Rosary Recording from the Oxford Oratory


In August 2008 we made a recording of the Rosary, with organ accompaniment, fifteen readings from the writings of Newman, interludes of Gregorian Chant, and extracts from the writings of Fr Werenfried van Straaten. This was in aid of Aid to the church in Need, which Fr Werenfried founded in 1945 to help Christians in Eastern Europe; now it extends its aid all over the world, including our sister Oratory at Oudtshoorn in South Africa The recording involved Oratory parishioners from four continents, and was done on three successive late nights. It is still available from Aid to the Church in Need, if you want to hear how the Oratory community prays.

And if you want to see what ACN has helped do in Oudtshoorn, see their website too.
