Rodd, the Core Team, and the teens of St. Rose of Lima are simply asking for your continued prayers – and to gather as a group to pray a rosary for all those affected by the shooting in Newtown last December.

To go along with this praying of the rosary, he’d love for you to take a picture of the group who prayed together (perhaps holding a sign with your parish name & location). You can then forward that photo to me – joec@lifeteen.com – and I will send them all along to Rodd, who will share them with his community. If you are able and willing to participate in this prayer with us, please send your photo along by January 31.
