Divine Mercy Sunday 2019

Dear Friends,
Today we had a special Divine Mercy Event at St. Thomas the Apostle Parish in West Hartford, Connecticut USA. This is the parish where the Children's Rosary first began. The organizers of the Divine Mercy Event invited the Children's Rosary to lead the Rosary.

One of the intentions that was mentioned aloud before beginning the Rosary was for all the members of the Children's Rosary. A first class relic of St. Faustina was present for the Event. While touching the relic in a special way I prayed for the members of the Children's Rosary. Please know you were remembered today in prayer. One of the very special blessings of the day was the grace of having the children lead the prayers in front of the Blessed Sacrament.

For those of you who may not be aware we have a beautiful Chaplet of Divine Mercy recorded by members of the Children's Rosary. It is moving. Click HERE to listen and pray along with it. 

Thank you all and may you have a blessed Divine Mercy Sunday.

Your Friend in Christ,
Blythe

Children's Rosary 7 Year Anniversary Celebration

Today we celebrated the Children's Rosary Anniversary. The Children's Rosary has been meeting monthly uninterrupted for 7 years at St. Thomas the Apostle Parish in West Hartford, Connecticut USA. This is the home of the Children's Rosary. From the beginning, we have met on the second Sunday of the month. This year the second Sunday of the month fell on Divine Mercy celebration. 

In keeping with our tradition the children met at 9:45 AM in our lower chapel. This week we had a wonderful surprise. The missionary image of Our Lady of Guadalupe was in the region and we were asked if we would like to have Our Lady at the Children's Rosary. We were thrilled to accept such a beautiful offer. 

This morning we had many children attend who have been involved with the Children's Rosary from the early years. 


One women in attendance shared that she felt her heart fill with love as she entered the chapel for the Children's Rosary. We felt great joy today. We carried all the members of the Children's Rosary with us in prayer. We also prayed for all of those unifying in prayer with us. We began the meeting with a Re-Consecration of the Children's Rosary to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Immaculate Heart of Mary. We continue to put this individual group as well as the Children's Rosary prayer group movement as a whole under the protection and guidance of Christ and His Mother. 


A handmade card was also made for Our Lady which we placed before the children praying. Within the card listed the Masses we have requested both for the fulfillment of Our Lady's plans for the Children's Rosary and also the Masses in thanksgiving. 

At the conclusion of the prayers the children sang our theme song "Rosary Children". One of the individuals who brought the Missionary Image of Our Lady of Guadalupe had brought a first class relic of St. Therese the Little Flower to the meeting. This was another sweet surprise for the children. We also have a first class relic of St. Faustina that is kept in the Chapel. Both relics were made available for veneration at the end of the Rosary (veneration of the relics shown below). 


Following the Children's Rosary, there was Mass and then a special Bruch to celebrate the anniversary. During the brunch, there was an opportunity to learn how to make a Rosary. We are grateful for all those whole helped today. Some brought food and some helped in teaching others how to make Rosaries. 
Everyone had their fill and yet there was more left over. The extra was packed up and brought to Immaculate Conception Shelter where more people could enjoy the abundance. God is good all the time.


One of the little things we did to make the day special was to have a Cupcake Rosary. The children had helped to make the cupcakes. Asher decided with each cupcake he frosted he would say a Hail Mary for Our Lady's Intentions. 


He was very particular that the prayers be started only once he began frosting the cupcake. Alina and I followed his lead and accompanied his prayers. Each cupcake had a Hail Mary said. Each time he picked up a new cupcake we also chose a different saint and asked that saint to pray for us. This took the project of frosting the cupcakes and infused it with prayer. Excitement grew as we waited to see who each person would choose to ask for their prayers. There was only one saint mentioned per cupcake. We took turns so there was some patience needed as one would think of a perfect saint to mention but we had to wait our turn to say the saint. The saints have become friends and so it comes to mind often to ask for their help. Our Lady in her school of the Rosary has opened the children's hearts to the saints and learning about them and asking for their help. Today as people took their cupcakes we shared how each cupcake represented prayers that had been said. This made it extra special. To the little children that came to take the cupcakes we also asked them if they would say a Hail Mary for Our Lady before they ate the cupcake. Some stopped in the line of food and said the prayer even before finding a seat. Indeed prayers were woven throughout the day. But this was not burdensome. There was a joy mingled with everything. 

