The Day of Many Colours is based on the five colours of the Mission Rosary, and encourages children to unite in prayer with their sisters and brothers in Africa; the Americas; Europe; Oceania; and Asia. Its aim is to develop in children a missionary spirit of attention towards others, through prayer, charity, and action.
Schools can choose any day to host their Day of Many Colours, but we suggest it takes place on or around the feast of St Peter and St Paul on 29th June . You can order free posters, stickers and prayer cards to support your Day of Many Colours. Mission Rosaries are also available to order for a donation of £1 per rosary.
