Our Lady of the Rosary

An appropriate feast to celebrate during this month dedicated to the Holy Rosary. Our Blessed Mother has given us a beautiful and powerful prayer to say everyday. As one commentator writes, "Mary, Mother of the Church, prays with us and for us. Through her example and intercession, we learn the lesson of faithful prayer, just as through our meditation on the mysteries of the rosary, we learn the lesson of faithful life taught by Mary and by her Son Jesus" (Magnificat, 106). Just think how the mysteries of the Rosary give us a glimpse into the life of Jesus and Mary: Joyful, Sorrowful, Glorious, and Luminous. Each mystery is thought provoking and a great meditation for our time of prayer. We thank God and our Blessed Mother for this beautiful gift of prayer, the Rosary. May we continue to pray the Rosary with great reverence, love, and devotion. Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us!!!
