Deepening our faith by Praying the Holy Rosary.

“Do whatever He tells you” John 2:5

Why Pray the Rosary?

The Rosary is both an effective and practical tool to strengthen our virtues in the following ways.

  • Faith: it increases our faith when we personally witness our prayers answered through intersession of the Rosary

  • Hope: It increases our Divine expectation when pray it confidently and hope that our prayers will be answered

  • Charity: it is a powerful tool for praying for other peoples’ needs. One practical way to do this is by including a personal friend or family member for each Hail Mary or for each Decade you prayer during the Rosary.

According to St. Dominic and Blessed Alan, our Blessed Mother has made 15 promises to Christians who recite the Rosary (see photo)
