ROSARY MINISTRY

The Rosary Ministry is in need of Rosary Leaders to lead the congregation in the Sunday Pre-Mass Rosary. If you can offer your assistance, please contact Rosaria Incantalupo at 718-948-0128.

Do not hesitate or be afraid to come forward, but do as Mary did and give your “yes”. Remember, Mary was a teenaged girl when she gave her YES, and Joseph was many years her senior when he too gave his yes. Let Mary speak to your heart.
