Incorrupt Heart of St. Jean Vianney

Today we were able to venerate the incorrupt heart of the Cure of Ars. This was part of a Major Relic pilgrimage sponsored by the Knights of Columbus. A small group of members of the Children's Rosary were able to visit New Haven, Connecticut. This is approximately 1 hour from our home.

Our little trip began with Mass at St. Mary's Church in New Haven. There we were also able to pray at the tomb of Ven Fr. McGivney, the founder of the Knights of Columbus. I prayed for all the members of the Children's Rosary at the tomb of Ven. Fr McGivney. 


We then visited the Knights of Columbus Museum. Upon entering, we immediately went to see the relic of St. Jean Vianney. There was a large crowd when we arrived. We prayed there and then visited the Christmas in Poland Exhibit also at the Museum. 

When the crowds had left, we returned to pray before the relic. Our small group was composed of two families with three children total. We prayed together in a special way before the relic for all the members of the Children's Rosary and all who help the Children's Rosary. We also asked for the intercession of St. Jean Vianney to protect the purity of the children who are part of the Children's Rosary. St. Vianney was a champion of protecting purity and we implored his help in this regard. We took you all with us today. You were in our prayers.

It was a special blessing to be able to visit this Major relic tour. It was the kindness of another Children's Rosary group leader who offered to drive which allowed us the grace to attend. A special thank you to her. With my own joint disability, traveling even locally is often a challenge as I do not drive. Yet, God is so good that He sends the kindest of people to help us.

The heart relic of St. Jean Vianney will visit cathedrals, churches, chapels and seminaries, from November 2018 to early June 2019. 
God bless you all.

Materials leave for Emmaus Catholic Mission Today!

Today a package was sent out to Emmaus Catholic Mission in Hola, Kenya. We received word from Fr. Nasamaka that he hopes to initiate a Children's Rosary there during the first weekend in Advent. He hopes to begin groups at St. Joseph Primary School and the Sacred Heart of Jesus Parish in Emmaus. As Christmas approaches, it is exciting to imagine bringing these new Children's Rosary groups to the Baby Jesus.

We have a list of individuals in various parts of the world who want to begin groups but need materials. If you would like to sponsor a package many children would be very grateful.

Donations can be made electronically HERE.
Checks can also be made out to Children's Rosary and sent to:

Thank you for your generosity and kindness.

First Snowfall This Year

This evening around 5 PM the snow began to fall. It has intensified and now all the roads have a layer of snow covering them. It is always particularly exciting to see the first snow each season. 

My kids took some pictures of our street and also looking up towards the sky. There is something majestic about a new layer of fresh snow covering everything. Some of the children who are part of the Children's Rosary never get to experience snow since they live in warm climates such as regions of Africa. We love to share these pictures as it is a witness of the beauty of God's creation and may bring smiles to some little ones' faces. 

Before the snow began, we were able to send out several boxes. One of the boxes went to Uruguay where there is interest in spreading the Children's Rosary in the city of Montevideo. Please keep these efforts in your prayers as many are trying to initiate groups in their parishes and schools.

EWTN Radio Conference 2018

Last week we attended the EWTN Radio Conference in Birmingham, Alabama. We had a Children's Rosary Booth at the Conference. Our purpose for attending was to make available free to radio stations programming the Children's Rosary has produced. 

It is our hope that through the soft, sweet, innocent voices of children that many hearts may be touched all for the glory of God.

If you have a local Catholic Radio station consider reaching out to them. Invite them to air our Children's Rosary. 
We have various free programming available to stations:
*Children's Rosary (Joyful, Sorrowful, Luminous and Glorious Mysteries) 
* Four different Litanies
*Short and Long Chaplet of Divine Mercy recorded by members of the Children's Rosary. 
* Our most recent addition that we released at the radio conference is our new Spanish Children's Rosary.

It gives us great joy to make these recordings available to stations. Each airing provides an avenue for the children to evangelize.  Through each child that is part of the Children's Rosary they add their prayers to this movement. The prayers of so many children call down grace that brings a multitude of fruits in many hearts even the ones that are the most hardened.

If you would like more information about airing the Children's Rosary on a radio station please contact Blythe at blythe@childrensrosary.org
The Children's Rosary can be heard each day on EWTN Radio Classics streaming HERE at 4:30 PM ET.

God bless you all.

Visit to the Shrine of the Most Blessed Sacrament in Alabama USA

This week we were in Alabama and visited the Shrine of the Most Blessed Sacrament on Wednesday. We were able to meet with the cloistered sisters. The picture above is of Asher and Mother Dolores. We invited the sisters to add their light to our View from Heaven map and unify in prayers with the children.

Please know that I prayed for all the members of the Children's Rosary and all who help the Children's Rosary during Mass and also at the tomb of Mother Angelica the foundress of EWTN.

Barrel Number Two Leaves Today!

Today a barrel containing 7,860 Rosaries left on the first part of its journey. The ultimate destination is Uganda!! The barrel also contains a 10 inch statue of St. John Paul II that was donated to the Children's Rosary as well as 50 Children's Rosary books. Fr. Richard picked up the barrel tonight just after 6PM. Before it went in his car, he blessed it.

Fr. Richard not only blessed the Rosaries but also conveyed a blessing on those who helped make the rosaries that were included in the container. Almost all of the rosaries which were sent were handmade. 

This barrel will join our previous barrel in a shipping container. The two barrels will travel together from the United States to Uganda - a trip that will take approximately 3 months. 
Our previous barrel contained 1,000 Children's Rosary books and 5,292 Rosaries.

Between the two barrels the total number of rosaries being sent to Uganda is
13,152  Rosaries!

These rosaries will help in initiating Children's Rosary groups in 30 schools in Uganda.

We are in need of donations to help cover the expense of shipping and also the printing cost for the books that have been sent. Donations can be made electronically HERE or mailed directly to Children's Rosary.

We thank all those who help with these efforts. May God bless you for your kindness.

Mass Offered on October 25th 2018 for Members of the Children's Rosary


A Mass was offered today for all the members of the Children's Rosary and all who help the Children's Rosary.  We continue to have a Mass said for the this intention on the 25th of each month. The Eucharist is such a powerful gift from Our Lord that when I wanted to extend thanksgiving to all of you I knew of no better way to express my gratitude.  May Our Lord's love be poured down on all of you through the powerful sacrifice of the Holy Mass.
