The Archdiocese of Hartford is hosting a Traveling Rosary Congress during October, the month of the Most Holy Rosary, from Saturday, October 3 through Friday, October 9.

A Traveling Rosary Congress is seven days of around-the-clock Eucharistic Adoration and Hourly Rosary, with each day hosted at a different parish in the archdiocese, in response to Our Lady of Fatima’s call to conversion, consecration and prayer. It is offered in a spirit of reparation to restore the sanctity of life, to pray for vocations, to establish peace in our cities, nation, and world, and to console the hearts of Jesus and Mary.

During this 7-day period of the Traveling Rosary Congress, the host parishes will offer Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament with the Rosary and the Chaplet of Divine Mercy prayed aloud at the beginning of each hour, followed by silent prayer for the remainder of the hour.

An Opening Mass for the Rosary Congress will be held on Saturday, October 3 at 4:15 pm at the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception. The Most Reverend Leonard P. Blair will celebrate a Closing Mass for the Rosary Congress on Friday, October 9 at 7:00 pm at the Cathedral of St. Joseph in Hartford.

Please consider participating in this special event as we pray in reparation for our families, our archdiocese, our country, and our world.
