First Meeting of the Children's Rosary at St. Elias Church in Baabda, Lebanon

A New Children's Rosary met for the first time on March 25, 2026 at St. Elias Church in Baabda, Lebanon. This is our second Children's Rosary group in Lebanon. Fr. Youssef Abi Zeid Consecrated the new group to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Immaculate Heart of Mary. 

Six children attended. Fr. Youssef relates this little story. I asked the first and only small child, what intention do you want us to write for you, because he still doesn't know how to write. "St Joseph" he answered. I told him don't you want to pray for mom and dad? He nodded affirmative. "Who else?" I asked. He answered again "St Joseph"!!! 

We are most excited to welcome this new Children's Rosary and we thank all those who helped to organize the formation of this new group.

New Children's Rosary in Beirut Meets on the Feast of the Presentation of Mary in the Temple

The Children's Rosary at St. Joseph Maronite Parish in Beirut, Lebanon held their second meeting on November 21. Fr. Youssef Abi Zeid Consecrated this new group to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Immaculate Heart of Mary. This is something we ask all new groups to do. It is not a Consecration of the individuals but rather of the group. In this way, each group is under the protection and guidance of Christ and His Mother.

Twenty children attended the meeting. They have shared pictures of the various children taking turns leading the prayers. We thank the children for coming together in prayer of the Rosary especially on the wonderful Feast of the Presentation of Mary.
