Rosary for Peace endorses Rick Santorum for President 2012

"[I]t is imperative that the entire Catholic community in the United States come to realize the grave threats to the Church's public moral witness presented by a radical secularism which finds increasing expression in the political and cultural spheres...The seriousness of these threats needs to be clearly appreciated at every level of ecclesial life." --Pope Benedict XVI

Quotes


Jesus crucifiedWhen Jesus saw His mother and the disciple there whom He loved, he said to His mother, 'Woman, behold your son.' Then He said to the disciple, 'Behold, your mother.' And from that hour the disciple took her into his home. --John 19:26-27

Pope BenedictThe Holy Rosary is not a pious practice banished to the past, like prayers of other times thought of with nostalgia. Instead, the Rosary is experiencing a new Springtime. Without a doubt, this is one of the most eloquent signs of love that the young generation nourish for Jesus and his Mother, Mary. In the current world, so dispersive, this prayer helps to put Christ at the centre, as the Virgin did, who meditated within all that was said about her Son, and also what he did and said. When reciting the Rosary, the important and meaningful moments of salvation history are relived. --Pope Benedict XVI

Padre PioSome people are so foolish that they think they can go through life without the help of the Blessed Mother. Love the Madonna and pray the rosary, for her rosary is the weapon against the evils of the world today. All graces given by God pass through the Blessed Mother. --St. Padre Pio

[I]f people fail to say the Hail Mary ... out of carelessness, or because they are lukewarm, or because they hate it, this is a sign that they will probably and indeed shortly be condemned to eternal punishment. --St Louis de Montfort quoting Blessed Alan de la Roche, The Secret of the Rosary.

Oh, no! I threw some holy water at her and the apparition made the sign of the cross. She told me, "I am the Immaculate Conception," and said the rosary with me. --St. Bernadette

Even if you are on the brink of damnation, even if you have one foot in Hell, even if you have sold your soul to the devil ... sooner or later you will be converted and will amend your life and save your soul, if--and mark well what I say--if you say the Holy Rosary devoutly every day until death for the purpose of knowing the truth and obtaining contrition and pardon for your sins. --St. Louis de Montfort The Secret of the Rosary.

It's a terrible thing to admit, but saying the Rosary takes it out of me more than any hair shirt ... Try as I will, I cannot meditate on the mysteries of the Rosary. I just cannot fix my mind on them. --St. Therese of Lisieux, Story of a Soul.

No one can live continually in sin and continue to say the Rosary: either they will give up sin or they will give up the Rosary. --Bishop Hugh Doyle

They think I'm a saint... When I'm dead, they'll come and touch holy pictures and rosaries to me, and all the while I'll be getting broiled on a grill in purgatory. At least promise me you'll pray a lot for the repose of my soul. --St. Bernadette

When people love and recite the Rosary they find it makes them better. --St. Anthony Mary Claret

The Most Holy Virgin in these last times in which we live has given a new efficacy to the recitation of the Rosary to such an extent that there is no problem, no matter how difficult it is, whether temporal or above all spiritual, in the personal life of each one of us, of our families that cannot be solved by the Rosary. There is no problem, I tell you, no matter how difficult it is, that we cannot resolve by the prayer of the Holy Rosary. --Sister Lucia dos Santos, Fatima seer

'Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee!' No creature has ever said anything that was more pleasing to me, nor will anyone ever be able to find or say to me anything that pleases me more. --Our Lady to Saint Mechtilde

[S]uddenly...and strangely, I found myself repeating the Hail Mary until it became a chant. As a recent convert to Catholicism, I had yet to accept the Catholic doctrines concerning Mary, and considered [them] to be idolatry. Though I had never prayed a Hail Mary before in my life, I now found myself incapable of any other form of prayer. --Bobby Jindal, "Bobby Jindal's story about demons and spiritual warfare"

    15 Promises of the Rosary

    Besides the Indulgences attached to the Rosary, Our Lady revealed to St. Dominic and Blessed Alan de la Roche additional benefits for those who devoutly pray the Rosary. Note that the Rosary is the prayer (non-Liturgical) with the most published Magisterial / Papal documents expounding on its excellence. Vatican II's summary on Our Lady is contained in Lumen Gentium chapter VIII.

  • Whosoever shall faithfully serve me by the recitation of the Rosary shall receive signal graces.
  • I promise my special protection and the greatest graces to all those who shall recite the Rosary.
  • The Rosary shall be a powerful armor against hell, it will destroy vice, decrease sin and defeat heresies
  • It will cause good works to flourish; it will obtain for souls the abundant mercy of God; it will withdraw the hearts of men from the love of the world and its vanities, and will lift them to the desire for Eternal Things. Oh, that souls would sanctify themselves by this means.
  • The soul which recommends itself to me by the recitation of the Rosary shall not perish.
  • Whosoever shall recite the Rosary devoutly, applying himself to the consideration of its Sacred Mysteries shall never be conquered by misfortune. God will not chastise him in His justice, he shall not perish by an unprovided death; if he be just he shall remain in the grace of God, and become worthy of Eternal Life.
  • Whoever shall have a true devotion for the Rosary shall not die without the Sacraments of the Church.
  • Those who are faithful to recite the Rosary shall have during their life and at their death the Light of God and the plenitude of His Graces; at the moment of death they shall participate in the Merits of the Saints in Paradise.
  • I shall deliver from purgatory those who have been devoted to the Rosary.
  • The faithful children of the Rosary shall merit a high degree of Glory in Heaven.
  • You shall obtain all you ask of me by recitation of the Rosary.
  • All those who propagate the Holy Rosary shall be aided by me in their necessities.
  • I have obtained from my Divine Son that all the advocates of the Rosary shall have for intercessors the entire Celestial Court during their life and at the hour of death.
  • All who recite the Rosary are my Sons, and brothers of my Only Son Jesus Christ.
  • Devotion to my Rosary is a great sign of predestination.
  • Reminder: these promises mean that, by faithfully and devoutly praying the Rosary, Our Lady will obtain for us the necessary Graces to obtain said promises. It is still up to each individual soul to respond to those Graces in order to obtain salvation.
