Treasures in Heaven

"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, 
where moth and decay destroy, and thieves break in and steal.
But store up treasures in heaven,
where neither moth nor decay destroys, nor thieves break in and steal.
For where your treasure is,
there also will your heart be". (MT 6:19-21)

This is part of the beautiful Gospel from today's Mass.  

It brings such joy to see more and more children coming together in prayer.  Little groups sometimes with just a few children meeting faithfully in prayer of the Rosary as a Children's Rosary prayer group.

The picture above is a tiny little Children's Rosary.  It is run by a grandmother.  Two of her grandchildren attend.  They hold their Children's Rosary on the first Wednesday of the month at 6:15 PM in their Church Adoration chapel at St. Martin de Porres Parish in Jensen Beach, Florida.  This month they took a picture of their group outside as not to disturb those praying after their Rosary in the Adoration Chapel.  One can see the joy in the faces of these little ones.  Indeed they are tucking away great treasures in heaven from a very young age.  

We are very thankful to the many individuals that put so much prayer and love into their Children's Rosary groups.  Over the next week we will have many Children's Rosary groups meeting around the world.  Please consider joining them in prayer.  The children always pray for those unifying prayers with them.
