St Francis of Assisi parish in Vanderbijlpark encouraged all to pray the rosary during October, the month of the Holy Rosary. They held a lucky draw after Mass for a beautiful rosary, hand-made by one of the youth in the Parish, Claudia Gutierrez. Fr Paddy Noonan OFM blessed the rosary and a cake made for the occasion. Congratulations to the winner of the luminous rosary, Damien Jacobs.
