Enroll in the Confraternity of the Most Holy Rosary at Holy Family Church

Holy Family Church in Syracuse New York has been approved as a sodality for enrollment in the Archconfraternity of the Most Holy Rosary to aid in promoting and preaching Our Lady’s Rosary for the salvation of souls.

The Rosary Confraternity is a world-wide movement of prayer entrusted to the Dominican order by the Holy See more than 500 Years Ago.
The Rosary Confraternity is a spiritual association (of the Catholic Church), the members of which strive to pray the entire Rosary during the course of each week. They form a union of countless hundreds of thousands of the faithful throughout the world who, along with their own intentions, include the intentions and needs of all its members, while they in turn pray for them.
Confraternity Obligations and Benefits

OBLIGATIONS
Each member strives to pray the Joyful, Sorrowful and Glorious Mysteries of the Rosary each week (this does not bind under sin), and must have his/her name inscribed in the register of the Confraternity. There are no meetings, no dues.
