You are Invited to Pray the Rosary
Parents and other friends of St. Louis-Reicher are invited to pray the Rosary together in our chapel. There will be two opportunities every week, Tuesdays on the St. Louis campus and Wednesdays on the Reicher campus, to join others in praying the rosary for our school. We began this week and are looking forward to continuing this beautiful group prayer for the rest of the year.
We would love for anyone to join us. Even if you unfamiliar with praying the Rosary. We are happy to acquaint you with it. Parents should drop off their students as usual, then proceed to park in the front of the school, sign in and go to the chapel. We will be praying the Rosary for the success and safety of our children, for the school and the staff, and any other personal intentions parents wish to share.
Thank you to Mrs. Liz DeLaRosa for organizing this wonderful opportunity.
