October – Month of the Rosary
This Thursday, we enter the month of October, traditionally the month dedicated to Our Lady of the Rosary. The Rosary developed in the High Middle Ages period and the reason that October came to be devoted to its recitation is primarily because the liturgical feast of Our Lady of the Rosary is celebrated annually on 7th October. The Rosary is a wonderful prayer for us to say, praying to Our Lord for protection from all danger, sickness and evil. If you need help in saying the Rosary, click below for a simple explanation. I’d like to encourage you to say the Rosary each day this month. I have the Rosary as audio files on my phone, which means in my car I can pray the Rosary while driving. Click the link below to download the audio files for use in your car or around the home. There are many intentions this month, especially for peace in Ukraine and an end to war in the Middle East.
