Month of Mary
Is your life perfect? Most of us are trying to put together the jigsaw puzzle we call life without a very important piece: prayer.
The Rosary is an extraordinary way to pray. It is a meditative prayer that honors Mary and asks for her intercession. There is just something about it that settles our hearts and minds. It puts everything in perspective and allows us to see things as they really are. It reaches deep down into our souls and puts us at ease, creating a peace that is rare and beautiful.
You can pray the Rosary for a special intention. You can pray the rosary to grow into a better person, friend, neighbor, citizen and member of the human family. You can pray the Rosary to deepen your love and understanding of the Gospels. And it only takes about 20 minutes of your time!
The Rosary works. But don’t take my word for it. Try it yourself!

Statement from Archbishop Dunn
“On behalf of the Archdiocese of Halifax-Yarmouth, I want to express my deep sadness for the tragic loss of the children at the former Kamloops Indian Residential School on the Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc First Nation. The recent news that the remains of 215 indigenous children were found buried at the former Kamloops Indian Residential School in British Columbia, is absolutely heartbreaking. I am conscious that this tragedy has a significant impact on all Indigenous communities, especially those here in Nova Scotia. As Archbishop, I want to offer my prayers for these children, their families, and their communities. Acknowledging and bringing to light this dark chapter of our Catholic and Canadian history, is difficult but necessary, in order to be able to do and be better. I continue to be committed to all who have been mistreated and hurt by the residential school experience, in which Church members participated knowingly or unknowingly. Let us pray for the guidance of the Creator, Son, and Holy Spirit to help us continue working with our indigenous brothers and sisters to take the steps needed towards reconciliation, healing, and peace”.
