Dear Rosary Makers,

The Incarnation (Christmas), the Passion and Death of Christ, the Resurrection (Easter) and some ordinary (time) life of Christ involved for good measure will seldom come closer together than they are poised to do so in this Church year. There is a set of circumstances whereby these events do come closer together and that is in the daily recitation of the Rosary.

Having said this, my thoughts of late once again were born of the daily Mass readings. The Gospel readings were parables related to the sowing of seed. These parables planted the seed in my mind that the Rosary, in particular your mission Rosaries, were just that; seed scattered and sown, both in the form of the beads and the prayers they generate.

With the above thoughts in mind, I would like to share the following with you from Archbishop Dolan of Milwaukee. First, a little story.  Read the Full Article....

Announcements

The Holy Rosary Apostolate Kit

We have a “Holy Rosary Apostolate Kit” available free of charge. It shows you how you can place free announcements in Sunday Bulletins. This is a simple process, where Catholic parishes are contacted to announce that OLRM has an introductory rosary making kit available. Parishes place an announcement in their Sunday bulletin and parishioners interested in making contact OLRM.

In the past many rosary making groups have been formed in this way. By answering the call of Our Lady and becoming a “Holy Rosary Apostle” you will spread the Holy Rosary worldwide and help bring peace to the world. Please call us on (502) 968-1434 to become a “Holy Rosary Apostle.”

Requests for Rosaries

It is a supreme pleasure to be associated with you in this work for the Queen of Heaven. You are partaking in a special way in a movement close to the All-loving Divine Heart of Jesus, Who put into the mouth of the saintly Pope Pius XI these inspiring words: “Charity for the Missions surpasses every other work of charity, even as the soul surpasses the body, or heaven surpasses the earth, or eternity surpasses time. ” From the least to the most outstanding contributor among you, whether it be by prayer, financial aid or actual labor, I am confident Divine Providence will reward you according to His own designs, for your zeal and faithfulness. - From the writings of retired mission secretary Teresa Robertson

 

Ad maiorem
Dei gloriam

“Say the Rosary
every day…
Pray, pray a lot
and offer sacrifices
for sinners…
I’m Our Lady of
the Rosary.
Only I will be
able to help you.
…In the end My
Immaculate Heart
will triumph.”
Our Lady at Fatima

Long haunted by the urgency of Mary’s words at Fatima, Brother had a burning desire to do something special for Mary, the Mother of God. He was a humble, holy man who shared his talent of rosary making with others.
