"NO QUEEN, but "Mary Queen of Heaven - single mum, refugee, role model for a revolutionary!"
The routine at each stop will be
- short reflection connecting the site to the specific sorrowful, glorious or joyful mystery,
- a song or a recitation relevant to the site
- those who are into the rosary - circle, do a decade led in Irish, response in English
- those who feel uncomfortable - can begin walking to the next stop and wait for the rest of us etc.
