The parish of Errigal Ciaran in Co. Tyrone is amongst those participating in a new continuous rosary initiative.
It began yesterday – Ash Wednesday – and the plan is that a continuous rosary will be offered up every minute of every day for peace and charity in Ireland.
Every parish in the country has a date and time allocated, the same for every year. Parishioners who want to see the date and time allocated for their parish should check out www.continuousrosary.com.
Organisers say it would be appreciated if parishioners could get family and friends overseas involved.
According to parish priest Fr Michael O’Dwyer, the parish of Errigal Ciaran has been allocated the second day of every month:
January, February, March surname A-L 17.24-17.42; surname M-Z 17.42-18.00
April, May, June surname A-L 23:24 – 23:42; surname M-Z 23:42 – 00:00
July, August, September surname A-L 05:24 – 05:42; surname M-Z 05:42 – 06:00
October, November, December surname A-L 11:24 – 11:42; surname M-Z 11:42 – 12:00
For example on March 2, Fr O’Dwyer will pray the Rosary at home between 17.42 and 18.00, along with others whose surname begins M-Z.
