The Rosary on the Coast for Life and Faith takes place on November 26th, Feast of Christ the King
26th November 2017
Across Ireland, North and South
Over the last two months over a million Polish faithful travelled to the borders of their country to pray for the preservation of the faith including the protection of the Unborn Child in Poland. Inspired by the Polish "Rosary at the Borders", Italian faithful held a similar "Rosary on the Border" for the same intention. Many of the thousands who participated prepared with a week-long fast on bread and water.
IT IS NOW IRELAND’S TURN!
Irelands Catholic Faithful are turning out in great numbers to pray for a great restoration of the faith especially among the youth and to pray for protection for our unborn babies, in Ireland, North and South. The Irish faithful are preparing to flock to our local coastlines, the Atlantic Ocean and the Irish Sea, to pray for the preservation of the faith and for the protection of life at all stages.
The "Rosary on the Coasts for Life and Faith" will be held on Sunday 26 November, the Feast of Christ the King.
Why did the organisers choose the Feast of Christ the King? Ireland was the first country in the world to be consecrated to Christ the King. This solemn consecration was declared in the 1930s and to date only three countries share this great blessing. The feast is extremely important. Acknowledging Christ as King has relevance for the spiritual, social, cultural, legal and political life of Ireland.
Remember that when we honour Christ as King, we are immediately brought to His Queen, Mary and her Immaculate Heart! The prayer at the coasts will begin at 2:30pm. It will not take long. It is winter and we are conscious that drivers need to reach home or at least the main roads before dark.
"WHERE TWO OR THREE GATHER IN MY NAME THERE AM I WITH THEM"
-- Matt 18:20 --
Precious Life are calling on Bishops, Priests and Ordained Deacons to take part and select locations along the coast which they are prepared to travel to. However the response of the laity has been so enthusiastic that we are calling on individual lay faithful, prayer groups, apostolates, etc to select locations that they will travel to on the day. We are working on the principle that where two or three gathered, Christ our King and Mary our Queen will be there.
So if you can come to the coast and pray the prayers of the ‘Rosary on the Coasts for Life and Faith’ programme with one or two people, tell us where you will be going and we will spread the word. Please be specific about the location. Once your location is published others will come.
Come along to the coast and pray the prayers of the Rosary on the Coast for Life and Faith' programme with one or two people if you can. This is a crucial time in the fight to protect Ireland's precious unborn children and we must call on the power of divine intervention to draw Ireland back to God and to Our Lady and to protect all unborn life from the point of conception to natural death.
