One way we can increase our holiness is to incorporate the Rosary into our daily prayer life. Each day the Diocese of Burlington offers a recitation of the Rosary featuring a member of our Vermont diocesan community. “The Rosary is the weapon for these times.” May we grow together in holiness and protection from all evil. Special Rosary Relay On the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus
(June 11), the Diocese of Burlington will be participating in a worldwide
Rosary Relay led by Bishop Coyne at the Cathedral of St. Joseph in Burlington. Beginning at midnight on Friday, June 11th, various locations from over
100 different countries will start praying the Rosary at every half hour, passing it along to the next location until finally the entire world will be
encircled in the Rosary just before midnight of the next day.
The Sacraments are at the center of the our worship. They are essential to God’s plan, but what are they? Why are they important? Who gives them to us? Where are they in Scripture? And how do we live them out? Join Seminarian Greg Caldwell to think about and reflect upon the Seven Sacraments. To get the Zoom information email Greg Caldwell at gcaldwell@saintmeinrad.edu.
