We have been receiving pictures from the Children's Rosary in Pakistan. They have been continuing their annual tradition of participating in our Children's Rosary: "Patiently Waiting Campaign". The picture above is from the Children's Rosary in Kotli Raet Wail. This is an outpost of the main Parish St. Francis Xavier Parish in Gujranwala. There previously had been no Church in this small town. Through the children meeting weekly in their Children's Rosary group, the families of the town decided that a Church was now needed. So with the encouragement of the children, funds were locally raised in the town. Construction began and was completed this year. The Church was named after the Holy Spirit.
The Children's Rosary group leader helped in the construction of the Church and helped in the mural wall painting. The children continued to raise money this year to have a podium installed in the Church. It is visible in the photo above.
We share more pictures that were sent to us from Pakistan below. Different Children's Rosary groups have been making signs. We would also like to extend a humble invitation to those reading this post:
This Advent Place a Patiently Waiting Sign
in Your Window
Join the Children's Rosary by putting a sign in your window as a beautiful reminder of where our hearts can be found as we prepare ourselves for the coming of Christ. On Christmas replace the sign with one that reads: Christ is Born.
