Rosarian Contact Information Project
As some of you may know, Secretary Amy L. has been working on updating our membership contact list, which had grown outdated. We'd like to have a current member database that will make it easier to reach all of our members with important news and events. We are in a transitional time in which we have society members who only use a land line and some members who would rather have all contact through text or email. We'd like to know your preferences, so we ask that you click on the link below to access our Contact Form. This information is for Rosary Society business only, and is not available to the parish at large.
Thanks in advance for your time!
The Archdiocese of Newark has asked our parish to once again take part in the annual Eucharistic Rosary Congress. This year's Congress, titled "My Soul Magnifies the Lord", starts on Tuesday, October 7th and continues until Monday, October 13th. We have decided to honor that request by holding a day-long event at St. Mary's Church, hosted by the Rosary Society, on Tuesday the 7th. Our event will begin following the 9am Mass and will include Eucharistic Adoration and hourly Rosaries until 8pm. We will need as many Rosarians involved as possible to ensure there are society members present throughout the day. The link below will allow you to sign up for one or more time slots so we can make that happen. As plans for our Congress participation evolve, more about the event will be posted here.
Where: To Be Announced
When: Following 10:30am Mass
Hospitality 11:30am
Call to Order 12pm
Our first meeting of the fall was held on Sept 14th and was a lovely time to reconnect after our summer break. Plans for the upcoming year were discussed. The minutes have been posted for anyone who missed the meeting, and a calendar of events will be available soon on this website.
Who We Are
All women of BMT Parish are welcome to join us at our next meeting! We are always looking for new ways to share our faith and fellowship with each other. At our meetings you can learn about opportunities for small discussion groups, prayer breakfasts, guest speakers, volunteerism, and more. At every meeting we pray the rosary together, and you will learn the unique power that is present when so many women lift their voices in this beautiful act. Feel love for the rosary grow in your heart while your connection with our community strengthens as well. We hope to see you there!
We would like to send a special thanks to all of the Society members of BMT and our sister parishes in Bayonne who went above and beyond to make our 41st Annual Citywide Communion Breakfast a success! Over 130 women and guests joined us for a lovely meal and a stirring talk by Dr. Diane Traflet of Seton Hall University. We hope you will join us next year, when St. Vincent de Paul Parish hosts the celebration.
The 2025 Bayonne Citywide Communion Breakfast was held at the Chandelier Restaurant in Bayonne. Every guest received a beautiful St. Mary prayer card and bookmark, and a BMT pen--all of which had been generously donated by several of our Society members. Five of our elected city officials joined us, and Rep. Neil Carroll shared a lovely story of how he was touched by the devotion his own mother, aunts, and grandmothers had to the Blessed Mother. When everyone raised their voices in prayer, you could feel the presence of God in the room in a very real way. I left the event with joy in my heart and a renewed commitment to praying the Rosary. I'm sure I was not alone in that.
