In these challenging times many feel overwhelmed by global crises and are losing hope.
However it’s important to stay strong, pray and fast with confidence.
The Holy Rosary is a powerful tool in this effort. It has led to miracles and significant victories like the military triumph at the Battle of Lepanto commemorated on the feast of the rosary.
The Rosary praised by many holy figures throughout the Church’s history consists of prayers divided into decades each starting with an ‘Our Father’ and followed by ten ‘Hail Marys’.
The Rosary also includes reflections on the Joyful Sorrowful Glorious and since 2002 the Luminous Mysteries.
These mysteries are recited on specific days of the week. The Rosary both a prayer and a physical string of beads is a powerful symbol of faith and resilience in difficult times.
Let’s get started.
