"When the Son of Man Comes Will He Find Faith on this Earth?"

Children's Rosary at St. Augustine Parish
Lagos, Nigeria
This quote was part of the Gospel reading this past Saturday.  It concludes the beautiful parable of the Godless Judge and the poor widow seeking a just decision.  

He said, "In a certain city there was a judge who neither feared God nor regarded man; and there was a widow in that city who kept coming to him and saying, `Vindicate me against my adversary.' For a while he refused; but afterward he said to himself, `Though I neither fear God nor regard man, yet because this widow bothers me, I will vindicate her, or she will wear me out by her continual coming.'" And the Lord said, "Hear what the unrighteous judge says. And will not God vindicate his elect, who cry to him day and night? Will he delay long over them? I tell you, he will vindicate them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of man comes, will he find faith on earth?" (Luke 18: 2-8)

It is said, "God made us without us, but he will not save us without us. " (St. Augustine)  Indeed Our Lord is thirsting for us to come to Him with complete faith and trust in Him.  He will not disappoint or turn a deaf ear as we are told in Scripture.  These little children who meet daily as a Children's Rosary in Nigeria are a beautiful witness of faithfulness to prayer.  They are our only Children's Rosary group that meets daily.  What a beautiful gift from our world.  All these prayers from these children are such a spring of grace.
As the Children's Rosary continues to spread it is wonderful to see so many children finding Our Lord in prayer and seeing that they can bring all their worries and troubles to Him and find love and tenderness waiting for them.   

Please consider joining the children in prayer.  The children always pray for those unifying prayers with them.
