Approximately 100 members of the Schoenstatt Rosary Campaign gathered at Our Lady of Perpetual Help for prayer and refreshments. 

The afternoon started with recitation of the rosary and the parishioners who arrived early for the 4:00 p.m. Mass joined us.

Fr. Richard Miles celebrated the Mass and gave the Schoenstatt members a very warm welcome.

After Mass, 30 members did their Covenant of Love with our MTA.  Deacon Ed Dragon led the Covenant of Love ceremony in the church, while Kathy Strickland recommissioned 29 group coordinators in the Yenni Room.  

The picture of our Mother Thrice Admirable, a gift from Nina Stackpole, was enthroned in the church.  This picture will hang permanently in Our Lady of Perpetual Help.  May she bless all who gaze upon her picture and the church, that all who pass through her doors will receive in abundance the graces that flow from her Shrine--the grace of being at home, the grace of inner transformation, and the grace of apostolate.  May her Immaculate Heart reveal for all the light of hope!

At the social, members feasted on various types of cheese balls, "divined" eggs, sandwiches, jambalaya, sweet potatoes, potato salad, fruit and a beautiful cake decorated with a picture of our MTA.  Members were able to socialize while enjoying the wonderful food!

We hope to see everyone at our next one!!
