we prayed!

I am excited to share this new endeavor with you! Through this campaign, we will create a one-of-a-kind, family-friendly, place of pilgrimage, prayer, and renewal which will include: 

A Rosary Garden and Path radically reimagined - The Rosary Garden will be the "Crown Jewel" of The Father Peyton Center. Visitors will experience all the wondrous mysteries of the life of Christ with surprising freshness that echoes in their own lives. 

New outdoor Pedestrian Plaza for families and friends to gather, relax, pray, play and linger in the spirit and joy of family prayer. 

Father Peyton's dignified resting place with a beautiful and inviting oratory for reflection, inspiration, and devotional prayer. 

Museum of Family Prayer - Tours, events, and programs will take place at the existing Museum of Family Prayer. This museum immerses families in the history of family prayer, in the Hebrew Scriptures of the Old Testament, the Psalms, the New Testament, the Rosary as we know it, and the life and ministry of Father Peyton. 

Globally daily Livestream Mass and Rosary - The latest audio-visual technology will continue to globally broadcast the daily livestream Mass, daily Rosary prayer and reflections, weekly Adoration of the Holy Eucharist, and special live programming originating from the Museum of Family Prayer. 

Digital Prayer Resources - In addition to the in-person experience, the Father Peyton Center offers many online faith enrichment resources. Our programs are ever-growing to help families connect through prayer, the heart and soul of our faith. 

However, let us remember that the vision of We Prayed! A Campaign for Family Prayer is far greater than the construction of attractive facilities. It is a reawakening to the call that prayer must be the number one priority for families and society. 

Together in Christ,
