"The family that prays together stays together." - Venerable Patrick Peyton
Family Rosary | PRAY | Venerable Patrick Peyton | how to pray the rosary
Megan Harrington describes her family's devotion to the Rosary, which she appreciated in a new way after working on the documentary of Father Patrick Peyton's life: PRAY. Growing up, my parents made us — it was not a choice or an option — be in the kitchen at 7 am before school to pray the Rosary. They believed in its promises and the power of prayer. Gathering a herd of 11 children is not an easy task, especially in the morning. I’d like to tell you that their example launched me into the daily practice from the time I was a small girl until today, but unfortunately, it didn’t. The seed was planted, however, and I would be reminded of its effectiveness many times throughout my life. I am forever grateful to my parents, who were the first witnesses of the faith.
