, KY.  A priest directing the Pontifical Missions in New Zealand also contacted us this week and will be helping to spread our prayer group movement in schools throughout New Zealand during the month of October.

We also received word that a group that had faced an obstacle for a time in meeting would be meeting again starting in October.  Indeed help was coming for existing groups as well as granting us new ones.

Indeed there were beautiful gifts given which were clearly evident but we know that many of the graces poured down through prayer and sacrifice are hidden to us while we are here on earth.  In our own lives, we may see struggles and suffering mounting on us and our family and wonder why such things may be happening when we are trying to help Our Lord.  Recently one of the Children’s Rosary group leaders shared a story of a Holocaust survivor she heard speak.  The women was in a Nazi concentration camp with her sister.  The women of their barrack would try to hide bits of the Bible and read them together.  They would routinely come together in prayer and say what they were thankful for each day.  The barracks where they lived was infested with fleas and one day her sister thanked God for the fleas.  As this was causing considerable suffering for them, the speaker shared that she became angry with her sister for thanking God for such an affliction. She could not understand why one would thank God for fleas.    The speaker shared that sadly her sister did not survive the camps.  She also shared that at one speaking engagement after the war a man approached her and said he had been a guard in the camp she was imprisoned in.  He extended his hand to shake hers.  It was difficult for her to be able to extend her hand back but she felt God calling her to forgiveness.  She shook his hand and he then said, you know your sister was right to thank God for the fleas.  He went on to share that the Nazi guards routinely would rape the women in the camp but they were aware that her particular barrack was infested with fleas and would never go in there.  The women were spared this terror.  

After hearing this story I have thought of it often.  More and more I began to see in my own suffering such as my joint deterioration and joint instability as a blessing.  I remember when I was able to drive that routinely I became angry and frustrated with drivers.  I knew this was one of my weaknesses.  After 5 years of not driving because of weakness in my hands, I have found myself becoming a very timid passenger.  Rather than aggression I am more aware of others zipping around and my hope is to just get to the destination safely.  Surprisingly I have forgotten the feeling of what it is like behind the wheel and my husband often gets annoyed with me that I am always worried we won’t stop in time.  There are many areas of my life that are simplified now and such an illness played a critical role in clarifying what is important.  I wonder for those of you reading this note what your fleas are in your life.  Are there places in our lives that are painful but may be there to protect us from something far more dangerous.

Our Lord calls us to empty ourselves as He did for us.  For although He humbled himself, God exalted Him and “bestowed on him the name which is above every name that at the name of Jesus every kneel should bow.” (Philippians 2:9-10)

As we finish this 9 days of prayer and fasting there is a feeling that we should begin tomorrow (September 29th)  a 9 day novena of thanksgiving ending on the Feast of the Holy Rosary.  

For although we may be blinded to what has been given to us we know Our Lord is never outdone in generosity.  These nine days will take us from the Feast of the Archangels through a week where we remember wonderful Saints such as St. Therese the Little Flower, St. Faustina, St. Francis and bring us to the glorious conclusion on the Feast of the Holy Rosary.

The Power of the Prayers of Grandparents

Today leaving Mass a mom came over to me.  She shared that her grandmother had just passed and she was just back from Oregon where she attended the funeral.  Her grandmother was 101 years old and had prayed the Rosary all her life.  With tears welling in her eyes she said she wanted to make the Rosary more a part of her life and her children's lives.  She asked me to help her and to encourage her and her children to come to the Children's Rosary.  This mom also coordinates the little lamb program during  the Sunday 10:30 Mass where the children ages 3-6 leave for a small portion of the Mass for explanation of the readings and Gospel.  She now feels compelled to give the children in her little lambs a Rosary and strongly encourage them to begin coming to our monthly Children's Rosary.

In Adoration after the Mass I began to think of this mom and how the faithfulness of her grandmother to the Rosary and her prayers had made a strong effect on her grown grandchild.  

The role of grandparent in the family is so important.  It is sometimes the safety net for many grandchildren who might not be exposed to the traditions of the Church.  Even in homes where families go to Mass together grandparents can build and support what is being given to children.  In these times which are so challenging to raise children, parents need all the help they can get.

