It’s coming around again – the day when people in every corner of the world pray for the sanctification of priests over a twenty-four hour period.
Worldpriest has designed this special new generic poster for all participating prayer locations to promote the Annual Worldpriest Global Rosary Relay for the Sanctification of Priests, which takes place on the Feast of the Sacred Heart every year.
This poster has been produced in six languages and is intended for the widest possible distribution around the world to introduce and promote this prayer event in which millions participate. The poster should be downloaded and circulated as widely as possible around the globe.

All participating prayer locations will begin to receive their personalised local promotion poster by early April of 2024, via email. Notifications will also be sent out during the month of May of 2024, stating from which prayer location you receive the Global Rosary Relay and to which prayer location you send forth your time of prayer during this real-time relay.
There are no limits being placed on participation by individuals, families, children and adults worldwide. Join people the world over in praying for the sanctification of priests through your commitment to pray the Rosary at an allocated time, praying an allocated mystery of the rosary. Prayers will take place in every possible location, ranging from churches, cathedrals, grottos, schools, colleges, hospitals, nursing homes private homes and all other suitable venues for individual or collective prayer.
This is an experience not to be missed. So regardless of age or local culture, Worldpriest asks you to unite with your community and country to pray the Rosary on 7 June 2024. Remember the greater the level of prayer the greater the blessings.
So on 7 June 2024 remember to ‘Pray the Rosary, unite with your country, and help encircle the world in prayer’.

New Annual Global Rosary Relay brochure just published in three languages for global circulation
Worldpriest recently produced a special full colour brochure as a complete overview guide to the Annual Global Rosary for the Sanctification of Priests, with financial support from Aid to The Church In Need (ACN) Germany for which we are most grateful and appreciative for their support. Here is a link to the brochure in English, French and Spanish:
Worldpriest-DL-ENG-Global-Rosary-Leaflet.pdf
Worldpriest-DL-FRA-Global-Rosary-Leaflet.pdf
Worldpriest-DL-ESP-Global-Rosary-Leaflet.pdf
This brochure outlines why the Rosary is such an important form of devotion within the Catholic tradition and explains in detail how the relay works around the world on the Feast of the Sacred Heart every year.
It goes on to explain how the event is blessed by the Pope Francis and includes a reflection on the Rosary from Saint John Paul, dating from 8 March 2003.
This is your definitive guide to this inspiring event that causes the world to stop and pray for a full twenty-four hours every year. This year is particularly special as Worldpriest founder Marion Mulhall celebrates the thirtieth anniversary of her calling of vocation on 15 January 1994. Hence during this year she extends her humble prayer request and invites members of all the contemplative orders worldwide to pray continuously for a great spiritual success on 7 June 2024 – Global Rosary Relay Day.
Some personal endorsements from around the world for the Worldpriest Global Rosary Relay for the Sanctification of Priests
Karachi, Pakistan
The Worldpriest Annual Global Rosary Relay has played a cardinal role in establishing a socio-ecclesiastical relationship between priests and laity through praying the holy Rosary. By participating in this unique annual religious event, praying for the sanctification of priests, providing practical support in its organisation and promoting it through the use of all available media – especially social media – I am happy that integrated socio-ecclesiastical relations between priests and lay believers are being intensified.

‘Contemplating on Mary as the first disciple of her Son while reciting the rosary with the parish community and participating in the Global Rosary Relay brought a great sense of prayer, contemplation, reassurance and hope to one and all who participated.’

Botswana wins the Global Rosary Relay Award for 2023
Botswana, located in the Gaborone Diocese of Southern Africa, was the award winner of the prestigious Worldpriest Annual Global Rosary Relay which took place on 16 June 2023. This award fully recognised the outstanding participation and enthusiasm of the people of Botswana during last year’s worldwide prayer event.
The exceptional level of local promotion was an important element in granting this award, combined with the high level of outreach to all deaneries of the Gaborone Diocese as individual events were very effectively organised, including the planning of prayer times. An award presentation plan is currently being planned and we will share pictures through the Worldpriest social media, along with a write-up on all platforms as soon as we receive details from Botswana.
Many congratulations to Fidelma Webb for her commitment in representing the Worldpriest Global Apostolate in South Africa and reaching such a high level of success in 2023.
