Arizona Rosary Celebration
Our annual Rosary Celebration is scheduled for October 18th. This year the celebration will be virtual and will begin with a concert at 1:30pm. Please join the celebration at AZRosary.net. The guest speaker is Most Reverend Jorge Rodriguez, Auxiliary Bishop of the Archdiocese of Denver. Bishop Edward McCarthy, the first Bishop of the Diocese of Phoenix, held the first Rosary celebration in October 1976, to honor Mary. This year, while we may not meet in person, the celebration continues and this year we honor Mary under her title of Our Lady Undoer of Knots.
