In response to the scandal to our beloved Roman Catholic Church regarding the invitation of President Obama to Notre Dame and an award bestowed upon the most PRO-ABORTION PRESIDENT in the history of the United States of America , the people of Rockland came to pray at 3 pm at St. Paul's Church in Congers with Fr. Brendan leading Eucharistic Adoration, Divine Mercy, Recitation of the Rosary, Benediction and the Crowning of Mary. 4 pm the Mary Help of Christian Shrine prayed the Rosary under the guidance of Fr. Bill and then the Divine Mercy Chaplet. What a sad day in the history of our Catholic Faith in America. Mary is weeping.
