A “Brisk but Beautiful Night” at the Shrine of Christ’s Passion (Family Rosary Across America)

Okay, here’s the recap of the Family Rosary Across America episode: It was a chilly night at the Shrine of Christ’s Passion in St. John, Indiana: like, bundle-up-or-frostbite cold. But that didn’t stop a crowd of brave souls from showing up to pray together and celebrate! 🙏

Father Rocky and his co-host, Drew Mariani, kept things warm with humor and faith as they welcomed prayer intentions right from the crowd. And oh, bonus: there was a drone show and fireworks after! 🎆

Here’s a highlight reel of the prayer requests that’ll make your heart swell:

Anna (8 years old) asked for prayers for her Uncle Don, who’s struggling with kidney failure. She’s hoping for a miracle to see him healthy by Christmas. 🕯️

Grace the athlete prayed for her ACL surgery to go smoothly so she can get back to the sports she loves. 🏀👟

Little Natalia (5 years old) melted hearts as she prayed for her baby brother Leo, who couldn’t be there. 🍼💖

The event was sprinkled with sweet moments, heartfelt prayers, and the kind of real-deal faith that can only come from shivering in the cold together for something bigger. ❄️🕊️

Catchphrase of the night? “Do you believe in miracles?” Yes, Anna, yes we do.
