Gathered in prayer, we become the Living Rosary, each bead a soul, each prayer a connection. Through the intercession of Mama Mary, may our faith shine brightly in our homes, community and country.

Manresa School came together in a prayerful spirit of unity and sacred devotion for the Holy Rosary at the old gym, an annual spiritual activity in honor of the Blessed Virgin Mary, spearheaded by the school's Pastoral Ministry Team. This sacred assembly united the entire Manresan family, bringing together administrators, teachers, students, staff, maintenance personnel and representatives from the Manresa School Parents’ Auxiliary (MSPA) and Blessed Candida Maria Foundation (BCMF) to pray as one.  

The Living Rosary held on October 7, transformed the gym into a spiritual space, deepening each one’s faith to God and devotion to Mama Mary. By praying the Rosary together, the Manresans collectively meditated on the mysteries of Christ's life, fostering a profound sense of prayer and spiritual reflection. Moreover, each one participated actively and meaningfully in a moment of prayer for mercy, repentance and healing in response to the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) call for National Day of Prayer and Public Repentance.

This prayer experience served as a beautiful reminder that the Manresa community is held together not just by its academic pursuits, but by the strong, enduring bond of faith, hope and love through the intercession and guidance of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
