"My Immaculate Heart
will be your refuge,
and the way that
will lead you to God."
-Our Lady of Fatima
What?
A Rosary Congress
In 1979, the people of Poland welcomed Pope John Paul ll to his homeland after praying continuous rosaries in the presence of Our Eucharistic Lord at the home of the beloved miraculous icon of Our Lady of Czestochowa. They did this for seven consecutive days. Now referred to as the first Rosary Congress, it was then called the “Siege of Jericho.” For a complete history, click here to access the (national) Diocesan Rosary Congresses website.
