The Most Holy Rosary of The Blessed Virgin Mary Prayers and Meditations with Scriptural References “The Rosary is my favorite prayer. Such a wonderful prayer! Wonderful in its simplicity and its depth. In this prayer we repeat again and again the words that the Virgin Mary heard from the Archangel and from her cousin Elizabeth. The church in its entirety associates itself with these words. On the background of the words ‘Ave Maria’ the soul visualizes the main events in the life of Jesus Christ... A prayer so simple and so rich. From my deepest heart I exhort all to recite it.” - Pope John Paul II "The Rosary has accompanied me in moments of joy and in moments of difficulty. To it I have entrusted any number of concerns; in it I have always found comfort…. The Rosary is my favorite prayer…. Marvelous in its simplicity and its depth." - Pope John Paul II, Rosarium Virginis Mariae How to pray the Rosary - from our webmaster's own site Prayers of the Rosary - from our webmaster's own site MEDITATIONS:- See our beautiful stained glass windows depicting the mysteries The First Joyful Mystery -The Annunciation The
