October is dedicated to the Holy Rosary, with the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary celebrated on October 7. This feast honors Mary’s intercession through the Rosary, a powerful prayer for peace.
Come pray the Rosary with us:
Monday & Tuesday
- after St. Lawrence 7 am Mass
- after St. Boniface 8 am Mass
Thursday & Friday
- after St. Ann 7 am Mass

Pope Leo XIV urges Catholics to pray the Rosary daily throughout October—individually, with families, or in community—to seek peace in today’s world.
The Rosary tradition dates to the 16th century when St. Dominic promoted it at Mary’s request. The feast began in 1571 to commemorate the Christian victory at the Battle of Lepanto, attributed to the power of the Rosary.
