The Men’s Rosary initiative began in Poland and later spread to several countries, including Brazil.
Adelaide – Australia (07/08/2023 16:48, Gaudium Press) On August 5, last Saturday, a gathering of Catholic men took place in the Australian city of Adelaide, marking the inauguration of the first Men’s Rosary event in the region. The session, which commenced with the celebration of Holy Mass, unfolded near St. Francis Xavier Cathedral.
Sydney was the pioneer city on the Australian continent to establish a recurring Rosary event. Drawing inspiration from the international Catholic Men’s Rosary movement, participants engaged in the Marian initiative known as the “Sydney Men’s Rosary Crusade.” This assembly convenes on the first Saturday of every month, signifying their dedication to showcasing their faith and devotion to the Mother of God.

The Rosary Crusade
Ivica Kovac, the director overseeing pastoral care for Life, Marriage, and Family in the Archdiocese of Sydney, observed that the event’s ambiance was embraced by the attendees as a source of motivation to publicly affirm their belief in God’s mercy through the act of reciting the Holy Rosary.
Kovac further expressed, “These men acknowledge the existence of countless others who share their sentiments in Sydney and Australia. They hold the aspiration that their public demonstration in this Rosary Crusade will embolden others to wholeheartedly propagate the message of goodwill and love, regardless of their location,” concluding his statement.
