Rosary Mystery Meditations


Book Description

Rosary Mystery Meditations is a companion for praying the Rosary every day for three months. It follows the traditional format for praying the Rosary: the Joyful Mysteries on Monday and Saturday, the Luminous Mysteries on Thursday, the Sorrowful Mysteries on Tuesday and Friday, and the Glorious Mysteries on Wednesday and Sunday. It provides scriptures, mini-meditations and prayers for each day of the week. These meditations are “bite-sized,” and easy to digest mentally while praying the Rosary. The best way to use Rosary Mystery Meditations is to actually read along with it while praying: beads in one hand and this book in the other. While praying the Rosary has often been considered to be too stuffy and old-fashioned for our modern times, its relevance is actually more critical than ever before. The 21st century is beset with problems that demand solutions, and solutions often require deep prayer and the power of God. As Sister Lucia dos Santos (one of the “Fatima” seers) said, “There is no problem, I tell you, no matter how difficult it is, that we cannot resolve by the prayer of the Holy Rosary.”

Mother Teresa


Book Description

"Stay very close to Our Lady. If you do this, you can do great things for God and the good of people." -- Mother Teresa of Calcutta As it was for Mother Teresa, so it can be for the rest of us. By standing close to Our Lady we can find the grace and courage to overcome our own personal trials and crosses. Summon the same powerful presence and aid of Our Lady by following the example of Mother Teresa. "Sitting with Mother Teresa, watching her tend to the sick and the dying, feeling the aura of holiness around her person, seeing her bent in prayer, lost in God -- how often I asked myself if I was not seeing something of Our Lady, experiencing a glimpse of the Virgin of Nazareth." -- Joseph Langford, MC, author and co-founder of the Missionaries of Charity Fathers

The Contemplative Rosary


Book Description

You know that in an Apostolic Letter in 2002, Pope John Paul II added five Luminous Mysteries. Did you know that in that same Letter he also called for a new way of praying the Rosary? St. John Paul II's new way of praying the Rosary was based on the teachings of St. Theresa of Avila and has become known as the Contemplative Rosary because it more perfectly unites vocal prayer and meditation, transforming the prayers of the Rosary into a contemplative meeting with God. Did you know about these changes? Have you tried them? In our new book, The Contemplative Rosary, we have not only incorporated the five new Luminous Mysteries, we have included as well the many other changes Pope John Paul made to the Rosary. Here are his additions to the texts and prayers — additions small and large — that, as John Paul intended, unite the Rosary more closely to the official liturgical prayers of the Church as well as to Scripture. Here are also scores of full-color images for your contemplation that anchor your attention in each Mystery and transform your Rosary from a hasty, habitual recitation into a profound speaking to God and a keen listening to Him. Following the wise advice of St. Theresa of Avila and the new method proposed by St. John Paul, you'll find here for each mystery: A lovely, full-color classical painting depicting the events in the Mystery, for help in your contemplation. A unique announcement of the Mystery. A statement of the expected fruits of the Mystery. The Scriptural passage you should consider before embarking on your prayers of the Mystery. A call for a moment of silence in order to recollect yourself before entering the presence of God. Each Mystery's own unique Hail Mary, including within each a John Paul II recommended statement of faith “to pull wandering minds back to Christ and center them in the mystery.” Seven meditations tailored to each Mystery, to accompany your recitation of the Hail Marys (but only employ one at a time). A concluding short prayer asking God for the fruits specific to that Mystery. Plus much more, so that finally you can begin to pray the Rosary as Saint John Paul wants you to pray it!
