World Wide Pray the Rosary with Pope Francis at 4:00 PM EDT to end the Coronavirus Pandemic – Here is the Youtube Link to participate with Pope Francis and the World.. God Bless
ROME – On the same day Italy surpassed China in the number of fatalities related to the COVID-19 coronavirus, Pope Francis joined the Italian bishops in calling for a nationwide rosary to pray for an end to the outbreak set for 9:00 p.m. Rome time, 4:00 p.m. on the East Coast of the US, offering special prayers for families and the elderly.
In a March 19 video message marking both the Feast of St. Joseph and the day of prayer the Italian bishops’ conference set aside for the end of the coronavirus, Francis asked the Virgin Mary to “beg the Lord so that he frees the world from every form of pandemic.”
As part of their appeal, the bishops’ conference asked that Catholics throughout Italy join in praying the rosary at 9:00 p.m., placing either a white cloth or a candle in their windows and asking Saint Joseph, the protector of the Holy Family, to intercede for families and the end of the outbreak.
