CHARLOTTE — Students at St. Ann School presented “living rosaries” to honor and pray for the diocese’s Bishop-elect Michael Martin, who will be installed as bishop later this month.
Students represented different parts of a rosary, taking turns to present different prayers as teachers explained the upcoming leadership change.
“It’s a beautiful example of how prayers can be said with motion, and the children get a lot out of it,” said Principal Celine Little.
“(The bishop-elect) has a big job in front of him and we are excited for him, but we also know he needs all our prayers…Hopefully, these prayers for him will help him feel the love we have for him here in Charlotte.”