One of the grandparents that leads a Children's Rosary in Louisiana shared, "I pray to our Lord that more grandparents will get involve with their grandchildren.  Me, for one, my closest granddaughter lives 1.15hr away, so I don't get to have her that much.  She was here for my birthday that happen to be (here) on the (Children's) Rosary day.  She is 9 and did beautifully.  I have a Vietnamese grandmother, may the Lord, bless her. She brings her 4 yr.old granddaughter every time.  It makes us proud.  Beautiful lady and child". 

The important role of grandparents in the Children's Rosary cannot be emphasized enough.  So many of our Children's Rosary groups were begun by grandparents some with their grandchildren living far away.  Yet they felt compelled to help other little ones. For Our Lord sees everything and provides for our family when we provide for others.

Children's Rosary, St. Michael the Archangel Parish

Recently one of our Children's Rosary group leaders from British Columbia Canada, Inez,  traveled to Kenya for the summer with her husband, daughter and niece.  Her goal was to help spread Children's Rosary groups throughout the area.  Earlier we shared the first group that began as a result of her trip at Our Lady of Grace Home for Children.  The second group to begin was in the Parish of St. Michael the Archangel in Langatta Nairobi, Kenya.  This group met for the first time on August 18th 2014 and was Consecrated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Immaculate Heart of Mary.  In this way the group is under the protection and guidance of Christ and His Mother.

This new group now meets weekly on Saturday mornings at 10AM in a small building within the Kibera slums.(While I was hesitant to call the meeting location, the Kibera slums, Inez confirmed that this is the name of the region and is the term all the local people use freely). The group rents a small room, in the building pictured behind the children, each Saturday morning to have a place for the children to meet. The black drum in the left side of the picture is a water tank where these children and their families come to buy clean water which comes at a precious price to them.

This group consists of approximately 70 children ages 1 to 14 years old. Some of the littlest ones are in the front row, a few in their pajamas. A wonderful religious sister is leading this Children's Rosary group. Inez shared that when she was speaking to the children about Our Blessed Mother and the beauty of the Rosary "they sat at full attention soaking up every word! The longing of the children in Africa for the word of God is astounding!"

Inez shared, "it is my hope and prayer that Our Lady will make this place her home and keep all the children safe and happy".  Inez was able to provide some funds for the group to buy a statue of Our Lady as they did not have one. "It is important to plant Mother Mary right in the slums so she can watch over them, and protect them from harm and danger." 

Looking at these little ones they look like little angels.  It seems so fitting that they attend the Church of St. Michael the Archangel.  With the Feast of the Archangels Monday, in a special we pray that the Archangels and all the choirs of angels will protect this group and all our Children's Rosary groups and members.  We were blessed today to have another Children's Rosary group meet in a Parish named after St. Michael the Archangel.  This group is in Garden City, South Carolina USA.  Yet despite a great distance separating these children there is a unity in the beauty of children and the power of prayer. 

Thank you all who help to spread the Children's Rosary.  For more information about beginning a Children's Rosary group click HERE.

Where Do the Ripples of a Children's Rosary End?

Often I have thought of each Children's Rosary group as a small pebble being thrown into a still pond. The pebble itself is extremely tiny compared to the vast size of the pond and all the water.  Yet this tiny little stone is able to displace the water in all directions. It is hard to predict where it will end and truly such knowledge is known to God alone.  
With each new group that forms and with each meeting of these children a ripple of grace is released into our world.  Such grace shakes things up and brings the pond to a new "normal" once it has passed through it.  

It is a beautiful thought to think of so many ripples going out in all directions.  Though many of the groups are far away from each other it is wonderful to contemplate as the ripples meet each other and coalesce.  Ripples of prayers meeting prayers.  Yes this is the effect that will help to refresh our world.  For Our Lady of Fatima said, pray the Rosary daily to bring Peace and end wars.  How needed is Peace today.  

Over the next few days we have many Children's Rosary groups meeting.  Please consider joining the children in prayer.  The children always pray for those unifying prayers with them.

We also are in our final three days of our 9 days of prayer and fasting.  It has been incredible to see the flood of graces that have come this week.  It is never to late to join in even for the last few days.  Each sacrifice is so precious. To learn more click HERE.

