Children's Rosary at the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception turns Nine!

 

The Children's Rosary at the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception in Waterbury, Connecticut USA began meeting in December of 2012. They meet monthly on the first Saturday of the month at 3:30 p.m. It is beautiful to see their witness of faithfulness. The picture above was taken on Saturday February 5, 2022. Mother Teresa was fond of saying, "God has called us not be successful, but to be faithful." This group has been faithful. They continue to meet monthly and many graces have been felt over the years. Often we show pictures of new groups forming but we would also like to feature the groups that formed years ago and continue to meet. We thank the group leaders who have helped lead this group and the children who have attended.

Mass Offered Today for the Members of the Children's Rosary

Children's Rosary at Our Lady of Fatima Parish
Hartford, CT
One of the Children's Rosary group leaders who runs a Children's Rosary in a parish named after Our Lady of Fatima has given a wonderful gift to the Children's Rosary.  On the 13th of every month she has a Mass said for members of the Children's Rosary.

Ninety seven years ago today Our Lady appeared to the three little children in Fatima, Portugal.  She asked the children, as she had done on her preceding visits, to pray the Rosary daily.  Another one of the requests of Our Lady of Fatima was monthly confession on the first Saturday.  

Our Lady promised the children that on the 13th of October she would show them a sign.  She was true to her promise and the children along with approximately 75,000 saw a magnificent site with the sun "dancing" in the sky.
