This invitation is part of a Magnificat ministry-wide initiative
where each chapter takes one day of the month to pray the Rosary.
The 11th day of each month is the day for our Magnificat Toronto Chapter.

The feast of the Holy Rosary, October 7th, was established by Pope Pius V in 1572 to commemorate the great victory won by the Christian crusaders at the sea battle of Lepanto. It was to thank Him for His protection in delivering Christendom from the strong attack of anti-Christian forces and to implore God’s mercy on the Church. The rosary was recited throughout Europe and the decisive victory was attributed to Our Lady’s intercession, the power of which was manifested at Lepanto.
Today, a new and perhaps greater battle ensues. A new crusade— a crusade of prayer—is needed to retake the ground the enemy has taken and to war against those forces of evil in our midst.
Magnificat began on the feast of the Holy Rosary—not by accident, but by Divine appointment for a purpose. We must take up this charge and respond to the call.
Our Prayer Intentions...
We will pray for the sick and the dying and those who care for them, for the Holy Souls in Purgatory, for healing and reconciliation with Indigenous Peoples, for victims of racism and violence, for persecuted Christians, for the people of Ukraine, Israel, Palestine and an end to all wars, for people dying from natural disasters, for our country and its political leaders, for family, marriage, the sanctity of life, for the Church, a New Pentecost, for Pope Francis and his intentions, for bishops, priests, deacons and seminarians, for Magnificat and peace in the world.
