I bought a booklet "How to Pray the Rosary without distruction" ❤ now i am trying to pray all 4 rosary a day plus 7 sorrows of mary and Divine Mercy I hope i can do this until i die ❤❤❤ I love Jesus and Mary soooo much ❤

hello I'm Italian, many times we do the rosary after mass, but it is done too quickly, without contemplating the mysteries. the true meaning of the rosary is lost, sometimes I do it at home slowly and lovingly and it gives me peace and serenity

“And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him." Matthew 6

I started to pray the rosary out of curiosity. I grew up protestant and I wanted to learn to meditate (long story). Breath counting and so on only made me MAD! I hated it. I had a vague notion of what the “rosary beads” were, but, protestants actually have no idea about any Catholic ways. I looked up an mp3 recording of the rosary and when I heard the Apostles Creed I almost fell down. Each utterance was SO POWERFUL! This led to Saint Louis de Montfort’s “Secret of the Rosary”. The rosary has changed my life! I went to a chapel to pray the rosary with the Faithful, for more power. This led to the Holy Mass. I just can’t tell you guys what this means. Traditional Catholicism is TRUE! I’ve been looking for this ALL MY LIFE! FINALLY! FINALLY! Now Christianity makes sense! It’s the most mind boggling thing that there is! There’s no end to this!

This week, the image of her belt and her white robe.

The Rosary continually has depth as we pray it in a more personal way by 'being there' through scripture🙏🤍❤️

Something else that I find fruitful, and life changing, is praying all 20 Mysteries of the Rosary in a day. Praying 4 Rosaries a day has really helped me grow in love for God overcome serious temptations. I highly recommend slowly working your way up to it. It’s difficult but extremely fruitful. I also recommend the Seven Sorrows Rosary as it is very beautiful and fruitful. A good devotion to Our Lady of Sorrows is very powerful, and terrifying to the Devil.

I highly recommend praying the "scriptural rosary." This is the old way it was prayed in the Middle ages years ago. Small biblical drawings would accompany the rosary which would keep you meditating on scripture as you went through the hail Marys. Those small drawings have been replaced by a little pieces of scripture placed between each hail Mary that reflect back on each mystery. It has done wonders for my Rosary. I found this small blue book at my local Catholic bookstore called "the scriptural rosary" and bought it on a whim.

Thank you Fr. I am in my 50's and have always struggled with having dedication to the Rosary. I go through spurts and have at times even spent a couple of years with daily rosary. But I have struggled. You have opened my eyes to see that it is because I have just been reciting it. I think I've always known this though, and I have purchased several books, and scriptural rosary guides and have used them in order to overcome my struggle, but I still have struggled and I could never truly understand how to overcome it. I now understand that I've never developed 'form'. This makes so much sense to me. Thank you for the permission to use 15 minutes a day, not being concerned as to whether or not I finish, but to focus on the form. I will use 20 for that has always seemed to be my timing. I know this will help, because of how it has spoken to my heart. Thank you again, for the permission.

There are days that it isn’t until Ave Maria #53 that the deep meaning really hits me, as if all the ones leading up to that were preparation.

When I pray the rosary- I focus on the fruits of the mystery and reflect how I’m showing up in my life in regards to this and sit with this moment of the mystery. “For joyful” I pray for compassion for others, obedience, faithfulness and apologize for the lack of these things on my end and it helps me stay focused when I’m saying the Fatima O My Jesus prayer. Helps for me to be in motion while praying I.e walking around my house or even rocking in a chair and closing my eyes. 🙏🏻🕊we’re in this journey together! ✨

I admit I’ve fallen into the habit of just doing the rosary as a means of checking it off the list for the day but this is very helpful!

I love praying the rosary, I started when I was 13yo and it became a habit. Sometimes, i will pray the whole mystery (Joyful,sorrowful,luminous, Glorious) in one day. Now, my 13yo daughter started praying the rosary with me everyday. Thank you Mama Mary for your protection and graces.

