The rosary is a beloved Catholic custom that links
the gospel and contemplative prayer. The structure of the rosary
shows it to be truly a Scripture-based prayer. Pope John Paul II
wrote “The Church’s love of preference for the poor is wonderfully
inscribed in Mary’s Magnificat....Mary is deeply imbued with the
spirit of the ‘poor of Yahweh’ and truly proclaims the coming of the
‘Messiah of the poor’” (Isaiah 11:4).
We pray the rosary as a community each Sunday
before Mass in the months of May and October. But this beautiful
prayer form is not one that should be put away the other 10 months
of the year.
Join us to pray the rosary at any time, and become
a member of our online faith sharing group based on the rosary. You
can share your thoughts, your meditations, your intentions for other
group members and reply to each other's thoughts. All done on your
schedule, at your pace.
