Human Concerns
The Living Rosary is not a new devotion, but a
continuation of the Rosary preached by Saint
Dominic and announced by Our Blessed
Mother "The union of many souls raised in prayer
together creates a great force and inclines God to
clemency towards us." OLL has previously done this
and it proved to be a moving devotion. The plan is
to have it outside on FRIDAY, October 7th. The idea
is to have each person or family lead a rosary
prayer. All are welcome, but at least 61 are needed
to say one prayer of the rosary. So, it would be good
to gather around 5:30 to be able to start the
devotion at 6 PM. This devotion is beautiful and will
be long remembered by our church parishioners/
school families and especially by the children.
For more information and if you are planning to
attend, please contact Joan DuFour at
jdufour@ollrichva.org.
