Dear Friends,
The Traveling Rosary has arrived safely here in Northern Vermont. How beautiful it is! Many prayer cards and notes from some members. Just wonderful. Lino thank you! I will spend the next two weeks praying for Holy Mother's intentions and for all of us on this forum. How blessed, how rich in spirit this is. Thank you!
God Bless
Nancyd

Hi Friends,

I told my wife that we are very close on the list to pray with the traveling rosary. She is very excited. Right now, we have a cousin with stage 4 cancer, my dad is having tests to rule cancer in or out and I'm out of work (but with an interview set up for Feb. 10). So, we have a lot going on that needs prayer.

While we await our turn, we are praying about what to add to the box when it gets to us.

As always, you are in our daily prayers...

Mia, as you are next on the list, please PM me your mailing information at your convenience. At the end of my two weeks, I will send it along to you.

Hi Mia,

You are next to receive the Traveling Rosary. I have a job interview on Feb. 10 at noon which I will take the rosary to. I intend to send the rosary next Saturday. I have not been able to contact you through Private Messages. If you are still out there and interested, please PM your address. If I don't hear from you, I will send to the next person on the list, BobMcCall.

Please keep me in your prayers, especially on Thursday.

Dear Friends,

Thank you so much for your prayers. I contacted two of my favorite churches and asked them to include my petitions at Mass today. I called Fr. Peter Rookey for his blessing over the phone and took with me all the 2nd class relics I have and the Traveling Rosary.

The interviewer thought I was "too good" for her department. She thought I was better suited for their Training Dept. and will contact them for me to see if they have any hiring plans. She has promised to let me know something within a week.

Even if the answer will be "no" for the moment, I know your prayers have and will help me. I ask you to continue your prayers. As a thank you, we continue to keep you and your intentions in our daily Rosary.

With the Traveling Rosary package, I am including various holy cards and prayers, a healing cloth blessed by Fr. Rookey and various devotional items with regard to St. Joseph. I shared the rosary for a couple of days with my parents and also an elderly aunt and cousin who is dying. I am very grateful to have the rosary with me on my interview today.

Hi Friends,

The traveling rosary is now on its way to its next destination. Thanks to all who were before me. I enjoyed every minute of having it. I shared it with my elderly parents, an elderly aunt, and a cousin with stage 4 cancer. All were blessed by it. I prayed for all of us here on the forum as well.

Thank you to Pandora for starting this wonderful idea off so well!

The Rosary arrived at my house today in Pennsylvania - safe and sound. I will take good care of it for the next couple of weeks before I send it on to the next person on the list. Thanks so much - this was a great idea!

Thank you so much Pandora, Bob just PM'd me for my address and I'm now super excited in anticipation! I wasn't expecting it to arrive so soon!!

With so much happening around the world today I cant resist to believe that these are indeed the 'signs of the times' that our mystics said of our Lady's messages. It seem like creation is calling us to pray pray pray.. as the only possible remedy is a spiritual remedy.

Nevertheless, I never loose hope because She did promise that 'In the end, Her Immaculate Heart will triumph'

Brothers and sisters in Christ,

I am excited to say that the Traveling Rosary arrived today in my humble home in New Jersey! So the rule is for me keep this for two weeks-- I will include you all in my daily prayers along with our holy father's intentions and of course Mother Mary's as well.

Btw, if I am the last stop in the US, to whom should I send this to next, Pandora?

:D The Australians among us had to wait for quite long time. Thanks for being so patient!

Gael, I have added you to the Europe part II list. I'm seriouly thinking of adding myself again, too. Now the rosary has been going through so many hands!
