THE ROSARY:
October is dedicated to the Holy Rosary, one of the best know and popular forms of prayer that we have as Catholics. The purpose of
the Rosary is to help us meditate on the great mysteries of our salvation. There are four sets of “Mysteries of the Rosary” (Joyful, Luminous, Sorrowful and Glorious), giving a total of twenty mysteries. Each set of mysteries is said on specific days of the week. As we recite the Rosary, we are meant to meditate upon these mysteries. Over the centuries, the Rosary has gown into
a timeless family prayer, one that has been prayed by billons of souls in countless languages around the world. Literally every moment of the day, in almost every corner of the earth, Catholic
faithful pray the Rosary. If you aren’t sure of how to say the Rosary, visit the web site Come, Pray the Rosary, an online
video for participation in worldwide or individual prayer.

Ukraine. Total volunteer hours for the month amounted to 125 hours. Much appreciation to our SSVP members and non members for their time and effort. As evidenced by the number of furniture
donations, we are blessed with caring individuals and families who generously continue to support SSVP in its mission. THANK YOU.

go out to the CWL Cathedral for their help in September. And to all of you who continue to provide financial support, especially to our Poor Box Collection, thanks and God Bless.
