The next day I started praying 4 rosaries a day for my wife with the intentions that she be blessed with happiness and love. The next day my wife started getting a lot better and as the weeks went by even better. I've been doing 3-4 Rosaries a day for her since and we are coming up on almost 9 months.

     I have never seen my wife so happy or have so much love and it is growing everyday. Even with her family disowning her for leaving Mormonism amd struggling with her belief in God.Thanks be to God and our Blessed Mothers intercession. She has been doing multiple Rosaries a day now as well and is feeling a draw to our Lady. She is enjoying Mass and going through OCIA with me for an Easter Baptism.

The Sorrowful Mysteries of the Holy Rosary

The First Sorrowful Mystery, The Agony in the Garden (Contrition) - 'For I say to you, that this that is written must yet be fulfilled in me: And with the wicked was he reckoned. For the things concerning me have an end. But they said: Lord, behold here are two swords. And he said to them, It is enough. And going out, he went, according to his custom, to the mount of Olives. And his disciples also followed him. And when he was come to the place, he said to them: Pray, lest ye enter into temptation. And he was withdrawn away from them a stone's cast; and kneeling down, he prayed, Saying: Father, if thou wilt, remove this chalice from me: but yet not my will, but thine be done. And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening him. And being in an agony, he prayed the longer. And his sweat became as drops of blood, trickling down upon the ground. And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow. And he said to them: Why sleep you? arise, pray, lest you enter into temptation. As he was yet speaking, behold a multitude; and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near to Jesus, for to kiss him. And Jesus said to him: Judas, dost thou betray the Son of man with a kiss? ' – (St Luke 22:37-48)

The Second Sorrowful Mystery, The Scourging at the Pillar (Purity) - 'Pilate therefore said to him: Art thou a king then? Jesus answered: Thou sayest that I am a king. For this was I born, and for this came I into the world; that I should give testimony to the truth. Every one that is of the truth, heareth my voice. Pilate saith to him: What is truth? And when he said this, he went out again to the Jews, and saith to them: I find no cause in him. But you have a custom that I should release one unto you at the pasch: will you, therefore, that I release unto you the king of the Jews? Then cried they all again, saying: Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber. THEN therefore, Pilate took Jesus, and scourged him. ' – (St John 18:37-40, 19:1)

The Third Sorrowful Mystery, The Crowning of Thorns (Courage) - 'And the soldiers platting a crown of thorns, put it upon his head; and they put on him a purple garment. And they came to him, and said: Hail, king of the Jews; and they gave him blows. Pilate therefore went forth again, and saith to them: Behold, I bring him forth unto you, that you may know that I find no cause in him. (Jesus therefore came forth, bearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment.) And he saith to them: Behold the Man. ' – (St John 19:2-5)

The Fourth Sorrowful Mystery, The Carrying of the Cross (Patience) - 'But they cried out: Away with him; away with him; crucify him. Pilate saith to them: Shall I crucify your king? The chief priests answered: We have no king but Caesar. Then therefore he delivered him to them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him forth. And bearing his own cross, he went forth to that place which is called Calvary, but in Hebrew Golgotha. ' – (St John 19:15-17)

The Fifth Sorrowful Mystery, The Crucifixion (Self Denial) - 'Where they crucified him, and with him two others, one on each side, and Jesus in the midst. And Pilate wrote a title also, and he put it upon the cross. And the writing was: JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS. This title therefore many of the Jews did read: because the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, in Greek, and in Latin. Now there stood by the cross of Jesus, his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalen. When Jesus therefore had seen his mother and the disciple standing whom he loved, he saith to his mother: Woman, behold thy son. After that, he saith to the disciple: Behold thy mother. And from that hour, the disciple took her to his own. ' – (St John 19:18-20,25-27) 'And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole earth until the ninth hour. And at the ninth hour, Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying: Eloi, Eloi, lamma sabacthani? Which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? And Jesus having cried out with a loud voice, gave up the ghost. And the veil of the temple was rent in two, from the top to the bottom. And the centurion who stood over against him, seeing that crying out in this manner he had given up the ghost, said: Indeed this man was the son of God. ' – (St Mark 15:33-34,37-39)

Our Father, Who art in heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy Will be done,
on earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. Amen.

