One Million Rosaries

Rosaries Pledged:18,211
 

CAN WE COUNT YOU IN?

Will you be a part of the movement in the Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston to pray ONE MILLION ROSARIES FOR VOCATIONS between the Feast of the Assumption on August 15th to the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary on Oct. 7th?

It’s never been done here before but WITH YOUR HELP WE CAN MAKE IT HAPPEN.

“Behind and before every vocation is always the strong and intense prayer of someone: a grandmother, a grandfather, a mother, a father, a faith community…. Vocations are born in prayer and from prayer: and only through prayer can we persevere and bear fruit.” – Sister Martha Gomez, R.G.S., Delegate for Consecrated Life in the Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston.

CATHOLIC VOCATIONS include priesthood, religious life, marriage, and single life – callings to join Christ through our Baptism, serving God as we serve others.

ENTER YOUR PLEDGE for the number of rosaries you will pray for vocations.

SHARE this endeavor with their family, friends, and organizations outside of the state, so we will have beautiful souls all over the world praying for increased vocations in our diocese. While rosaries are typically associated with Catholics, non-Catholics pray the rosary as it is recognized as a valid form Christian devotion and mindfulness.

Take leap of faith and dare to love your family, those in need, pope says

MARSEILLE, France (CNS) -- The world and the Catholic Church today need to take a leap forward "in faith, charity and hope," Pope Francis said in his homily at a late afternoon Mass in Marseille's open-air stadium.

"We need to rekindle our passion and enthusiasm, to reawaken our desire to commit ourselves to fraternity.
