The Origin of the Holy Rosary.

ST DOMINIC RECEIVED THE HOLY ROSARY FROM OUR BLESSED MOTHER MARY.

At this serious time of Threat to Christianity in Europe Lived a Spanish priest named Dominic Guzman.

Fr Dominic later became known as Saint Dominic, founder of the "DOMINICAN" order of preacher still in existence today.

In the year 1208, Fr. Dominic was traveling the southern french country side preaching the truth of Christianity to the Cathars Albigenses, but mostly with rejection and insult.

The Saint prayed fervently and a remedy for this failure to influence them.

Then Mary appeared to him with the following message:

WONDER not that you have obtained so little fruit by your labour! You have spent them on a barran soil, not yet watered with the dew of divine grace. When God willed to renew the face of the earth.

He began by sending down on it The fertilizer rain of the Angelic Salutation. Therefore, preach my psalter composed of 150 angelic salutations and 15 our Fathers, and you will obtain an abundant harvest.

Mary taught Dominic a specific method for preaching the Christian truth of salvation according to the mysteries of the Incarnation later known as the Rosary's (Joyful mysteries) Redemption (The Sorrowful mysteries) and Eternal life (The Glorious mysteries)

After giving the people a short teaching and reflection. On each of the mysteries, Dominic would then lead them in reciting ten Hail Marys.

The Blessed Virgin Mary revealed to St. Dominic that this form of prayer be one of the most powerful weapons against future errors and difficulties.

The following words were also attributed to Mary "one day, through the rosary and the scapula; I will save the world".

St. Dominic upon returning to the french Cather's Albigenses, preached compellingly that almost every one renounced their false beliefs, embraced this new form of prayer, and lived good Christian lives.

St. Dominic preach in the way For the rest of his life, and founded the confraternity of prayer, kind of "brotherhood" whose members prayed the Marian psalter daily.

And so, Holy Church tradition has upheld that the blessed Virgin Mary entrusted St. Dominic with receiving the devotion at her most Holy Rosary and giving it to the Church.

Listening Ears of the Laity to the Priest on the Pulpit

Listening Ears of the Laity to the Priest on the Pulpit. Edited by Raphael Arinze Sometimes, I always ponder why those who are called Christians always behave like pegans; like unbelievers. What is happening? And what could be the cause? When Christians are supposed to be the light to the whole, salts of the earth....., As Jesus Christ put it for us. Despite all the provisions and equipment, made available in a spiritual realm to keep us going, no matter any circumstances and derived demand to traits our minds back forward. Our live as Christians don't align with the demands of a Christian call. Let us face it. Christians are made to always represent Christ all places in everywhere as the case maybe.
