In these dark and perilous times, when sin abounds and the world seems overtaken by evil, we must remember that where sin increases, grace abounds all the more. God, in His mercy, has given us a mighty weapon for these days: the Holy Rosary. After the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, it is our greatest spiritual aid. Do not underestimate its power. Our Lady herself, from Fatima to Lourdes to Akita, has pleaded with us: “Pray the Rosary every day.” Through this prayer, peace is brought to the world, the Church is defended, our families are protected, and our souls are saved. It is through the Rosary that we meditate on the life of Christ, grow in virtue, and resist temptation. So I urge you, pray the Rosary: not with mere lips, but with heart and mind united. Pray it daily, faithfully, and reverently. Make it the heartbeat of your home and the weapon you carry into battle. Heaven is watching. The Queen of Heaven is calling. Will you respond?

Quotes from the Saints:

• Our Lady to Lucia (Fatima): “Say the Rosary every day to bring peace to the world and the end of the war.”


• St. Bernard: “I cannot promise you happiness in this world, only suffering, but you will have great happiness in the next.”


• Our Lady to St. Dominic: “From this day, you will speak about nothing and preach about nothing but the Hail Mary.”


• St. Louis de Montfort: “In the end times, God will raise up little ones who will do greater works than the apostles.”


• St. Louis de Montfort (on the Rosary): “If you have one foot in hell and you call upon Our Lady, she will yank you out.”


• St. Louis de Montfort: “A single Hail Mary said properly is worth more than 150 said badly.”


• St. Pio: “Pick up your weapon!!!” (Referring to the Rosary)


• Fr. Patrick Peyton: “The family that prays together stays together.”


• St. Alphonsus: “If you call upon Our Lady immediately during temptation, especially of impurity, you will not fall.”