Thank you Fr. I needed to hear this.

Praying the rosary is truly a gift. The rosary will walk us through the life of Christ with our mother Mary taking us on a beautiful journey saying the mysteries of the rosary♥️🙏

I could never say the Rosary throughout my life. I am 67. I would pray with our class in school, but when I was in Church at a daily Mass ( as an adult ) some people would stay afterwards to say the Rosary. They said it so fast, they might as well have been reciting the alphabet. So I didn’t bother with that. If I said it on my own, I couldn’t say the Hail Marys and meditate at the same time. It would be a 2 hour extravaganza! So I just gave up. I was very encouraged to read that St.Therese of Liseaux also had difficulty saying the Rosary. This upset her very much because she had a great devotion to Our Lady. Then KZread cane along and I started to say the Rosary along with the Kate and Mike Crusade. What a difference and what a joy! I think that if St. Therese had had access to such a resource, she would have been able to say the Rosary as well. And only 20 minutes.

We have started a small group, for praying the Rosary online. We are just 6 of us, who usually struggle with praying the Rosary. As we pray for others, the group members are also finding miracles in their lives. So daily Mass, Rosary and Divine Mercy is my daily minimum, Praise God. Thanks for video message.

The Divine Mercy book helped me pray the rosary. Sister Faustina's Diary explains the mysteries of the rosary in some of her comments in the book. However, I learned the rosary as a little girl and prayed it daily after meals along with my grand mother; and I also ask for the Grace to pray the rosary properly. Many of the You Tube videos are also helpful as they have commentaries about each fruit of the mystery and the images help as well to focus. Thank you for your reminder not to sacrifice form. You are right. God Bless You. Please pray for F. Parker and for F. Altman who are denounced by their Bishops for preaching the Truth of God's Word. These Bishops also need prayers. God Bless you. Thank you. Amen.

I live in an apartment building, it has a little nice private garden. During the terrible time at beginning of the pandemic I put up signs by the mail boxes so everybody could read both English and Spanish, to get together, just on Fridays at 3pm to pray the rosary. Nobody showed up. I went 2 or 3 Fridays, I prayed by myself walking around the little garden procession like but I stopped. Jesus said Where there is more than one...and it is true, for the rosary too. I go to first Saturday of month, past the 5 the Holy Mother asked in Fatima. After Mass a group stay and the rosary is prayed. Still... I pray, beg for devotion, I don't have it eludes me.

Something that I find extremely fruitful is mental prayer. Before praying a decade, I imagine the Mystery happening right in front of me. I talk with those who are in the scene and offer the Lord time to speak to me (obviously don’t limit Him to that time, let Him speak to you at all times). Then I do the Our Father and 10 Hail Mary’s. I struggle with that a lot, but the Saints say mental prayer is EXTREMELY important.

Wow! Glory to Jesus... honour to Mary

I pray the Rosary 3 times a day, morning, noon and in the evening. One of them is in Latin, (the devil hates Latin) I will join a Rosary in process. One day a group of nuns were praying on the bus, so I joined them.

Indeed! The Rosary is a true joy to say when you begin by offering it to The Father, for the Souls in Purgatory who are so in need of the Rosary to be said. Offering the Rosary for family, friends, neighbours, colleagues, people who have gone astray, for people who do not believe in God, for the sick,for the unborn Children whose lives may be in danger. A little bit of abstainance, sacrifice and fasting while offering prayers to the Lord will be most pleasing to him and will nourish and bring fulfillment to the Soul. Mother Mary pray for us. Sweet Heart of Jesus we thee implore...oh make us love thee...more and more.

I pray the Rosary in French. I am a Spanish heritage speaker and speak English. However, I am a French teacher and love how praying the Rosary in French is so beautiful. I get less distracted because I am concentrating in every word I am saying in French. I always thank God for having the Rosary in different languages so that we may feel connected to Him.

