FORMATION OF THE LIVING ROSARY GROUP
As we near the end of The Year of Mercy I would like to
begin a new program here at St. Andrew’s Church. This
will consist of 2 new events involving all parishioners
who wish to participate, both Polish and English speaking.
The first part of this will be the formation of the Lady
of Fatima Living Rosary group. The Living Rosary Group
will be made up of 20 individuals who will each say one
decade of the Rosary each day, from all the mysteries.
Five people will have the Joyful Mysteries, five the Sorrowful
Mysteries, five the Glorious Mysteries and fiv
Luminous Mysteries. Each person will have one decade
of that Mystery to pray each day for a month. At the end
of each day all four mysteries will have been said and the
complete Rosary will have been prayed. At the end of the
month they will rotate the mysteries and the process will
begin again.
You do not have to gather at the church to
pray the Living Rosary, nor does it have to be done by all
at the same time each day. If you wish to establish a certain
time to pray during the day you may do that. The
goal is to have all 20 decades said each day to complete
the entire Rosary. When 20 participants are formed, we will
have a special blessing for them at a weekend Masses on
Oct. 1st and 2nd. During the 4:45 Mass and 9:15 Mass in
our Parish we will have the official Blessing of the Lady
of Fatima Statue, and the installation of the members of
the first group of Our Lady of Fatima Living Rosary
Group.
If you would like to be part of this Living Rosary
Group or have questions please see Fr. Chris.
