On Sunday, October 5th, members of the New Jersey Area joined together in a powerful public witness of faith by participating in the Rosary Coast to Coast event. The “Rosary Rally for Our Nation,” held in Madison, NJ, was co-hosted by Christine Myers, DM, and Rev. Owen Moran, ChM, Pastor of St. Vincent Martyr Church. The event brought together parishioners, community members, and Knights and Dames in a shared spirit of prayer and unity.
Bishop Kevin Sweeney, ChC, of the Diocese of Paterson, led the Eucharistic Procession through the streets of Madison, followed by Adoration and Benediction. He also helped guide the faithful in praying the Rosary, creating a deeply moving and spiritually enriching experience for all in attendance. The warm autumn afternoon added to the beauty of the day, as the procession drew a strong turnout from both members and local parishioners. It was a meaningful expression of devotion and solidarity, reflecting the strength and vibrancy of our Catholic community.
