Children’s Rosary at the CELEBRATE Festival, Worth School (15–19 August 2026) We received this lovely note from Children's Rosary group leader Sinead Peacock:
This year we were delighted to bring the Children’s Rosary to the CELEBRATE Festival at Worth School in Sussex. The five‑day gathering was full of joy, prayer, and fellowship, with the theme “Let There Be Light” inspiring everyone who attended.
Our stall quickly became a lively meeting place. From Sunday through Wednesday—thanks to securing a second table—I was able to welcome families throughout the day. Word soon spread that we had balloons, and before long children were flocking over with bright smiles. Each visit became a beautiful opportunity to share the Children’s Rosary: offering prayer cards, miraculous medals, rosary beads, leaflets, and of course a Children’s Rosary balloon.
Many wonderful conversations unfolded with parents, grandparents, catechists, teachers and young people who were eager to learn more about the prayer groups. It was a blessing to witness such openness and enthusiasm.
We have already booked to return next year, and we hope to explore a little fundraising with our parish so we can secure a full table again. Thank you to Catherine for the Children's Rosary resources (especially the balloons!) and to Kevin and all the Catenians who generously supplied the rosary beads and prayer cards for our family, parish and school packs, and to everyone who stopped by—your encouragement truly lit up our days.
