The “The Queen of Peace” monstrance continues its pilgrim tour to Hungarian parishes.

The parishioners in each of the communities visited thus far have warmly received “The Queen of Peace” monstrance. In the Diocese of Kaposvar, Bishop László Varga led adoration of the Blessed Sacrament for peace for three days. Bishop Varga prayed on the meditations of Our Lady’s role and also led the prayers for peace proposed by the Association of Comunità Regina della Pace.

We would like to share a testimony of graces being received in Hungary as a result of the pilgrim tour: “Parish communities in small towns, where all is dim and grey, are being chosen for the pilgrim tour of the monstrance. In such places, the Holy Spirit can truly speak through the supernatural beauty of the Queen of Peace. Our Lady attracted people to adoration who kissed the pedestal of the monstrance, weeping. In Tarnalellesz, people did not want to leave until late into the night. The beauty of the monstrance brings a certain sublimity to these parish communities on the verge of economic breakdown, and uplifts them in this time when they need it most.”

On October 7, 2022, the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary, a new Star on the Mantle of Our Lady Queen of Peace shone. 

This newest star shone in the Franciscan Parish of the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Krosno (archdiocese of Przemyśl, South – East of Poland).

The Holy Mass of inauguration was presided over by Bishop Adam Szal (the Metropolitan of the archdiocese of Przemyśl). Representatives of the Association of Comunità Regina della Pace were present including Mr. Mariusz Drapikowski (Vice President of the Board) and Mr. Bogusław Olszonowicz (Member of the Board). Mr. Drapikowski explained the mission of the Association and its works: the Stars in the Crown of Our Lady Queen of Peace and the Stars on the Mantle of Our Lady Queen of Peace.

After the Holy Mass, the Certificate of joining the work of the Stars on the Mantle of Our Lady was officially presented as well as the monstrance of the Holy Family blessed by the Bishop.  Following the presentation, a day-long Eucharistic Adoration period was started as participants prayed together the “Prayer for Peace.”
