Calling ALL Rosary Makers!
We are being called to pray for Blessed Virgin Mary's intercessions for an end to war through this 'service in action' handmade rosary project.
_______________________________
Peace be with you,
Abbot Marion, O.S.B. from St. Martin’s Abbey in Lacey, WA has recently returned from facilitating a spiritual retreat for the Benedictine Sisters in Ukraine. In solidarity and in communion with the sufferings of the Ukraine people, there is a VERY large effort underway to make handmade rosaries and send them to the Benedictine Sisters and those they serve in the war afflicted Ukraine.
We have a dedicated faith-filled team currently in the process of handmaking special blue and yellow rosaries to be sent to the Benedictine Sisters throughout Ukraine! The goal is to send over 10,000 handmade rosaries and to pray for the intercessions of Blessed Virgin Mary for the intentions of peace and end to the war and all violence in the region!
In an effort to successfully complete this goal, we are calling upon all those who are dedicated to our Blessed Virgin Mary, the Holy Rosary and our Risen Lord to assist in making and purchasing the needed supplies to handmake each rosary! Each Rosary comes handmade and placed in a white gift pouch, shipped by the Monks at St. Martin's Abbey to Ukraine and distributed by the Benedictine Sisters throughout all of Ukraine.
We are looking for your support both with volunteering for handmaking rosaries and/or your donations for this project to be successful. Please use the form below to sign up to make rosaries or donate your treasure for this rosary making project.
All of the Rosary making supplies are locally sourced or obtained through Fair Trade practices and from Our Lady's Rosary Makers (OLRM). All donations go to the funding of the rosary supplies and shipping costs with all remaining funds being sent directly to the Benedictine Sisters in Ukraine.
The Benedictine Sisters have no regular source of income. The Monks of St. Martin's Abbey, Lacey WA have set up a Foundation for the Benedictine Sisters in Ukraine to help support and sustain their efforts. All contributions are welcome!
If you are unable to donate your time, talents or treasure to this cause...please consider praying the Rosary and holding the Benedictine Brothers and Sisters throughout the world and an end to war in your prayers!
