Welcome to Our Lady’s Rosary Makers

Our Lady’s Rosary Makers was founded in 1949 by Brother Sylvan Mattingly, C.F.X. This Xaverian Brother taught people to make rosaries on the premise that they would make rosaries and distribute them freely to missionaries. Our Mission, set forth by our founder, Brother Sylvan, who envisioned a world in which all God’s children, possessing an instrument of peace and comfort, would work to fulfill Our Lady’s requests at Fatima, to pray the Rosary daily, is to provide those in need of a Rosary with one.

OLRM provides low cost materials, resources, and support in the spirit of Br. Sylvan’s mission and vision. We are a member driven, non-profit, Catholic lay apostolate within the Archdiocese of Louisville. Our diverse and active members spread devotion through the Immaculate Heart of Mary by making and sharing the Rosary with the world’s spiritually needy.

Testimonials

I make mission rosaries with OLRM supplies. I also make knotted cord rosaries and wire rosaries. I’ve made different chaplets also. I have been making rosaries for maybe 15 years. I belong to a rosary making group in my parish and also provide rosaries to a lady I know who is working for a sainthood cause. I shared a love for the rosary with my mother, who died in 2000. I promised her that I would pray a rosary with her every day whether she was in this world or the next, and I have missed a few days but only a few!

About two months ago, a craft with my children, where we strung beads on kitchen twine to create family rosaries lead us to a much greater purpose. I am so thankful to have found OLRM! My children, 7, 5 and 3 (and one more on the way, who will certainly join our work for Our Lady in time) and I have found such enjoyment making rosaries. And I have been filled with joy watching the kids grow in faith and love of Our Lady and The Lord through this work!

My mom and I just joined the forum a couple days ago. We have already shipped 50 cord mission rosaries and are working on another bunch. I am a sixth grader at a Catholic School here. My mom taught me how to make the cord mission rosaries last year.

Thanks for rosaries and prayers and warm clothing received for children, etc. Children who received the warm clothing from our soldiers showed them the whereabouts of two ieds, which might well have killed or maimed the soldiers. Please keep us in your prayers.

Sawasdee, all rosary makers. I’m Andrew from Thailand. I have made rosary as a part-time job for many years. Some rosaries for selling and some for giving to those who cannot afford to buy it. I distribute my rosary in a church at the center of Bangkok. I just ordered some crucifixes and centerpieces from OLRM. I used to go to Singapore to buy their items because it’s difficult to find beautiful crucifixes and centerpieces in Thailand. May God will be glorified from our mission
