๐ Why You Should Pray the Rosary Daily
The Rosary brings peace, grace, and strength into our lives. It draws us closer to Jesus through Mary and teaches us to meditate on the mysteries of salvation — the joys, sorrows, and glories of Christ’s life.
Whether prayed alone or with family, the Rosary is a lifeline of grace, a shield of protection, and a pathway to Heaven.
“When you say your Rosary, the angels rejoice, the Blessed Trinity delights in it, my Son finds joy in it, and I myself am happier than you can possibly guess.”
— Our Lady to Blessed Alan de la Roche

Each bead is a step toward Heaven, each prayer a whisper of love, and each mystery a reflection of Christ’s eternal victory.
