Annual Global Rosary Relay 2024
Join a world at prayer on Friday, 7 June 2024.
Pray the Rosary, unite and help encircle the world in prayer.
The Annual Global Rosary Relay for the Sanctification of Priests will take place on Friday, 7 June 2024, the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. This will be its fifteenth year, involving more prayer locations than ever, having grown from 24 single prayer locations in its first year in June 2003 to the entire world being a prayer in 2023.
Each of the participating prayer location countries pray a particular mystery of the Rosary at a specific allocated time on the day in thanksgiving to God for our priests and to implore the protection and loving care of Our Lady, Mother of all priests, for all her priestly sons. With the coming of midnight on 16 June 2023, the entire world will by then have been encircled in prayer on this The Worldpriest Annual Rosary Relay Day.
The Irish priest Fr Patrick Peyton never tired of saying that "The Family that prays together stays together". As part of the family of the Church, you are invited to join your prayers to the prayers of millions throughout the world. It is an opportunity to raise our hearts to God for all priests in the exercise of their ministry; that they will be blessed, through our prayers, with God’s grace for their priesthood; that in this worldwide community of prayer for them, they may experience our gratitude and support; and finally that they will persevere in unity with Christ and his Church and shepherd the Lord’s flock to the safe pastures of his Kingdom.
You are invited to join a world at prayer.
