A Joyful, Luminous, Sorrowful, and Glorious Widget!

On Saturday, I wrote about Sr. Mary Agnes, a running nun with an incredible running-ministry to children from families in crisis. Well, fast forward just a couple of days later, and I stumble upon another of Sr. Mary Agnes’ great works: the Facebook Rosary.

Very cool! When I first came into my faith a dozen years ago, I found on the Internet a downloadable program called the Virtual Rosary. That little bit of software not only taught me how to pray the rosary, but also really served as a pipeline of grace into a young convert’s heart. Kudos to Sr. Mary Agnes for giving the world the 21st century equivalent!

Says the running nun:
“The fact is that a lot of people are searching through the social media. They’re looking for something; they’re trying to fill a void. I’m trying to make sure that what I add into that void is something good and useful.”
This devotional widget has already grabbed more than 1 million hits! Way to go, Sister Mary Agnes! Praise be to God!
