Eucharistic Rosary Congress
October 3-9 2026
The Eucharistic Rosary Congress spans seven days and nights of uninterrupted Eucharistic Adoration, during which the Holy Rosary is prayed aloud at the top of every hour, day and night. Hosted in our diocese from October 3 to 9, this event serves as a continuous act of communal prayer before Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament. It is dedicated to the conversion of sinners, the consecration of our nation, and the triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
Our parish will be participating on October 9 from 7 PM to midnight.
Please,

September Family of Parishes Prayer
Let us pray that, inspired by Saint Francis, we might experience our interdependence with all creatures who are loved by God and worthy of love and respect. —
Lord, You love everything You have created,
and nothing exists outside the mystery of Your tenderness.
Every creature, no matter how small,
is the fruit of Your love and has a place in this world.
Even the simplest or shortest life is surrounded by Your care.
Like St. Francis of Assisi, today we too want to say:
“Praised be You, my Lord!”
Through the beauty of creation,
You reveal Yourself as a source of goodness. We ask You:
open our eyes to recognize You,
learning from the mystery of Your closeness to all creation
that the world is infinitely more than a problem to solve.
It is a mystery to be contemplated with gratitude and hope.
Help us to discover Your presence in all creation,
so that, in fully recognizing it,
we may feel and know ourselves to be responsible for this common home
where You invite us to care for, respect, and protect
life in all its forms and possibilities.
Praised be You, Lord!
Amen.
-Leo XIV
