St Mary Rosary Crusade
A rosary crusade for the sanctification of our parish youth and for vocations to the religious life was underway at St. Mary’s, but with the interruption to parish life caused by Covid, and now the welcome influx of new parishioners, the Confraternity of Christians Mothers has decided to restart the crusade. If you would like to participate, you will be as-signed a decade of the rosary to be prayed daily. As a parish, we will offer Our Lady 15-decade rosaries each day for the youth of our parish and religious vocations. Everyone who would like to join the rosary crusade, even if you already had joined pre-Covid, please email Maria Wargo at: Saintmaryrosarycrusade@gmail.com.

About Saint Mary church
St. Mary, located in Conshohocken, Pennsylvania, is a Catholic church and quasi-parish served by the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter (FSSP) with the approval and blessing of the Most Reverend Charles J. Chaput, OFM Cap., Archbishop of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Philadelphia.
The Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter is a Clerical Society of Apostolic Life of Pontifical right, that is, a community of Roman Catholic priests who do not take religious vows, but who work together for a common mission in the world. The mission of the Fraternity is two-fold: first, the formation and sanctification of priests in the cadre of the traditional liturgy of the Roman rite, and secondly, the pastoral deployment of the priests in the service of the Church.
