Vatican News Article Highlights Children's Rosary Visit to the Pope

While we were waiting for the Pope to arrive on Wednesday, a reporter from the L'Osservatore Romano/Vatican News approached Asher and asked if he could ask him some questions for an article in L'Osservatore Romano. He knew a good deal already about the Children's Rosary and Asher as he remarked that he researches who the Pope will be meeting. The conversation was highlighted in two articles listed below.

A translation of the portion of the article featuring the Children's Rosary is below:

“As a further witness to the prayer of the Rosary, from the United States Mrs. Blythe Kaufman, accompanied by her son Asher, a young seminarian of the Diocese of Hartford, presented to the Pope Children’s Rosary, the lay movement she founded 15 years ago, now present in 53 countries, which promotes moments of prayer for children in parishes, schools, and orphanages. At the end of the audience, they gave the Pope a book containing the testimonies of many children who live this experience, as well as of priests who host the initiative in their parishes.”
