St. Raymond of Penafort Parish, Brackett, WI. We are a rural parish covering a large area in three counties. We have long distances to travel to get to church, so when I introduced the Rosary Rally to our Parish Council, I was greeted with skepticism, and "Do you think anyone will come?"
If we only had 10, I would be grateful. This was our first attempt, and 25 people gathered on a very cold, windy day to plead our case before God through Mary.
We passed out blankets, caps, and gloves to those who were less prepared for the weather. The banner held up beautifully between two permanent posts by the rectory along Hwy 53 south of Brackett, WI. We did not get a picture, but if you use your imagination, you can see us by the banner, and maybe even hear our enthusiastic voices. We are looking forward to another rally next year, even if it's snowing. God bless you in your work. Veronica Sigurdson

Dear Robert,
We had 15 people in all. We had a lot of people honk as they drove by. It was very exciting to see and hear their response.
It was the first time we did this and I will send you photos I received from one of the members of Our Lady's Prayer Group" under a separate email.
Thanks for all you do to organize this important prayer rally in these difficult times. You're an incredible group of people and we appreciate all your support including the banner which we will save for next year.
Love, Nancy Mitchell and "Our Lady's Prayer Group."

Thank You. It was my pleasure to say both reparation prayers. God continue to Bless and keep you. This helps me personally to get your e-mails.
I was in Madison, WI. when we did reparations for the blasphemous play there some years ago. It was great to meet you. Continue and know God and Mother Mary smile upon you always!
