Reflections from the All Ireland Rosary Rally 2023

 We are happy to share some pictures from the All Ireland Rosary Rally held at Knock Shrine on June 3, 2023. Members of the Children's Rosary led the Rosary. The last decade was prayed in Irish. In the photo above members of the Children's Rosary and group leaders from various Children's Rosary groups across the country can be seen. Archbishop Eamon Martin also joined the children for the picture and Bishop Doeme of Nigeria, who was the Keynote speaker, can also be seen in the center of the picture.

To view a recording of the children leading the Rosary please see the LINK. The children begin praying at approximately 25:15 minutes into the recording. 

A photo of Bishop Doeme at the event is present above. We are in communication with Bishop Doeme about the introduction of the Children's Rosary within his Diocese of Maiduguri, Nigeria.

A special thank you to Catherine McGowan and all the Children's Rosary volunteers who helped to organize the involvement of the Children's Rosary during the event. A special thank you to Fr. Marius O'Reilly for kindly including the Children's Rosary in the events of the day.

An Anniversary Celebration in Hamburg, Germany

As today is the Feast of St Boniface, who is the patron saint of Germany, we thought it would be lovely to highlight the April celebration of one of the Children's Rosary groups in Hamburg Germany.


 

To celebrate their one year anniversary they met for a Children's Rosary and also planned some fellowship after the rosary.

They have now been meeting for over 1 year monthly. They had a lovely cake they made to celebrate the anniversary.