That's interesting I can concentrate better when I recite the Rosary in the Irish / Gaelic language - my second language.

I have witnessed firsthand how praying 3-4 Rosaries a day has completely transformed my life. Mother Mary made 15 promises to those who pray the FULL ROSARY (which is the Joyful, Sorrowful, and Glorious mysteries all in one day. The Luminous Mysteries were added after Mary's original promise to St. Dominic). I highly recommend googling "The 15 Promises of the Rosary" to learn more. Praying 3 to 4 Rosaries every day may seem like a lot at first, but I recommend spacing them out throughout the day (in the morning, in the afternoon, before bed). God Bless!

Ha ha ha! That happens when I pray to God, too.

Praying the rosary has brought me closer to Mary and Jesus.

It’s been a daily habit/routine for me to pray the rosary in mornings (the 5 decades of the mystery of the day, Saturday& Monday joyful mystery Tuesday &Friday sorrowful mystery and so on…) somedays at 3:00 pm the Divine Mercy. Then rosary again before bedtime (also the mystery of that day) somedays between the rosaries I read/ recite psalms to study them by heart.

Best thing I’ve read: Mary is truly humble. She lived her life in service to our Lord. Even if you think you are praying TO her, she never keeps any praise or attention but always gives it to Christ. This is why we focus on the life of Jesus during the rosary-she is always leading us closer to her Son. She prays with us. I think it was Bishop Sheen who said when her prayers join with ours, how much more beautiful our prayers! If even the rosary is too much, just pray Hail Marys during the day. Thank you Father for such a lovely video.

When I first started praying the rosary I didn't understand a lot about the decades and so I felt my prayer wasn't all that meaningful. Your suggestion to read the scripture that the mysteries reference and to meditate on that is very helpful in understanding them more. Thank you so much for this video.

Here are my rosary steps. I first ask saint Michael to build a protective shield around me as I only want to fill my heart with the love of Christ through Mary. Then I ask Mary to be the way to connect to Christ’s love, peace and joy that will remove all bad elements from me. Then I start the rosary. I usually thank her for the graces I got from the prayer instead of asking for graces. This makes the whole praying time so much more joyful.

This is very timely!! You have brought me back to one of my favorite prayers . . . . I’ve been away (4 years) much too long since I broke my habit of PRAYING the Rosary daily!!! I say, “PRAY THE ROSARY “, NOT, “SAY THE ROSARY!! Meditating on the mystery is where I received many sanctifying graces!! There’s a tremendous joy welling up inside me even as I type this out!! Thank you so very much, Fr. Mark-Mary for this video!!!

I say the rosary everyday with scripture for each decade which makes me concentrate on the mysteries I love it and I do get distracted and sometimes the devil works on me by making me sleepy Praise to you for your sharing

I’m publishing a weekly KZread video on episodes from the life of Don Bosco, entitled ST JOHN BOSCO by JOE ZAMMIT. In this series I’m narrating events and miracles from the splendid life of Don Bosco. St John Bosco used to perform a miracle almost every day, through the intercession of Mary Help of Christians. From the lives of saints we can learn how to love God more and draw closer to him. Thank you.

HOW DID YOU KNOW! Also, You have an art in expressing an analogy. As a non-Catholic …Yelp, I overworked the muscles and jumped into praying the 54-day Rosary Novena (3rd time around) now I’m practicing the Hail Mary in Latin…HELP!!!

While reciting the Hail Mary's, I would imagine the mystery each decade represents. I use the films I see on you tube or past movies for my closed eyes imagery. It helps.

Your video is exactly what I have needed today🙏🏻THANK U🙏🏻

I view Rosary like a medicine for the soul. I am taking Clandex for fatty liver. I did not stop eating fatty foods. But in spite of that, my fatty liver lessened because of the medicine. I think the same way about the Rosary. I am a sinful person but at least I’m trying to fight sin and depression. So my analogy is eventhough I am sinning, with Rosary, it helps me to lessen sin. I am in no ways perfect. Or have an ideal character like the saints who are pure in heart and soul. So in an ideal world, like in battling fatty liver, I will take medication and stop eating fatty foods. But since I am frail and weak. I still do the sin that I don’t want to. In spite of that, the Blessed Virgin Mary is helping me in fighting sin.

