Welcome Message
In the spirit of Father Patrick Peyton, CSC, join us on Saturday, October 8, 2011.
An event brought to you by the Diocese of Arlington and the Eucharistic Family Rosary Crusade.
“The family that prays together stays together.”
— Father Peyton —
In 1938, Father Peyton contracted a severe case of tuberculosis while studying as a seminarian at Holy Cross College in Washington, D.C. After the doctors failed to find a cure for him, he turned to the Blessed Mother and promised to spend his life promoting devotion to her if he were healed. Miraculously, he was cured and began to lead large Rosary Crusades for tens of thousands of people in various cities including New York, San Francisco and New Orleans. In 1985, Father Peyton's Rosary Rally in the Philippines drew more than two million people.
