Children's Rosary Celebrates Third Birthday with a Candlelit Rosary

We received these lovely pictures from the meeting on February 23, 2025 which marked the third anniversary for this group located in Castledawson, Northern Ireland. After having attended the last Zoom meeting for group leaders in Ireland and UK, Lynn Gallagher took the inspiration from one of the groups which used candles to make a special anniversary candlelit Rosary. The group leader also shared that the children enjoyed homemade cupcakes after the Rosary was completed and that the children enjoyed running around outside.

Children's Rosary in Hamburg, Germany, Makes Homemade Votive Candle Holders for Lent

The Children's Rosary group leader in Hamburg, Germany, shared this note:
Last Saturday we had a short explanation of the Lenten time and prayed the Rosary together. Then we made wooden Candelabra, to emphasize prayer in the Lenten time. The wood came from an Abbey near Cologne, "Maria Wald".

It is always lovely to see the creativity and traditions of the different Children's Rosary groups.

2025 Divine Mercy Conference in Dublin, Ireland

 A special thank you to Catherine, Anne-Marie, Joan, Helena, Anne and also our young people Emma, Anna,Jessica and Isabella who helped at the Children's Rosary booth. Unfortunately other Children's Rosary volunteers that came to help were turned away as it was a sold out event. We very much appreciate their efforts to come and help.

In the photo above, Tracy and Siobhan from the Knocknacarra Children's Rosary stopped by the booth. Six hundred informational Children's Rosary flyers were handed out. One of the people who helped at the booth shared, It was a great weekend to unite so many leaders who may never have met before. We met those who had joined our Zoom information meetings recently and lots of new wonderful people from all over Ireland. Many people have said how they felt called to the Children’s Rosary and would love to start a group in their area.

There will be another event at Knock Shrine this weekend, and there will again be a Children's Rosary booth.

A Mass Was Offered on February 25, 2025 for All the Members of the Children's Rosary

A Mass was offered on February 25, 2025, for all the members of the Children's Rosary and all who help the Children's Rosary. We continue to have a Mass said for this intention on the twenty-fifth of each month. The Eucharist is such a powerful gift from Our Lord that when we wanted to extend thanksgiving to all of you, we knew of no better way to express gratitude. May Our Lord's love be poured down on all of you through the powerful sacrifice of the Holy Mass. 

A new Children's Rosary has formed at École Sainte-Marie, Mère de Dieu, a small private French-speaking Catholic school in Canada. The school is on the property of the Church shown above. 

Make a Lenten Journey Using the Book, A Soul Prepared through Suffering

Consider making a 40-day retreat on suffering. This book was granted an Imprimatur by Archbishop Leonard Blair on October 6, 2023. Bishop Oliver Doeme calls it a "Must Read." This book draws souls to a great simplicity of spirit often associated with St. Thérèse, the Little Flower, and St. John Vianney. This work distills complex theological concepts into something simple that even a person in the depths of suffering could understand. This journey is for those in the trenches of suffering and for those yet to be put to the test, for it prepares people to understand that suffering shared by a loving God works in ways nothing else can. As God is the director of each of our stories, you may see yourself reflected in this book and find it helps each time you go through it in a different way. Put in the time for this 40-day journey, and you will find you are different on the other side.
