October, Month of the Rosary: Universal Call
The Pope invited the faithful around the world to pray the Rosary every day during October, offering the prayer for peace, both in a personal as well as familial and communal way.
To those who serve in the Vatican, the Pontiff asked them to pray in St. Peter’s Basilica every day at 7:00 PM. This proposal extends the prayer itinerary throughout all of October.
In addition, the Pope encourages joining from parishes, communities, families, and in an individual way, offering the daily Rosary for concord among peoples and the end of conflicts.
