Ah the 13th of October, a tricky day, 3 great events and people had to pick. Call to holiness, Rosary Procession thought the city or a Big day at Marian Valley. Needless to say I put my loyalty to Marian Valley first, after all I am it's MC.
Here Father, Brother and I get ready for reposition
Here we have the procession in.
Father Incenses the Altar with the MC and Thurifer assisting.
Just a few photos from the mass
Here Fr Andrew the previous Prior visiting from Rome blesses the Statue of JP2
Here's another photo encompassing the statue
Like always the day ended with a procession to the grotto and benediction. The day was great, the turn out was around 650. Which is surprising due to other great events happening at the same time. What I heard and hopefully someone will come forward with photos, that the same number turned out for the rosary procession through the city. Although I was asked to MC the procession (just look after a crucifer and two acolytes), I decline, but it gave my friends who served it a valuable learning experience, that of the necessity of an MC.
The blog is coming out of hibernation and stay tuned for great posts from our reporter Steven.

I am profoundly impressed by the events you referred to. There seems to be quite a few "mustard seeds" north of the border.
