First Friday Activities

This month's first Friday activities were centered around the rosary and Our Lady's apparitions. To begin the day's activities, one of the moms talked about the origins of the rosary and the importance of meditating upon the mysteries of Our Lord's life. The kids then were taught how to make rope rosaries.










The really little kids colored a page about the rosary.










When the kids were finished making their rosaries, the priest from the chapel at the nursing home came to bless them.


After he blessed them, we all went outside to the Rosary Garden and prayed a decade of the rosary. The older boys were asked to lead the decade and they did a great job. It was a very nice time for everyone. They all were so proud of their rosaries, I couldn't help but get a picture of them at the Rosary Garden.
