Author Description

"The Holy Rosary by Catholic Way Publishing: " Publisher: Kindle E-Book Edition: ISBN-13: 978-1-78379-035-7 The rosary (from Latin rosarium, meaning "Crown of Roses" or "garland of roses") is a Roman Catholic sacramental and Marian devotion to prayer and the commemoration of Jesus Christ and events of his life. Throughout centuries, the rosary has been promoted by several popes as part of the veneration of Mary. The rosary also represents the Roman Catholic emphasis on "participation in the life of Mary, whose focus was Christ," and the Mariological theme "to Christ through Mary," taught by Saint Louis de Montfort. Included in this little book are Meditations on the 20 mysteries of the Holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary; The Joyful mysteries, the Sorrowful mysteries, the Glorious mysteries and the Luminous mysteries. These Meditations are based on the Douay-Rheims Bible. Accompanied to each decade is an illustration and certain Maxims pertinent to that mystery. There is also an in-depth History of the origins and promulgation of the Rosary through the centuries. "Publisher: " Catholic Way Publishing. This Paperback is the ideal small size of 5" x 8."