Consueverunt Romani
Call to Prayer
Pope Pius V - 1569

The Roman Pontiffs, and the other Holy Fathers, our predecessors, when they were pressed in upon by temporal or spiritual wars, or troubled by other trials, in order that they might more easily escape from these, and having achieved tranquillity, might quietly and fervently be free to devote themselves to God, were wont to implore the divine assistance, through supplications or Litanies to call forth the support of the saints, and with David to lift up their eyes unto the Mountains, trusting with firm hope that thence would they receive aid.

1. Prompted by their example, and, as is piously believed, by the Holy Ghost, the inspired Blessed founder of the Order of Friars Preachers, (whose institutes and rule we ourselves expressly professed when we were in minor orders), in circumstances similar to those in which we now find ourselves, when parts of France and of Italy were unhappily troubled by the heresy of the Albegenses, which blinded so many of the worldly that they were raging most savagely against the priests of the Lord and the clergy, raised his eyes up unto heaven, unto that mountain of the Glorious Virgin Mary, loving Mother of God. For she by her seed has crushed the head of the twisted serpent, and has alone destroyed all heresies, and by the blessed fruit of her womb has saved a world condemned by the fall of our first parent. From her, without human hand, was that stone cut, which, struck by wood, poured forth the abundantly flowing waters of graces. And so Dominic looked to that simple way of praying and beseeching God, accessible to all and wholly pious, which is called the Rosary, or Psalter of the Blessed Virgin Mary, in which the same most Blessed Virgin is venerated by the angelic greeting repeated one hundred and fifty times, that is, according to the number of the Davidic Psalter, and by the Lord’s Prayer with each decade. Interposed with these prayers are certain meditations showing forth the entire life of Our Lord Jesus Christ, thus completing the method of prayer devised by the by the Fathers of the Holy Roman Church. This same method St. Dominic propagated, and it was, spread by the ??? Friars of Blessed Dominic, namely, of the aforementioned Order, and accepted by not a few of the people. Christ’s faithful, inflamed by these prayers, began immediately to be changed into new men. The darkness of heresy began to be dispelled, and the light of the Catholic Faith to be revealed. Sodalities for this form of prayer began to be instituted in many places by the Friars of the same Order, legitimately deputed to this work by their Superiors, and confreres began to be enrolled together.

2. Following the example of our predecessors, seeing that the Church militant, which God has placed in our hands, in these our times is tossed this way and that by so many heresies, and is grievously troubled troubled and afflicted by so many wars, and by the deprave morals of men, we also raise our eyes, weeping but full of hope, unto that same mountain, whence every aid comes forth, and we encourage and admonish each member of Christ’s faithful to do likewise in the Lord.

Given at Rome at St. Peter’s, under the Fisherman’s ring, 17 September 1569, in the fourth year of our Pontificate.
Dómine Jesu, dimitte nobis débita nostra, salva nos ab igne inferni; perduc in caelum omnes ánimas, praesertim eas, quae misericórdiae tuae máxime indigent.

Best thing Ive read today. God Bless you and your family.

The Rosary is one of the most beautiful traditions of the Catholic Church. God led me into the Orthodox Church but I love my Catholic brothers and sisters. When I see hate and heresy reviled at the Church I find it truly disgusting.

For the children and families of Annunciation Catholic Church in Minneapolis and all victims of leftist ideology and violence everywhere.

Wherefore I beg you, entertain holy thoughts, live zealous and holy lives, take part in the blessing [Eucharist] which, believe me, dispels not only death but also all diseases. For Christ, when He abides in us, calms the raging law of our members, strengthens our piety, quells disturbances of spirit. He does not consider the sinful state in which we are, but heals the sick, restores the broken and, like the good shepherd who laid down his life for the sheep, He raises us up from every misfortune. - Saint Cyril, 5th century

For Christ, when He abides in us, calms the raging law of our members, strengthens our piety, quells disturbances of spirit. He does not consider the sinful state in which we are, but heals the sick, restores the broken and, like the good shepherd who laid down his life for the sheep, He raises us up from every misfortune. - Saint Cyril, 5th century

Amen to both you and St Cyril of Alexandria's quote, Gullskjegg.

My granddaughters started fifth and sixth grade respectively at their parochial school on Tuesday. Since the shooting I have been very worried about their first school Mass which will be tomorrow, Friday 8/29.

I was relieved to hear from our daughter this afternoon that their parochial school will have local police at the Mass.

