Praying our Parish Rosary
Every Sunday at 10:20am in church, we pray the Glorious Mysteries of the Holy Rosary for the intentions of our parish, in particular for those written in the Intention Book located at the statue of St. Raphael the Archangel. Please add your intentions to the book so we can lift up your needs and be united in prayer. We read the intentions that have been put in the book the previous Sunday or during the week. This can be anonymous if you want. Let us prayerfully accompany you on your journey, in imitation of Our Patron, St. Raphael the Archangel.
