Almuena
Special to the Herald
Over one million rosaries will be recited worldwide on Friday, June 19. Global Rosary Relay, in its 11th year, requests everyone to invite friends, family and groups to spread the word and join in. Rosaries will be said for the sanctification of all priests and in thanksgiving for their priestly ministry. Added to the intentions is the eternal repose of those who died from COVID-19, and relief and healing of those who have the virus.
Worldpriest, the creator of Global Rosary Relay, chooses the day for this event when our church celebrates the feast of the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus. Cathedrals, basilicas and shrines all over the world are designated a time to pray a mystery, circling the world non-stop with the recitation of the 20 decades over and over again.

Cathedral Basilica of Our Lady of Peace is No. 53A and is leading the Sorrowful Mysteries. It will spiritually receive its turn from Basilica Nuestra Senora del Pilar, Buenos Aires, in Argentina after its completion of the Luminous Mysteries. When the Cathedral Basilica of Our Lady of Peace is finished, it will spiritually send forth to the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, DC, the recitation of the Glorious Mysteries.
