Rosary Sunday: Thousands converge in Marian prayer
By Andrew Junker, The Catholic Sun
November 15, 2007
An overflow crowd of more than 4,000 Catholics packed the Phoenix Convention Center Oct. 28 for the diocese’s annual Rosary Sunday celebration.
The Marian day featured music, talks, the rosary, adoration of the Blessed Sacrament and benediction.
This year’s Rosary Sunday honored Mary under her title “Queen of All Saints,” which Bishop Thomas J. Olmsted said reminds Catholics of the universal nature of the Church.

Man förstår varför de kallas bönsyrsor, när man ser deras skugga. Den här
sitter upp och ner i altantaket och belyses av en glödlampa. En kul detalj
är att den har ögon i nacken.

Religious and spiritual poem by Peter Menkin.
Exploring prayer time, a short poem about approaching the Lord...
Today I visited Grace Cathedral in San Francisco for Evening Prayer. On Thursdays, like today's Evening Prayer, the time is a choral Prayer time. Two friends went with me, and as usual everyone who has gone with me has enjoyed the prayer experience, and certainly the music of the choral group.
In this short poem posted today, the reader will find one sense of prayer, for here I outline the self approaching the Lord. It is a known issue for Christians that we are thankful for Christ's life, for his redeeming mankind. At some point, this becomes personal to the extent that the inner man, the self, the part of a man or woman who has an essence, still an observing self made stronger through succumbing to the knowledge that the persecuted Christ, the Christ of the Cross is able to evoke for us the sense of self that we are sinners. We pray through God's grace. In prayer one is received.
The part of the identity of a man or woman that is human, individual and universal, yearns for the peace and forgiveness that is part of the Christ one gets to know.
We want to grasp this eternity, what is there for us we do grasp through humility and the gift of grace that there is an essential part that is reached. So I have written about some of the matter of experiencing belief and faith in the Lord Jesus and in the continuing love and faithfulness of God the Father in this poem, making that word "self" broader and hopefully a more imaginative self.

From Wikipedia...
"In public worship, intercession is offered as prayer for the world beyond the immediate vicinity and friendship networks of the church community. As such, intercession constitutes part of the worshipping community's engagement with otherness, as it expresses Christians' solidarity with those who are 'other' than themselves. In so doing, a church both appeals to, and seeks to embody, God's own love for the world."

Dear Lord Jesus ... What a precious Shepherd You are to lead me into the same place of quiet prayer that You set before Your disciples. Will You help me still my thoughts? On these heavy days, I trust that You are King over everything. How I long to hear Your voice and rest in the words You whisper over me.
I lift my heart to You now and magnify Your great name.
Amen.
Prayer wheels are meant to be turned by the hands of worshipers. Their spinning sends the prayers out, up and away to the skies!

I make a point, when in churches, not to photograph anyone who's praying because it's such a personal thing. This lady, however, slipped under my guard and I only realised she was there after I'd taken the photo (in which I was trying to show how the cathedral isn't finished yet, although her presence entirely changes the focus of the image). Oops. I hope she won't mind...
I may redo this photo though because the perspective makes everything in the background look wonky. Hmm.
