Virtual Rosary Prayer Group

Wilmington has it's own Rosary Across America now and it was launched on Thursday, March 19, and will continue every Thursday evening at 8:00 "until all our Churches can reopen" in the words of the leader, Sabina Newman, a parishioner at Saint Mark.

According to Sabina,

I want to reach out to you in this stressful time for our nation and Church.  When I saw our Church doors locked, my heart sank. Even though the doors are closed, HE is truly with us.  I always remember what is written in the Bible, Matthew 18:20 - "For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them."

I am proposing a virtual prayer/rosary group that can grow.  We want Jesus to know we hear Him and support Him.  Also, as His children, we need His help. Our Blessed Mother will guide us through her beautiful rosary. 

This is a live teleconference. No pre-registration is needed.  Just dial in before the start time.
