The Friday Evening Rosary Makes Its Return

April 25, 2023

Each Friday, starting April 28, 2023, the Holy Rosary of Our Lady will be prayed to start at 7:00 P.M.  Depending on the weather; the Rosary will be prayed in the Oratory or Holy Family Hill.

Long a tradition here at Rome City, it ended when Larry Young lost property ownership in 2010.  Now 13 years later, the tradition returns.   Praise God!

Before the tradition was lost, pilgrims relayed many stories of prayers answered, peace restored, and healing of body and soul.   The regular pilgrims started as a small group and grew as the months passed.

As we are dismayed by the godlessness around us, please join us in praying for Our Lady of America’s intercession granting us a return to purity.  Pray we will be guided by Our Lady and flooded with Our Lord’s Grace with the hope that we and our nation will return to Him.

New events added to the schedule in addition to the First Saturday Devotion Masses.

Spring has sprung here at the Center. The April 1 Saturday Mass had more than 100 in attendance, of which nearly 25 were here for the first time! Most pilgrims stay the day to hear presentations on the devotion, visit the historic places on the property, and learn more about God’s Love and promise of Grace.

It will be a busy summer, and we hope you can join us for these upcoming events. Here is the line-up in chronological order:

 

Friday Evening Rosary

Returning a tradition at the Center from 2001- 2010, we will offer the Holy Rosary at 7:00 PM starting Friday, April 28, and continuing each Friday until Labor Day weekend.

Make it a date night!

Make it a picnic with the family or a date night.  Please bring a picnic dinner and enjoy the beautiful views from our new picnic tables. Bathrooms will be open at 6:00 PM.

This will be a community effort, and we are asking individuals, families, groups, and parishes to lead the Rosary.  Please call the office to sign-up for your date.
