The rosary makers create rosaries, for endings and beginnings, for the needy and the lonely, for families, for healing, for peace, for every day.

Rosary makers make rosaries for missions around the world. They create them for St. Joseph’s consolation ministry, nursing homes, military members in combat zones, other New Mexico churches, children receiving their First Holy Communion, and prisoners in prison.

Twice a year they have sales and create income to support various St. Joseph interests. They have donated to the parish building fund as well as supporting a member of the Youth Group to summer camp. The rosary makers meet every 1st and 3rd Thursday of the month at Lourdes Hall on the St. Pius campus.

Hsiaoling Dohle is the president of Our Lady’s Rosary Makers. If you are interested in this unique ministry, you can reach her by calling the parish office at 505.839.7952.
