October is traditionally the month dedicated to Our Lady of the Rosary. Many Rosary events will be taking place in homes, churches and shrines around the world.

In London, the Rosary is prayed live on-line at the National Rosary Shrine at St Dominic's Church, Haverstock Hill.

Once again, Catholics are invited also being invited to take part in an intensive Rosary Whirlwind Mission to pray for the world

Organiser Antonia Moffat writes: "As the global pandemic threatens a second wave - people are fearful of what the future may hold. More than ever we need to intercede for our Isles and for the conversion to Christ of our peoples and that they be protected from all danger, from all sickness and from all evil.

"Our refuges are the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary with the mantle of protection of St Michael & the Angels, St. Joseph, and our Saints & Martyrs. Rosary Whirlwind will invoke the mighty intercession of Our Lady of the Rosary inviting a WHIRLWIND of Heavenly Grace to blow where it wills across our Nations. It will take place from wherever you are and will have four main components!

"There will be invitations to a nightly online Rosary at 8pm led from a different Marian Shrine, Cathedral or Parish" = see the links below.

Antonia says: " On Tuesday October 13th - The Feast of Our Lady of Fatima of the Holy Rosary we will undertake the Rosary Whirlwind British Isles from wherever we are.

"You are invited to sign up your location on this map: https:// www.rosaryonthecoast.co.uk

"Participants are encouraged to arrange Rosaries in places all over our Isles - Rosary in your neighbourhood, Rosary around your parish or diocese, Rosary from your convent or monastery, Rosary in your home, from your hospital bed, your prison cell, from your care home, Rosary online - Rosary from wherever you are called."

Participants are advised to check on the latest Covid-19 safety regulations in their their areas.

On Saturday October 31st - the Eve of All Saints - there will be a National Rosary relay Rally from 9am to 9pm - where the Dioceses of the British Isles are invited to take an hour where the Rosary is said in parishes, homes etc throughout the Diocese during their designated hour.

The Culmination of the Rosary Mission will be on Sunday November 1st, the Feast of All Saints, when Bishop John will lead a thanksgiving Rosary at 8pm from St. Mirin's Cathedral, Paisley, Scotland."
