Call to Rosary, 4:00pm, March 28th
March 24, 2026
The harshness of this time of war, which affects us all, today bears the added burden of not being able to celebrate Easter together and with dignity. This is a wound that adds to the many others inflicted by the conflict. But we must not allow ourselves to be discouraged. Though we may not gather as we would like, let us not give up prayer.
Dear Knights and Dames,
As you know, there is still war and unrest in the Middle East and the Holy Land. The inevitable conclusion is that the unrest will not improve and it will disrupt the beautiful celebrations and activities during the Triduum and Easter. Cardinal Pizzaballa has just called the Knights and Dames from around the world to unite in prayer for peace, as only prayer can achieve it.
Cardinal Pizzaballa states, “I therefore invite you to join in prayer next Saturday, March 28, reciting the Rosary to implore the gift of peace and serenity, especially for those suffering because of the conflict. We will do so with humble hearts, certain that our prayer, even while we are physically distant, is capable of drawing upon the strength of God’s love, which unites us in a spirit of hope and trust.” As a response, the Western Lieutenancy asks you to unite with Cardinal Pizzaballa in a Zoom Rosary on Saturday, March 28 at 4:00 PM.
