Notre Dame Rosary Rally

Under a crystal-clear blue sky on Sunday, September 7, 2025, the people of God gathered at the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana, to pray for peace in our families and in the world.

This year marked the 75th anniversary of Venerable Patrick Peyton’s Rosary Rally at Our Lady’s University. It was most fitting that Family Rosary USA, the Congregation of Holy Cross, and the University of Notre Dame united once again to continue his mission of promoting family prayer, especially the Rosary.

The procession was led by children scattering rose petals, followed by seminarians carrying incense and the Cross, and football players from Marian High School bearing a statue of Our Blessed Mother.

As seen in these joyful moments, there is reason for hope in this Jubilee Year of Hope, as families and young people come together to pray the Rosary with faith and love.
