Rosary for the Bishop, an online prayer campaign for Catholic bishops, has launched a new website to enroll participants and help remind them to pray.
The site, www.RosaryForTheBishop.org, opened on January 1, 2010.
The campaign was begun during Christmas of 2005 as a gift for Bishop of Madison, Wisconsin Robert Morlino. The year 2005 was difficult for the prelate, whose cathedral was destroyed by arson that year.
"We thought the good Bishop could use some prayers and encouragement," said Syte Reitz, a Madison-area Catholic.