One last thing to share. In anticipation of the anniversary we painted a platter with the Children's Rosary logo. This was hand painted and then fired in a kiln. It was a gift to Our Lady. 


We thank all those who help with the Children's Rosary in so many different ways. The Children's Rosary represents a tapestry of people and children from around the world. When we give anything to Our Lady it comes from all of us. 

On this Feast of Divine Mercy may God shower graces and blessings on all the members of the Children's Rosary and your dear families. 

God Bless You!

A Day of Incredible Blessings at the National Shrine of Divine Mercy

Dear Friends,

In honor of the 100th Anniversary of the Apparitions of Fatima the Children's Rosary was invited to Divine Mercy Sunday at the National Shrine of Divine Mercy in Stockbridge Massachusetts USA.  It has been a prayer for years that such an invitation might come. Indeed Our Lord gives His gifts in His time and He always gives them in such a way that the gift has extra special meaning.  


So it was with this gift. The first invitation was for the children to come and lead a Children's Rosary before the many pilgrims that visit the Shrine on Divine Mercy Sunday.  The weather as the day approached was predicted to be rather cold (in the 50s F) and rainy.  All I could imagine were the children out in the rain and mud. Taking all concerns to Our Heavenly Mother, I asked her to help the children on that day. So it was with much excitement that I received news from a friend on Thursday evening that the weather predictions had changed! No longer was Sunday going to rain. Instead, it was predicted to be high 60s and sunny. Praise Jesus! The umbrellas you see in the picture are not to protect people from rain but the sun. But being in the Berkshire hills, there was always a breeze blowing so the weather was an absolute 10!  A few weeks before Divine Mercy Sunday another invitation came. This was an invitation that I might speak for 20 minutes to the pilgrims about the Children's Rosary. This too was a precious gift for not only would so many see and pray with the children but they might also hear about how the children's prayers are spreading across the globe and also ways that they might be involved as well.  With such an opportunity to reach so many one might have expected a long time in crafting a speech. Well my common sense would have said, yes, this is what one does when one is speaking to many people (well in this case around 20,000).  But my heart said otherwise. Instead I prayed. My preparation was prayer. So I humbly share the talk that resulted which was posted by the Marians on their site: HERE.

In addition to the children leading the Children's Rosary we had one other exciting piece planned. The children were to sing our theme song "Rosary Children" written by Fr. Lawrence Tucker.  Providentially, Jack Yourous was able to travel and be with us that day and lead the children in the song while playing the guitar. 

Indeed the day was perfect. The weather was sunny with absolute clear skies. To see the skies and the people covering the hills in prayer during the Mass that followed the Children's Rosary was incredibly emotional. For my heart was overcome with gratitude for all that had been given. 

The Rosary that was prayed on Divine Mercy Sunday was offered up for the intention of Peace...very fitting for the approaching 100 Anniversary of Fatima. The children did a beautiful job reverently leading the Children's Rosary. We had approximately 15 children all gathered kneeling before the altar. They took turns leading the prayers and placing roses before Our Blessed Mother. Our youngest leader was just 6 years old. We also had one child lead a decade in Spanish.  
The song "Rosary Children" carried out over the hills at the end of the Rosary. The last lines of the song sung over and over  "Live in His Love, Live in His Love, Live in His Love." It seemed many hearts were touched that day for as we left the altar there were many people approaching the children and myself asking for information about the Children's Rosary. We are praying very hard now and ask for your prayers that the seeds sown that day will bear bountiful fruit for Our Lord and Our Lady.

We would like to extend a special thank you to Fr. Gramlich the Rector and the Marians for the invitation to come to Divine Mercy Sunday. We would like to thank all those who unified prayers with us that day. Many prayers were said for all of the members of the Children's Rosary. 

Lastly we would like to thank God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit as well as Our Blessed Mother. We felt many blessing that day and none could have happened without their help.

Your Friend in Christ,
Blythe

Mercy In Action: The Children Visit a Leper Community on Divine Mercy Sunday

On Divine Mercy Sunday a group children who are part of the Children's Rosary set out to visit the St. Francis of Assisi Community.  This is a group of approximately 86 Lepers living 30 minutes outside of Bien Hoa City Vietnam.  

They brought soap for each person and a bag of food for each person.  The children felt that on Divine Mercy Sunday this is where they wanted to be...reaching out to those marginalized and alone. 
The children not only brought nourishment for the body they also led a Rosary with them.

