Mass Offered for All the Members of the Children's Rosary on March 25, 2025

 

Happy Solemnity of the Annunciation of Our Lord. A Mass was offered on March 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.

Second Birthday of the Children's Rosary at Knock Shrine

The Children's Rosary group leader at Knock Shrine in Ireland shared, On the Feast of the Solemnity of St. Joseph, our Knock Shrine Children’s Rosary group celebrated its second anniversary with Eucharistic Adoration and the Rosary in the Apparition Chapel, facing the gable wall where the Holy Family appeared to a group of villagers in August 1879. Jesus appeared in the form of the Sacrificial Lamb on the altar, beneath the Cross, surrounded by angels.

What made it extra special was that Father Mark Quinn, a newly ordained priest, joined us for our Rosary and Benediction. He consecrated our group to Jesus and to Mary.

The sun shone brightly in Knock for this very special celebration, which was followed by pizza, cake, and fun in the Youth Centre.
We are very grateful to Father Mark and all priests as well as the staff of Knock Shrine for their loyal support over the last two years.
Our Lady of Knock, Queen of Ireland and of the Holy Rosary, thank you and pray for us.

Children's Rosary Helps with Eucharistic Procession in Athlone, Ireland

On the eve of the Feast of St. Patrick, a Eucharistic procession was held in Athlone, Ireland. Members of the Children's Rosary participated. 

Shalom World put together a lovely video highlighting the involvement of the Children's Rosary in the Procession. It includes the children spreading rose petals as they walked.

The National Catholic Register also reported on the procession.

Members carried a banner, and on the R/Shannon footbridge, members of the Children's Rosary led those in the procession in the Holy Rosary. Approximately 1,000 people attended the procession. 

This follows up the Eucharistic processions held in the Diocese of Derry on the feast of St. Brigid of Ireland. The Children's Rosary also led the Rosary at those events as well. 

A special thank you to all the members of the Children's Rosary who helped with this event!

A diagram of the procession route is shown below.

Children's Rosary Group in Grand Island, New York, Meets on the Feast of St. Joseph

We received a lovely email from the Children's Rosary group leader at St. Stephen's Church in Grand Island, New York. The note is included below.

    We had a great night on St. Joseph's Day with our second Children's Rosary event! We had 8 children (not including the family members), and we were able to welcome new members! The two boys were eager to join us, and they had attended the first night too. They came right up to the sign-in table full of enthusiasm! The younger boy informed us, "I want to be a holy man just like the men surrounding our Church!" We have statues of Saints surrounding the entire inside of our Church and that is what he was referring to. This is why we took a picture of the two young holy men before the statue of the Holy man St. Joseph on St. Joseph's Day!

    We started the evening with a prayer to St. Joseph, gave Blessed Miraculous Medals to the new children (we do that every gathering), offered petitions, and prayed the Rosary. Afterwards we gathered in our Hospitality Room for snacks, and they colored a picture of St. Joseph holding baby Jesus.

    There were so many blessings that I could go on and on. 

First Children's Rosary on Radio Maria Ireland

We are excited to share feedback from the first airing of the Children's Rosary on Radio Maria Ireland.

We had our first Children’s Rosary on Radio Maria on Saturday 15th March. We set up an altar and had a beautiful Children’s Rosary with a different child leading each mystery. We were able to include some singing and also for a rose to be brought o the feet of Our Lady as we asked fort he grace of each mystery.

We prayed the Glorious Mysteries as Radio Maria Ireland have five Rosaries each day, so we were in sequence with their Rosary on the day.

The Children’s Rosary have been invited to lead the lunchtime Rosary every Saturday from now on, with the exception of the second Saturday of each month.
