I’d like to share some wonderful words that our beloved friends in heaven have said about the Rosary.
You can use these if anyone ever asks why you pray the Rosary.
Or maybe you start questioning it yourself as you go through periods of desolation.
Or maybe you need some inspiration to continue teaching your kids this wonderful prayer.
From Saint Mother Theresa of Calcutta
The Rosary is my constant companion. Pray the Rosary every day with great faith and you will see miracles in your life.
From Saint Josemaria Escriva
The holy Rosary is a powerful weapon. Use it with confidence and you'll be amazed at the results.
From Pope Leo XIII
Our need of divine help is as great today as when the great Dominic introduced the use of the Rosary of Mary as a balm for the wounds of his contemporaries.
From Pope Paul IV
Without contemplation, the Rosary is a body without a soul, and its recitation runs the risk of becoming a mechanical repetition of formulas, in violation of the admonition of Christ: 'In praying do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do; for they think they will be heard for their many words' (Mt 6:7). By its nature the recitation of the Rosary calls for a quiet rhythm and a lingering pace, helping the individual to meditate on the mysteries of the Lord's life as seen through the eyes of her who was closest to the Lord. In this way the unfathomable riches of these mysteries are disclosed”.
From Blessed Bartolo Longo
Just as two friends, frequently in each other's company, tend to develop similar habits, so too, by holding familiar converse with Jesus and the Blessed Virgin, by meditating on the mysteries of the Rosary and by living the same life in Holy Communion, we can become, to the extent of our lowliness, similar to them and can learn from these supreme models a life of humility, poverty, hiddenness, patience and perfection.
From Pope John Paul II
The Rosary mystically transports us to Mary's side as she is busy watching over the human growth of Christ in the home of Nazareth. This enables her to train us and to mold us with the same care, until Christ is “fully formed” in us (cf. Gal 4:19).
Today, we released our next Praying with the Saints video. You can pray the Joyful mysteries with St. Thérèse of Lisieux.
Over the next few days, we will be releasing the other mysteries!
Is the Rosary too long to teach your little? We have a little-known page on our website that takes you through the small prayers and little 3-day novena’s you can pray with your future saints. It goes from simply teaching the sign of the cross, to teaching the full Rosary. You can find that web page here.