The Children Offer Up Their Prayers on Divine Mercy Sunday

The Children's Rosary of St. Thomas Syro Malabar Mission in Harford, Connecticut met on Divine Mercy Sunday.  They met at St. Helena Church in West Hartford.  More than forty children knelt in prayer of the Rosary.  Both young and older children took turns leading from the podium.  It is so nice to see how eager the children are to help lead the prayers.  This week the children seemed to be trying extra hard with their prayers.  One little boy who sometimes finds himself a bit distracted with his little sister tried so hard this week.  He told me before the Rosary that he would try and kneel the whole time without talking.  I looked over at him several times.  Each time he was kneeling and staying focused on his prayers.  I smiled at him nodding in thanksgiving for his efforts.  He smiled at me in return.  This little boy may be five years old and his sister just three. Yet they are growing each meeting.  They are very eager to lead and are now doing better when others are leading, too. 

The altar this week was magnificently decorated with flowers to celebrate the Easter Season. A statue of Our Lady was placed before the children.  The sun shown down illuminating the place so beautifully where Our Lady was placed.

Please know that the children were praying lifting up in prayer all the members of the Children's Rosary and all who help the Children's Rosary.

Celebrating Divine Mercy Sunday

For over 10 years a Divine Mercy Event has been held at St. Thomas the Apostle Church in West Hartford, Connecticut USA.  For the past 5 years the Children Rosary has been asked to help. 


The children gathered together before the Event to ready their voices and practise singing our theme song Rosary Children.  Jeff Batter who helped in recording our theme song was there to accompany them.  This was a real treat for the kids!  

The Event opened with a procession of the Knights of Columbus Honor Guard and members of the Children's Rosary. The image of Divine Mercy was placed at the front of the Church and Fr. Nadolny blessed the Image. The children then held a Children's Rosary before the Blessed Sacrament. 

The children each took turns going to the podium to lead the prayers of the Rosary.  Charlotte and Massie, just 6 years old, melted hearts with their sweet angelic voices.  


Charlotte and Massie leading a decade of the Rosary
We were also blessed to have the Official Missionary Image of Our Lady of Guadalupe.  Great sacrifice had been made to bring her... with one mother driving from Steubenville, Ohio to Connecticut.  This is over an 8 hour drive.  Ellen was not initially the one who was scheduled to bring Our Lady but due to illness Ellen stepped forward.  She drove into the night and through a snow storm to have Our Lady of Guadalupe there for Divine Mercy Sunday. These incredible sacrifices surely brought great love and extra blessings on the day. 
At the end of each decade of the Rosary a child placed a rose at the feet of Our Blessed Mother.  

Three priests were also available for Confession throughout the afternoon.  During some quiet time in prayer before the Blessed Sacrament Kostin, one of the members of the Children's Rosary, helped to guide Sean to the confessional.  Sean is blind but has attended many Children's Rosary group meetings at our Parish.  He is in his 70s but says he likes to attend to pray for his own grandchildren that live far away.  Sean always feels comfortable asking Kostin for hep.  There is something easier about asking a child for help.  It is always beautiful to see the two of them walking together.  A truly beautiful sight on Divine Mercy Sunday.  Many might have seen Kostin and Sean in our theme song video Rosary Children.  

Special thanks to Sandy Shields and Scott Scaria who plan this yearly Divine Mercy Event and for inviting the Children's Rosary to participate.  We would also like to thank Ellen Puorro and Patty Brady who brought the Image of Our Lady of Guadalupe and were present throughout Divine Mercy Sunday.

Reflections from Divine Mercy Sunday

Children's Rosary at St. Thomas the Apostle in
West Hartford Connecticut USA
Divine Mercy Sunday was full of incredible blessings.  We began the day with Mass and a quiet Rosary with my children in the chapel unifying with a Children's Rosary group that was meeting in another town in Connecticut.  As it would turn out, the leader of the group we were unifying prayers with had fallen very sick and was suffering from a stomach flu and could not make it to her Church.  She would later write that she was disappointed that because of her illness her group could not meet.  Yet, Our Lord had by Divine Providence arranged that children would be praying at the exact time of her meeting so children's prayers were indeed still rising to heaven.  

