Rejoice always. Pray without ceasing. In all circumstances
give thanks for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus. — 1
Thessalonians 5:16-18

History of the Blessed Mother Prayer Group
In 1987, a group of Holy Family parishioners visited Medugorje, Yugoslavia (at
that time) led by Alva Lee Arnold (RIP). There, they became more appreciative of
Mary’s role in their redemption, more appreciative of the precious gift of faith,
and more appreciative of the prayers of the Holy Rosary. Their love for Mary and
devotion to the rosary increased and they began meeting on the first Saturday of
each month, in honor of our Blessed Mother.
