We knelt as a family to pray…

ARGENTINA, Rosa Ciola •

Sunday, 11 October, the Schoenstatt missionaries gathered at St. Joseph’s Parish, south Morón, (Greater Buenos Aires) close to the Blessed Mother to pray for the missions. They prepared an illuminated rosary with the usual love and enthusiasm. On this occasion, it was assembled with colors to symbolize each continent: yellow (Asia), blue (Oceania), white (Europe), red (America), and green (Africa). Many Pilgrim Mothers presided at the gathering. People arrived little by little while the music ministry provided songs. When everything was ready, we knelt as a Morón diocesan family to offer our prayers.

Fr. Jacinto led the Holy Rosary; he recalled the history and the present situation of each continent, accompanying every mystery with a heartfelt reflection as the first beads passed through our fingers…

A spirit of brotherhood

The pastor prayed the last decade in Polish, his native language, that produced a spirit of brotherhood and unity with all the world’s brothers/sisters, who now more than ever, need a missionary presence that will give them God’s love and mercy.

We entrusted this need to Mary our Mother with the certainty that She will gather our petitions and elevate them to the Father.