New Children's Rosary at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish

Wonderful news!  A new Children's Rosary will be forming at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish in Shrub Oak, New York USA. Their first meeting will be Saturday October 4th. With all the intense prayers and fasting this week such news yesterday was a splendid gift.  There is a feeling that with each prayer that goes up Our Lady beautifully presents it to her Son.   Likewise such prayers enable more of her plans to unfold bringing more children to prayer and through this more grace.  So often we see an unwinding of that which is good.  To see a cycle running in the other direction brings a welling up of hope. 

While so many are increasing prayers and fasting this week we might also experience an increase in temptation to give up.  A feeling we are doing too much.  Yet St. Padre Pio spoke so beautifully about such testing.
  
"Don't let temptations frighten you, they are the trials of those souls who God wants to put to the test when he sees them strong enough to sustain the battle, weaving with their own hands the crown of Glory" -St. Padre Pio

Indeed such feeling are part of our journey of faith.  As St. Padre Pio tells us we should not be frightened.  I am reminded of the beautiful Psalm of the Good Shepherd,
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me (Psalm 23:4).

We may feel disappointed how we handle the test but it gives Our Lord such glory to trust in Him and His Mercy and not look away.  We may stumble and this is to be expected.  But together let us not give up.  Our Lady is doing so much.  Let us keep humbly placing more in her hands to present to her Son.

Thank you all so much.

For those who have yet to join in our 9 days of prayer and fasting it is never too late to begin. We still have 4 more days. Click HERE to Learn more.

"Oh, how precious time is!"

Today the Church honors St. Padre Pio.  It is also the first day of Autumn and the nights have turned cold here in Connecticut USA.  The last of our grapes are coming in from our garden and the flowers are starting to wane.  The first bright colors of fall are seen in the big maple trees and the children are saying goodbye to summer for another year. Indeed time is truly speeding along.  My husband and I were marvelling at this very fact the other day.  Indeed many had told us this many time but we now see for ourselves our children are growing up so fast.  The more I appreciate the passing of time the more urgency there is to find that extra little gift to send up to heaven.  

The Children's Rosary is now in the middle of our week of prayer and fasting.  It is our prayer and hope that during these last remaining 5 days many more people will join along with us. To read more about our week of prayer and fasting click HERE.

 St. Padre Pio said it well:

"Oh, how precious time is!  Blessed are those who know how to make good use of it.  Oh, if only all could understand how precious time is, undoubtedly everyone would do his best to spend it in a praiseworthy manner!"

A Sacrifice of Living Love

Dear Friends,

Our prayer and fasting week has begun and there was a little excerpt from the Diary of St. Faustina that accompanied an email from the Marians yesterday.  It seemed to fit so beautifully with our fasting efforts I wanted to share it with you.

"My daughter, I want to instruct you on how you are to rescue souls through sacrifice and prayer. You will save more souls through prayer and suffering than will a missionary through his teachings and sermons alone. I want to see you as a sacrifice of living love, which only then carries weight before Me "(Diary, 1767).

The Lord has such a way of timing things that appear in our lives so as to help nudge us along our path.  This little piece of the diary so beautifully reassures us we are on the right track. No prayer or sacrifice will be overlooked.  All has merit and yields fruit.

Please if you were not able to begin with us this yesterday it is never to late to join with even the smallest sacrifice.  While some are able to fast on unlimited bread and water others may not be able to and this is okay.  There are no absolute rules only an invitation to bring all you can give with love to Our Lord.  

The prayers are surely needed.  Today an email arrived from a mother in response to the invitation to begin this week of prayer and fasting "I am so much relying on your prayers during this time of darkness".  Indeed so many are in need of these prayers.  We have many individuals trying to begin Children's Rosary  groups and such prayers would surely help them.  There are efforts to begin groups in Queensland Australia, Union Kentucky, Trumbull Connecticut, North Adams Massachusetts, Oneonta New York, Wildwood Pennsylvania to name a few.  New groups have recently met this month in Meru Kenya, Edmeston New York, Sharon Massachusetts and Bridgeport Connecticut (with the Missionaries of Charity). We have even more scheduled to meet in the coming months in such places as Negaunee Michigan and Kennett Square Pennsylvania.

