Notice about the League of the Blessed Sacrament

  • Diocesan Rosary Procession

    October 11, 2026 @ 3:00 pm - 6:00 pm
    Gallup, NM, USA

    The Diocesan Rosary Procession, commemorating the 109th Anniversary of the apparition of Our Lady of Fatima, will begin at 3pm, Sunday October 11th. 

    Our procession will be a little different this year: we will gather at the Hill of the Cross at the North End of N. 6th St. in Gallup, and process down to St. Francis of Assisi Church, stopping at different stations to begin each Mystery of the Rosary. 

    The procession will conclude with Mass in the Church (and dessert after!) See you there!

  • Little Sisters Nun Run

    October 24, 2026 @ 8:00 am - 10:00 am
    Red Rock Park, 825 Outlaw Rd, Church Rock, NM 87311, USA

    Little Sisters of the Poor is a nonprofit organization dedicated to welcoming the neediest elderly, of every race and religion, into a home filled with dignity, compassion, and love. Your participation in this event directly supports the next phase of our apartment renovation project. With exterior repairs nearly complete, we’re now raising funds to repair the interior living spaces so our independent residents can move back into a space that feels like their own. Your participation truly helps us move forward.

    This year’s run takes place on the stunning trails of Red Rock State Park in Gallup, NM, where towering red sandstone cliffs, wide‑open skies, and vibrant desert landscapes create an unforgettable race experience. Whether you’re running for the challenge, the scenery, or the cause, you’ll be part of something meaningful.

    Thank you for helping us continue our mission and for making a difference in the lives of the elderly we serve.

    On‑site registration closes at 7:30 AM
