The Rosary Rally in honor of Our Lady of Fatima was well attended by approximately 70 people. The majority of the people went on the walk and prayed the rosary. They were escorted by two men from the Sheriff’s Posse, Larry and Mike McPherson, who did a great job of directing traffic. The rest of the people who did not want to walk stayed at the church and prayed the rosary.   Photo by Charlene Rehder. Click on the photo for a larger view.
