The priests composed 25 very beautiful PRAYER PETITIONS that they offered during each hour of their pilgrimage to Our Lady. The petitions are general in nature, but are focused on the COVID crisis in particular.
Similarly, below are a set of Rosary Meditations composed by Father Edward Looney - specific to the COVID pandemic. We hope these will be inspiring and comforting to you during your prayer time.
