Dear Father Provincial,
During the last General Chapter of Bogota, my appointment as General Promoter of the Rosary was announced. Following my presentation of the project to the General Council last month in Santa Sabina, it is now official.
Initially, the Master of the Order decided that the most important part of this promotion would be done by Internet, through the creation of a web site totally dedicated to the Rosary for the whole Order. We are now in the process of organizing it and that is why I send you this letter.
Ideally, we have to establish a series of contacts to collect all the information we need for the data base of the Internet site.
More concretely, I’m looking for the following “elements”:
- Any contact (brother, sister or lay) in your Province who would accept to collaborate in finding information… all those of good will are most welcome!
- Any homily on the Rosary or on one of its mysteries
- Any link to internet sites on the Rosary that should be on our site… with three or four commentary lines in at least one of the official languages of the Order!
- Any interesting text on the Rosary.
In one word, this site should become –God willing- The Reference for the Rosary.
I thank you most sincerely for anything you might be able to do; both in your charge and personally (including any homilies of you own on the Rosary!)
I remain entirely at your disposition for any further information you might need and I entrust you to the loving intercession of Our Lady.
Assuring you of my full commitment, I wish you a very holly and happy feast of the Immaculate Conception!