This was the first of many blessings that day.  Another wonderful gift we had on Divine Mercy Sunday was the presence of the Missionary Image of Our Lady of Guadalupe.  The prior night she had arrived through the hands of children.  Yes indeed another Children's Rosary group had made a special trip to bring Our Lady so we might have her at both our Children's Rosary in the morning and in the afternoon.  The afternoon Rosary was for a special Divine Mercy event.  Our Lady came with something else.  We were presented with a surprise: a second class relic of St. John Paul II.  As we held the piece of clothing which St. John Paul II had worn during his life, we were overcome with the beauty of such a gift on the eve of Divine Mercy Sunday, a day Pope John Paul II had instituted within the Church.  Indeed there was a feeling both St. John Paul II and Our Lady were smiling down on the children and pointing to the importance of the Feast to follow the next day.

As a small group of children arrived to begin our morning Children's Rosary on Divine Mercy Sunday they were overcome by the beauty of Our Lady.  They all marveled at all the detail of her dress and the softness of her face.  As the children prayed the Rosary in front of the Divine Mercy image, at the end of each decade they went and placed a rose at Our Lady's feet.  Many of these children would return in the afternoon for a larger Divine Mercy Event where again the children would hold a Children's Rosary.  During the afternoon event the children were able to be graced to kneel before the Blessed Sacrament in prayer.  More children came and we were able to close the Rosary by singing our theme song Rosary Children accompanied by Jeff Batter who was involved in the recording of the song for our CD.  To hear the children singing was so moving.  Looking out one could see smiling eyes and joy.  Indeed grace was flowing and hearts were full of love.  There are no pictures of the afternoon Rosary but in many ways I enjoy the knowledge that no one was distracted during that time in prayer.  We were all enjoying each moment.  
Children participating in Procession at Divine Mercy Event
As the day came to a close around 4PM we emerged to a glorious day with sun and warmth.  As many Children's Rosary groups met on Divine Mercy Sunday this is only a humble reflection of one of many experiences of our groups that day.

Divine Mercy Sunday

Tomorrow is Divine Mercy Sunday.  The Children's Rosary has been invited to participate in an annual Divine Mercy event at St. Thomas the Apostle Church in West Hartford, Connecticut USA.

This is something that the children have participated in the past several years and it has been a tremendous blessing.  The event will begin at 2PM ET with a procession of the Divine Mercy Image led by the Knights of Columbus and the Children's Rosary.  One of the priests present will expose the Blessed Sacrament followed by a Children's Rosary.  The children will conclude the Rosary by singing our theme song Rosary Children.  Jeff Batter who helped with the official recording of this song for our CD will be present and accompanying the children.  The children will be leading the Rosary between 2 and 2:30 PM for those who would like to unify prayers with them.  The children always pray for those unifying with them in prayer.


Confessions will be available between 2-4PM.  Cheryl and Jeff Batter will also sing the Divine Mercy Chaplet which is incredibly moving.  There will be an opportunity to venerate a first class relic of St. Faustina.

We also have a wonderful blessing: the Official Missionary Image of Our Lady of Guadalupe will also be present.  This is an exact replica of Our Lady's Tilma given to St. Juan Diego.  The Missionary image has been blessed by the Rector of the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico.  

One last beautiful blessing.  The Children's Rosary group leader from St. Bernard's Parish in Mount Lebanon, Pennsylvania requested a Mass for the Children's Rosary family to be celebrated on Divine Mercy Sunday.  This is in addition to the three Masses that will be said tomorrow for the fulfillment of Our Lady's plans for the Children's Rosary as part of our Anniversary Novena of Masses.

"I sought you out and now you come to me"


These were the last audible words of Pope John Paul II on hearing tens of thousands of young people singing in St. Peter's Square as he lay in his deathbed.  It was Friday April 1 2005, the eve of Divine Mercy Sunday when he uttered, "I sought you out and now you come to me. Thank you."  Indeed he did seek out children and young people throughout his Papacy.  As one of the young people who traveled to Denver for World Youth Day in 1993, I can attest to this.  His beautiful faith and trust in the Blessed Virgin Mary also was a beautiful pillar of his Papacy as well.  Tomorrow as we celebrate Divine Mercy Sunday and also his Canonization we have many Children's Rosary groups meeting.  I hope this will be a joy to him to see children gathering on a Feast he helped to establish praying the Rosary which was so dear to Him.  