Try choline and milk thistle for the liver too. And fasting.

I printed out Ven. Sheen's meditations on the Rosary and I read them while praying the Hail Marys

Wow!!! I just watched your video from a year ago on praying a better Rosary..so i put some of the suggestions into action today...and i check the video for today ( i always check on friday afternoon) and as God would have it another video about praying the rosary. Thank you God thank you Jesus its just what i neeed.

4 rosaries a day is the sweet spot. 20 decades is easier than you might think and suffices all the mysteries and bestows 4x the graces.

I first saying the rosary on Saturdays only. I forgot the other mysteries. And only said joyful. Sorrowful mysteries made me cry. I tried meditation on mysteries but spent way too long on it. It was faithful but eating my emotions. So then, luminous mysteries started. I started saying them with best friend. 3 years ago my mom remarried and moves. My son got bad concussion.. started praying every day without medication with bible. Now I can medicate saying the rosary read scriptures while saying rosary. I am saying pray just pray it makes everything better

FINALLY a suggestion on how to get started, that I can do without feeling overwhelmed... a way to practice focusing and holding my own attention. Thank you, Father Mark!!!

I you are praying constantly you are constantly free of temptation.

day & night............... rosary, amen!

Really great information! I generally would feel agitated when praying the rosary with others who were rushing through it and there was little emotion in the prayers, as if it was just another thing on the to-do list. My bad, my husband felt judged and criticized, I wish I’d never done that to him. At least he was praying a rosary with me. He stopped and it took a lot for me to forgive myself for judging and trying to “fix him.” Oddly enough, I went back to my Scriptural Rosary booklet I’ve had for ages and it has a scripture for each each Hail Mary specific to the mystery of the decade. What did I discover? Pure joy!! My mind stays focused and doesn’t have time to wander because I’m thinking about the scripture while praying the Hail Mary. What else did I discover? When I’m completely immersed in the present moment the rosary goes by so fast I’m like, “Wow, where did the time go?!!” Scriptural Rosary is fabulous and brought me deep meditation as if I’m right there when this all was happening over 2,000 years ago. Much love to you, Friar!! Thank you for this video! 🙏♥️

Great advice Father. So many thoughts... My suggestion to those starting out is to read The Secret of the Rosary by St. Louis De Montfort. Next, if you aren’t familiar with the scriptures that each Mystery is drawn from read read read. Having those images in your mind helps with distractions and refocusing. You can also break it up through out the day. A decade or two when you wake lunch bed etc. Pray with your entire family. Call upon your guardian Angel for help with distracting thoughts, we know they pray with us every time. Trust in the promises of Our Lady. If you are in a state of mortal sin get to confession and I find it helpful to pray the rosary in addition to whatever penance assigned. We know that sadly many do not believe in the real presence of Jesus in the Eucharist. Spend time in Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament when you get the chance.

Thank for this video. I started the habit of the rosary once a day about four years ago. No one ever guided me through how to really pray the rosary and connect to God through each of the mysteries in the rosary. 😊

Thank you Father.

Best advice ever! Some people can’t sit still physically or mentally for a whole rosary. I had to start with a decade thought the day. Each decade only takes about 3 minutes. One decade 5x a day = a whole rosary. Also, I try to go to Mass (weekday or Sunday) 15 minutes early to pray the rosary. Also, a one-decade rosary (Tenner) can make praying the rosary seem easier.

The more you pray the Rosary, the more you'll want to take your time...30 mins is a good pace. Light a candle; assemble a small home altar...to start, dollar stores have great buys on crosses & small pictures of Our Lady and/or the Holy Family, and flowers. Nothing fancy is necessary, just a focal point.
