Today we celebrate the Feast of the Holy Face of Jesus. The Children's Rosary at St. Peter Claver in West Hartford, Connecticut, USA met at 4:00 p.m. in the Church. Five children attended. They each took turns leading a decade of the Rosary. Each child had at least one turn placing roses before the statue of Mary and image of the Holy Face of Jesus. One of the boys, from the very first meeting of the Children's Rosary at St. Peter Claver, has made it a practice to kiss the rose before he lays it before Our Blessed Mother. He continued this practice today. One of the other children also began to do this. It was a very tender example of love for Our Blessed Mother. We have included pictures from the meeting.
The Children's Rosary® is a prayer group movement that was begun out of love for Our Lady and Her Son. Jesus tells us "Truly, I say to you unless you turn and become like children you will never enter the Kingdom of Heaven" (Matthew 18:3). The Children's Rosary is an effort to begin in parishes rosary prayer groups composed of children and led by children. Through prayer of the Rosary Our Lady will guide our young people while at the same time sanctify families and Parishes.
