Pope's Address to European Professors I am particularly pleased to receive you during the first European Meeting of
University Lecturers, sponsored by the Council of European Episcopal Conferences
and organized by teachers from the Roman universities, coordinated by the
Vicariate or Rome's Office for the Pastoral Care of Universities. ... My
greeting also goes to other civil and religious authorities, the Rectors and the
teachers of the various universities, as well as the chaplains and students
present. ... I invoke upon you, and the universities in which you work, the
maternal protection of Mary, Seat of Wisdom.

Parish Rosary Program
On May 19, 2007, fifty-thousand people prayed the Rosary at the Rose Bowl in
California. Earlier this month, the bishops of the dioceses in the United
States and Canada have been asked to encourage the churches in their dioceses to
start the Parish Rosary Program in all parishes by October. ...
The Parish Rosary Program is so simple it only takes one person dedicated to Our
Lady to run it. It is just a matter of downloading, photocopying, and
distributing small tear-away calendars to parishioners for them to tally the
number of rosaries prayed each two weeks and drop the results in the collection
basket. Weekly, year-to-date, and grand totals are published each week in
the parish bulletin to remind and encourage everyone to pray the rosary.
