This will be an ongoing monthly event, that will be held on the 3rd Saturday of the month. The rosary will take about 20-30 minutes. Afterward, you may optionally join the monthly rally.

There is usually a priest or deacon in attendance for these services.

Knights of Columbus Assembly 3044 will be leading the Holy Rosary on Good Friday in front of the Planned Parenthood clinic in Aurora at 3051 East New York Street in Aurora. Park in back of the Blockbuster Video and next to the clinic. I have coordinated this event with Eric Sheidler and the Pro life action league. The Pro Life Action league will be leading the Stations of the cross. The Knights will follow right after with the Rosary. We are expecting a crowd of at least 150+. That is how many showed up last year.  I have a battery powered portable microphone to make it easier for the crowd to hear our Rosary.  Thanks to Kathy Durow who has offered to lend me the system again this year. She is the coordinator of the Adoration chapel at Sts. Peter and Paul.
