The ministry of the Roses for Mary would like to thank all the parishioners who are members of this ministry for their contribution of rosaries during these last 13 months. During this time a little over 7000 rosaries were made.
We were able to mail out approximately 6000 rosaries to various missions in the US, and the Philippines. This is the equivalent to 20 cartons of Priority Mail. Each carton cost approximately $17.00 to ship. Thanks to the various Knights of Columbus donations we are able to ship these cartons out. Bishop Kaeffer assembly – St Francis Xavier, Council382 Joliet- and Holy Family Dine to Donate sponsored by Savarino’s.
We hope to start group sessions of learning and making the rosaries some time in September, but if you want to learn how to make them Rose Carlino will do a one on one class. Again thanks to members and donors.