The powerful intercession of Pope John Paul II has been ever present within the Children's Rosary. The Children’s Rosary book was written in large part on the Feast of Pope John Paul II and the book is dedicated to the Holy Trinity, Our Blessed Mother and in gratitude for the intercession of Pope John Paul II. 

Pope John Paul II in a special way we thank you and we ask for your prayers and blessing for all the members of the Children's Rosary and the prayer movement itself that we may bring a great many souls especially young people to Our Lord. Amen.

Divine Mercy Sunday Event

Dear Friends,

Divine Mercy Sunday is tomorrow.  There will be a Divine Mercy Event at St. Thomas the Apostle in West Hartford, Connecticut USA from 2-4PM ET.  The Children's Rosary has been invited to lead a Rosary at the Event.  There will be a procession led by one of the priests attending with the Image of Divine Mercy.  Members of the Knights of Columbus will follow and then members of the Children's Rosary will also be invited to participate in the procession.  The image of Divine Mercy will be blessed.  The Blessed Sacrament will then be exposed for Adoration during the event.  There will be a short reflection for approximately 10 minutes to be given by one of the priests on the topic of Divine Mercy.  The children will then be invited to lead the Rosary followed by the children joining in the song "Rosary Children" composed for the Children's Rosary prayer group movement.  Jeff Batter who recorded the instrumentals for the song and the male vocals will be there to help lead the children. 

Divine Mercy Sunday 2011
Following the Rosary there will be various prayers and also the Divine Mercy Chaplet sung by Cheryl and Jeff Batter who are members of the Children's Rosary.  At the conclusion of the prayer event individuals can be blessed by a priest with a first Class relic of St. Faustina.  Confessions will also be available with three priests beginning shortly after 2 and extending until 4PM.  

All are invited to attend the whole or a portion of the planned afternoon(there is no fee associated with the event).  Mass will not be part of the prayer event but there is a Mass at 5PM at St. Thomas for anyone interested in staying to attend.  For those of you living a distance away please consider unifying prayers with the children.  The estimated time to begin the Rosary is 2:30PM ET.  We will be praying for you all.  Scott Scaria who helped plan this event is leading a pilgrimage to Rome for Divine Mercy Sunday and has brought our intention list which includes all the members of the Children's Rosary and all who help the Children's Rosary.  Scott has been a wonderful member of the Children's Rosary.  It is such a grace that he will be attending the Canonization of Pope John Paul II and Pope John XXIII and has offered to remember us in his prayers there as well.  He has humbly asked for all of our prayers as he leads two buses of pilgrims amongst 5 million other visitors.

Those children able to attend tomorrow's Divine Mercy Event at St. Thomas should arrive at 1:30 PM ET to go over the details and run through the song.  

One last beautiful blessing.  The Children's Rosary group leader from St. Bernard's Parish in Mount Lebanon, Pennsylvania has requested a Mass be offered for the Children's Rosary and all their families on Divine Mercy Sunday. 

Thank you and may you all have a Blessed Divine Mercy Sunday.

Your Friend in Christ,
Blythe

Reflections From Divine Mercy Sunday

Just over a week ago we celebrated Divine Mercy Sunday.  That weekend we had 6 Children's Rosary groups which met between Friday and Sunday.  The first meeting of the Children's Rosary at St. Joseph Church in Adrian, Michigan was a huge success with 12 children who attended.  These children knelt in front of the Blessed Sacrament and together prayed the Rosary.  Sara who organized this new group said their were tears in her eyes seeing all the children praying together including her own little children.  She couldn't believe how still the children stayed during their prayers and their reverence.

The Children's Rosary in Stuebenville, Ohio also met that Friday with many families attending.  Several of the children are pictured here leading the other children and families in one of the decades of the Rosary at St. Peter's Church.

The Children's Rosary in Naples, Florida which met on the Saturday before Divine Mercy Sunday shared that a new family joined them.  This new family had three daughters all under 5 years of age.  They felt particularly blessed to help this new family who had never prayed the rosary before that morning.

The Children's Rosary in Waterbury, CT met Saturday afternoon for a beautiful Rosary at the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception.

On Divine Mercy Sunday two Children's Rosary groups met one in Thomaston, CT and one in West Hartford, CT USA. 

The group in West Hartford was invited to lead a Children's Rosary at a special Divine Mercy Celebration which drew several hundred people.  The Rosary was held during Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament.
