Our Rosary Wall
Feel free to tell the world – or at least your portion of the world – about the beautiful Rosary Wall we have here at The Marianist Retreat and Conference Center.
The idea for this project began to develop when The MORE Team visited Queen of All Saints Parish in St. Louis to present a Confirmation retreat. In Queen’s youth room, where the MORE Team prayed before the retreat began, was a rosary wall. All of us on the team fell in love with it, and as we talked about it we just knew that having a rosary wall here at our retreat center would be a huge blessing to our guests and benefactors.
Our retreat center staff members are incredibly blessed every time we notice that our guests have taken beautiful rosaries home with them after attending a retreat here. When some groups leave our retreat center, one or two rosaries are missing from the wall. Sometimes, they are all missing. And we joyfully replenish the wall, knowing that Our Lady is doing her thing of drawing her kids closer to Jesus.
It makes our hearts overflow when our non-Catholic brothers and sisters take rosaries with them, and it honestly happens a lot! How cool is that!
We are always seeking donations of non-plastic rosaries for our Rosary Wall, so that we can offer our guests an array of choices. If you have a beautiful rosary you are not using and would like to donate, this is the perfect place for it! Rosaries can be dropped off at the retreat center (place them on the front porch if the front door is locked) or mailed to:
Marianist Retreat & Conference Center, 4000 HWY 109, Eureka, MO 63025
Oh, and if you are still reading…did you know about our Crucifix Crusade? It’s pretty amazing, too. And it’s another way that you can support our mission of bringing God’s people closer to Jesus!
Thanks so much, and God Bless!
