I pray God may grant you a blessed Holy Week!  A couple of things going on – first, 40 Hours Adoration at St. Mark in Plano, starting on Tuesday (tomorrow) 04/03 at 3 pm and going until Holy Thursday at 8am.  Spend time with Our Eucharistic Lord this Holy Week! 

Secondly, there is an effort to have a Church-wide Rosary prayed on Good Friday.  I received this via e-mail:

Imagine what might happen if every Catholic in the world would pray a Rosary on the same day! We have an example in October of 1573 [actually, 1571], when Europe was saved from the invasion of the mighty Turkish fleet, [at the Battle of Lepanto, one of the greatest naval battles ever fought] by the praying of the Rosary by all Christians!

So, on Good Friday, let us all pray a Rosary for peace in the world and the return of moral values into our communities. If possible, please pray your Rosary between Noon and 3:00pm.

I don’t know about you, but I pray a Rosary every day, for many intentions.  Definitely for a return to the great defense of the moral doctrines of the Faith.  I strongly believe every Catholic should pray at least one Rosary every day.  I know many who pray many Rosaries a day.  There is no prayer more pleasing to God, or more efficacious for ourselves, the Church, and the world, than the Rosary.