For those who might think it is too late to join us for the week of prayer and fasting, the Gospel today (Matthew 20:1-16) was a wonderful reminder of how beautiful and fruitful it is for many to join in along the way.  For those who were called even at 5PM to work in the vineyard for only 1 hour of labor, were paid the same as those that began early in the morning.  We were also reminded today in the first reading(Isaiah 55:8) our ways are not God's ways, so please do not hesitate to join us with this prayer and fasting effort.

Thank you all!

Reflections from the journey the children took one year ago today.

Praying for Peace in Our Hearts, Our Families, and Our World

Photo taken at a Children's Rosary with the Missionaries of Charity

Once I heard a priest say during a homily that if one person in your family loses their peace then the peace of the family is shaken.  Indeed it would seem that from so many directions our inner peace and that of our families is under attack.  Let us not speak at all of the turmoil all around us in our world.  Yet Our Mother comes to us with hands outstretched to help us.  She is calling us to prayer and in particular the Rosary.  Recently our own Children's Rosary group was gathered.  We had only two of my children and one beautiful family originally from France.  The little girl Charlotte who had just turned 5 knelt down with the other children to begin the Children's Rosary.  With only 4 children we asked Charlotte's mother if she was able to lead too.  Her mom nodded that indeed she could.  First Charlotte's ten year old brother led. A boy who only 1 year earlier was so shy about getting up now seemed at home with his rosaries and assuming role as leader. 

As Paul led us in the Rosary I looked at little Charlotte with a little white coat and patent leather white shoes a bit scratched which suggested that although she was very shy she was no stranger to some wonderful outdoor play.  As little Charlotte knelt all the way up with her head bowed and fingers carefully counting the beads I noticed something.  Her little leg began to shake a bit yet she did not kneel down.  She was doing all she could to kneel up.  What a beautiful little heart to give so much to her Heavenly Mother and her beloved Son.  Such little prayers from such a little soul but undoubtedly an immense affect on the flow of grace to her own family, the Children's Rosary and the world.  For we do not want to hold onto any of these graces rather we would like to be like a sieve, that as graces flow down, they spill out to all around us.  Such prayers can help to bring Peace.  For Our Lady of Fatima told the children, pray the Rosary to bring Peace.  Oh how dearly we need peace today.  

Another touching story I heard yesterday from another Children's Rosary group leader.  She was at her Children's Rosary with her grandson this past weekend.  He is just 4 years old.  Yet he asked his grandmother if he could be one of the leaders this month.  After the Children's Rosary they stayed to pray before the Blessed Sacrament *.  It was then that she heard a noise from her grandson and thought he had sneezed so she blessed him.  He then said Grammy I didn't sneeze I was blowing kisses to Jesus. 

What must our loving Lord think when a little one just four has come before Him in the Blessed Sacrament prayed the Rosary with his Heavenly Mother and now with a full heart of love blows Him kisses.  Oh it is very good for all of us to be sure.  So much love and mercy must be released from such a pure act of love.  

*This group has chosen to hold their Children's Rosary in front of the Blessed Sacrament.

Over the next few days we have many Children's Rosary groups meeting.  Please consider joining the children in prayer.  The children always pray for those unifying prayers with them.

Hear What Individuals are Saying about the Children's Rosary CDs

The following is feedback we have been receiving about the new Children's Rosary CDs which we recently released.  While we have always been hesitant to write self-promoting things there is a feeling we should also not hide the true gift Our Lady gave us.  In a way anything good that is said is not a reflection on those involved with making the CD, as such a CD could not have been made by the inexperienced crowd that indeed was part of it. What we can assure you is that a tremendous number of prayers went up that all would be as Our Lady envisioned and to say the final CDs are perfect is to say indeed the children's prayers were answered. The CDs are a gift we pray that many will enjoy and share with those dear to them. 

"Listening to the Rosary CDs blessed me in many ways and fortified me spiritually.  Can there be a more encouraging and beautiful sound than children in prayer."

"It is God that we are talking to and the prayers go right up to Him"

"It was Angelic.  When the members of my Children's Rosary group heard the voices of the children singing, it was music to our souls.  We loved it!
