About Rosaire en Famille

A Catholic ministry serving families: pray together, grow in faith, and remain united in Christ.

“The family that prays together stays together.”
Venerable Patrick Peyton, C.S.C.

Who we are

Rosaire en Famille is the face of Holy Cross Family Ministries (HCFM) in Burkina Faso. We are a Catholic ministry dedicated to the spiritual life of households, in the tradition of the Congregation of Holy Cross.

Our mission is clear: to inspire, promote, and foster family prayer — especially the Rosary — so that every home becomes a true domestic church: a place of peace, forgiveness, and hope.

In a world where families are often rushed, scattered, or weary, we believe fifteen minutes of shared prayer can transform a home. That conviction guides our work with parents, children, young people, and parishes.

Our heritage: Venerable Patrick Peyton

Venerable Patrick Peyton, Holy Cross priest and “Rosary Priest,” gave his life to one conviction: when families pray together, they stay together — and the world finds a path to peace.

Having experienced the power of the Rosary during a serious illness, he reached millions worldwide through radio, film, and great prayer rallies.

Today, Holy Cross Family Ministries continues that dream across continents. In Burkina Faso, Rosaire en Famille is its local expression: faithful to Mary, close to families, and firmly rooted in hope.

“A world at prayer is a world at peace.”

What we do

Our work is concrete, pastoral, and family-centered. It begins in prayer and reaches into the life of the local Church.

Rosary outreach

Family prayer evenings, shared decades, and accompaniment for parish groups and homes beginning to pray together.

Family accompaniment

Spiritual support for parents, outreach to children and youth, and encouragement to make the home a living place of faith.

Formation & resources

Prayer guides, Rosary mysteries, and simple tools for busy families — adapted to life in Burkina Faso.

Parish mission

Partnership with priests, catechists, and Church movements to strengthen family prayer in communities.

Our values

Everything we do rests on deep convictions drawn from the Gospel and the Marian tradition of our founder.

Catholic faith

We serve the Church faithfully, in communion with pastors and the Magisterium.

Family at the center

The family is the first school of love. We help it become a domestic church.

Marian devotion

With Mary, we lead households to Jesus. The Rosary is our privileged path.

Simplicity & closeness

We propose accessible gestures: one decade, one intention, one family gathered.

Hope & peace

We believe a praying home becomes a source of peace for the Church and society.

Rosaire en Famille mission

A ministry of the Congregation of Holy Cross

Holy Cross Family Ministries is a ministry of the Congregation of Holy Cross. Present in many countries, HCFM unites mission centers around one vocation: spiritually nourishing the domestic church.

In Burkina Faso, Rosaire en Famille belongs to that worldwide family while serving local realities — languages, cultures, parishes, and the needs of households. Our desire is both humble and great: that no family walk alone on the path of prayer.
