“Teach young people on the streets how to pray...

         because if you teach them to pray...

everything else will be taken care of.”

-Michael Grogan

Madonna of the Streets Ministry, a Catholic apostolate, is a volunteer not for profit organization, providing material and spiritual needs to inner-city Bronx young men, who are experiencing significant difficulties in their lives. These young men, who in part represent our own future, come from dysfunctional homes, live within a harsh inner-city environment, have been involved with gangs, and drugs, and roam the streets with little physical sustenance, and with no spiritual guidance. Madonna of the Streets Ministries provides both; food for the physical needs; evangelization and sanctification for the spiritual. Through prayer, we introduce, we bring Jesus into the broken hearts of these inner-city youths. Our fervent desire is the sacramental conversion of these young men, relying on the intercession of our Blessed Mother Mary through prayerful recitation of the rosary
