The following report comes to us from team leader Lucy in Boise, Idaho:

It’s impossible to predict who will be drawn to the Rosary table. One young man on a bicycle circled back after hearing the Rosaries were free. Though unfamiliar with the Rosary, he was relieved to learn we were Catholic Christians and gratefully accepted one. Please pray that “Jack” grows in faith and love for Our Lady.

Four teenage boys stopped by, though one hung back at first. They listened politely as we explained the Rosary, and three accepted one. One boy lingered quietly over the pamphlet but seemed too shy to ask questions. Pray that these young men respond to the Holy Spirit’s call to deeper conversion.

Two young adults brought their elderly grandmother to receive a Rosary. Once we explained how Christ-centered the devotion is, all three chose Rosaries and continued discussing them after they walked away. May the Lord draw them closer to Himself through this prayer.

A homeless man stopped while on the phone and asked for a Rosary. He shared that the shelter where he lives often asks him to lead grace before meals. Lord, provide for his needs and guide him toward stability and hope.

Near the end of the outing, “Eric,” an airline pilot, stopped by. Though not Catholic, he shared that he had been listening repeatedly to The Bible in a Year with Fr. Mike Schmitz and had seriously considered becoming Catholic. The evangelists encouraged him not to wait for a “perfect” time to begin. He left with a Rosary and several prayer cards. Please pray that Eric follows the graces God is pouring into his life.

Despite light foot traffic and threatening weather, God blessed the outing. About 30–35 Rosaries were distributed, along with several prayer cards. Thank you for your continued prayers for this apostolate and for all those whom God sends to encounter Christ through His Church.

Praised be Jesus Christ!
