the Pacific. To date we estimate to have dispatched 135,000
Rosaries but many more are needed. In our experience,
Catholics have unused Rosaries hidden away in cupboards
and drawers. Could you help this appeal by hunting for
Rosaries in your home and among family and friends.
Rosaries can be sent to: Michael Blackburn, 164 Green
Park Road, Halifax, West Yorkshire HX3 0SP. Queries to:
