During the month of October, every Catholic is invited to participate in praying the Rosary to honor Mary, a key principle within the VEYM: (4.2) Love and honor Mary, Mother of God. As God has chosen Mary to be the first physical tabernacle for Jesus, God also calls each one of us to be holy tabernacles for the Eucharist. 

This year, the National Executive Committee and the 12 League of Chapters are working collaboratively in the VEYM's 2023 Spiritual Bouquet Campaign.  We invite every member to answer the call from our Holy Father to pray for the healing of the world.  Let us ask Our Lady of the Rosary to intercede for us for the physical and spiritual healings of everyone. The VEYM's 2023 Spiritual Bouquet Campaign will begin on October 1st on the VEYM National Day of Prayer and end on October 31st . This campaign comprises of three meaningful activities to help us pray, live and serve:

  1. Virtual Rosary Prayer - Join our VEYM family every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 10:00 PM EDT/9:00 PM CDT/7PM PDT for a rosary prayer session lead by a one of the League of Chapters.
  2. Daily Spiritual Bouquet Activities - VEYM members are encouraged to pray at least a decade of Rosary daily to pray for our Holy Father's intention as stated above and take part in the daily activity as suggested in the calendar attached. 
  3. Holy-Ween Saint Costume Contest.  We dedicate every Tuesday and Thursday of the Spiritual Bouquet Calendar for members to learn about saints who are patron of healing.  All members are invited to learn from the featured saints, as well as those not listed, and practice the saint's virtues. Please submit a short video clip (1 min max) of yourself dressing in the Saint’s costume with your VEYM scarf ans sharing a story of how this Saint helped heal the world. Video clip with pictures, voice over, and musics are also acceptable. Kindly contact Tr Nina Tran at Anh.Tran@VEVM.net for more information.

May Jesus in the Eucharist, through the intercession of Our Lady of the Holy Rosary, bless you with grace, love and peace.
