Endorsements of the Eucharistic Rosary Congresses

“The Rosary Congress provides a graced and powerful experience for our Catholic Faithful to come into the Eucharistic Presence of our Risen Lord and pray together in adoration, in reparation and in veneration of our Most Blessed Mother, Mary, through reflecting on the mysteries of salvation in the Holy Rosary.”

Most Reverend Ronald W. Gainer, Bishop Emeritus of Harrisburg

“The Rosary Congress calls us together in Mary’s name to renew our commitment to being faith-filled disciples of Jesus. May this Congress continue to feed us spiritually and send us forth in faith.”

Most Reverend Gregory M. Aymond, Archbishop Emeritus of New Orleans

“The Church and the world need the rosary today more than ever. As a Marian priest, I have made it my mission to promote the rosary through talks, books, and DVDs. Yet, I’m certain that one of the best ways to promote the rosary is through Diocesan Rosary Congresses.”

Fr. Donald Calloway, MIC Author, Champions of the Rosary: The History and Heroes of a Spiritual Weapon

“I give my enthusiastic and urgent endorsement to the Diocesan Rosary Congresses. I ask that dioceses throughout the country unite to deepen our consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary and to beg her intercession for her divine Son’s grace, love, and mercy upon us all during these trying times.”

Most Reverend William E. Lori, Archbishop of Baltimore

“I want to express to you my gratitude for giving us the tools necessary to organize the Congress. What made this event such a wonderful experience was that it was so simple to organize and it flowed so beautifully. Thank you for all that you do for the Church, let us keep each other in prayer.”

Most Reverend Brendan J. Cahill, Bishop of Victoria

“Many pastors and lay faithful who participated spoke very encouragingly and enthusiastically about the Congress. One pastor commented how surprised he was to see so many parishioners praying before Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament late into the night. During these difficult and confusing times, it was especially important to seek the intercession of Our Blessed Mother. I am confident this year’s Rosary Congress will bear much fruit in our diocese.”

Reverend Nathan Ricci, Vice Chancellor of the Diocese of Providence

“In a world so dependent on technology and self-indulgent diversions the Rosary Congress offers a renewal of devotion to our Lord through Adoration, to Our Lady through the Holy Rosary and it provides such peace to the many that participated.”

Most Reverend Felipe J. Estévez, Bishop Emeritus of St. Augustine

“As a priest, the Rosary Congress has been a source of great grace for me and for my people. The adoration, the rosaries and the Masses have given us the special opportunity to pray together—often. Our parish has become a family because of the common prayer.”

Fr. James Boric, Former Rector – Basilica of the Immaculate Conception, Baltimore

“The people of our diocese truly felt a spiritual renewal and a deepening of devotion to the Eucharist and to the rosary. I have given my blessing for the lay team to continue holding the Diocesan Rosary Congress annually… I encourage my brother bishops to consider holding a Rosary Congress…”

Most Reverend Jeffrey M. Monforton, Auxiliary Bishop of Detroit
