CALLING ALL MOMS AND THEIR CHILDREN!!

LIVING ROSARY at Prince of Peace Church, October 27th, Tueday at 3:45 pm.

We need at least 68 "beads" or volunteers (moms and/or children) to make this rosary a success. I hope to get all the volunteers for this first rosary from the MOMS group. Moms, we will let you decide if your child is age appropriate for this. Some 3 year olds would LOVE to say their Hail Mary on the microphone for all to hear. Please don't worry if your child gets "shy" once it is their turn - you can always step in a say their prayer for them. The format will be that each "bead" say the beginning of the prayer and the audience will respond. Cindy will distribute prayer cards so everyone can just read their card.

There will have the sign-up sheet at the next meeting but feel free to email Cindy Kayanan (ckayanan@aol.com) if you and your child are interested in volunteering. Also, she is all for positive peer pressure so if your child wants to sit next to their friend, let her know that too and we will make sure they are in the same "decade".