Lord have mercy.
Before Abraham was, I am. John 8:58

When I first left Mormonism, Daniel's Channel was one of the first that I found. I went through almost his entire library before studying Catholicism. He definitely has a lot of issues with Catholicism and has a lot of videos on it. Im glad to see that Joe is responding to him and hope he does more. God Bless

That's great to hear, it's definitely good to hear all sides and make an educated decision instead of an emotional one.  It's amazing to me now, how obvious the theological blinders are in regards to these protestant apologists, and how looking back I couldn't see the truth when I had them either.  It's like this cascade of misinterpretations that unravels the entire thing and you end up having to do all these linguistic gymnastics and create logical fallacies to back up this weird contorted view of Christianity.  

Agreed, Joe does a great job.

In seeking the deepest roots of the struggle between the "culture of life" and the "culture of death", we cannot restrict ourselves to the perverse idea of freedom mentioned above. We have to go to the heart of the tragedy being experienced by modern man: the eclipse of the sense of God and of man, typical of a social and cultural climate dominated by secularism, which, with its ubiquitous tentacles, succeeds at times in putting Christian communities themselves to the test. Those who allow themselves to be influenced by this climate easily fall into a sad vicious circle: when the sense of God is lost, there is also a tendency to lose the sense of man, of his dignity and his life; in turn, the systematic violation of the moral law, especially in the serious matter of respect for human life and its dignity, produces a kind of progressive darkening of the capacity to discern God's living and saving presence. - Pope John Paul II (EVANGELIUM VITAE)

Salve Regina
Hail, holy Queen, Mother of mercy, our life, our sweetness and our hope. To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve. To thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley of tears. Turn, then, most gracious advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us, and after this, our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.

Pray for us, O holy Mother of God.

That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

Let us pray. Almighty and everlasting God, Who by the working of the Holy Spirit didst prepare both body and soul of the glorious Virgin Mother, Mary, that she might deserve to be made a worthy dwelling for Thy Son, grant that we who rejoice in her memory, may, by her loving intercession, be delivered from present evils and from lasting death, through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.


Te Deum Patrem ingenitum
Thou, God the unbegotten Father,
thou, the only begotten Son,
and thou Holy Spirit, the Comforter,
the holy and undivided Trinity,
with all our heart and mouths we confess thee,
we praise thee, and bless thee;
to thee be glory for ever.


Magnificat
My soul doth magnify the Lord,
And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour
Because He hath regarded the humility of his handmaid: for behold from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
Because He that is mighty hath done great things to me, and holy is His name.
And His mercy is from generation unto generations to them that fear Him.
He hath shewed might in His arm: He hath scattered the proud in the conceit of their heart.
He hath put down the mighty from their seat, and hath exalted the humble.
He hath filled the hungry with good things, and the rich He hath sent empty away.
He hath received Israel His servant, being mindful of His mercy.
As He spoke to our fathers; to Abraham and his seed forever.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
As it was in the beginning is now, and ever shall be, forever and ever. Amen.


Benedicat nos Deus
God bless us,
our God,
God bless us
and may all the ends of the earth fear him.
May God have mercy on us
and bless us.
God bless us,
our God,
God bless us
and may all the ends of the earth fear him.

Today the Church celebrates the Feast of The Holy Rosary.  The rosary is a meditative prayer of the life, death, and resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ through the eyes of His mother; ending with her being reunited with Him in heaven, just as we all hope to be.

Just got word his wife had a stroke today as well.  I don't know what that means in this context, but genetically this disease is from the maternal side.

My new favorite way to pray the Rosary is using a $10 Kindle book from Amazon displayed on my computer screen.  I usually read along at my own pace, but I have also played Fr Mark Mary saying the Rosary on YouTube while reading the Kindle book, pressing the Page Down button (or the mouse) to turn pages .  It has a new picture for each Hail Mary and Glory be to the Father.

Meditating on the mystery is easier and enhanced by the art.

I set Kindle to Two columns, Wide Format, Font six on the scale, and black background. Sometimes it takes a bit of tweaking the settings to get it to display properly.

Here are few samples.

I forgot to mention, it also looks wonderful on an iPad and iPhone.  It is complete so even if you don't have a Rosary with you, you can pray it right from the book.

Here are screenshots from my iPad:

Outstanding. I wonder if Piglet would be able to use this.  We took him to Mass once and he still hasn’t quit making the sign of the cross, blessing meals, etc.  He clearly loved it.

We continue our prayer intentions for Piglet and his mama, the whole family, they have just taken her back to the hospital due to possibly another stroke.  The man of the house is struggling as well to keep all of this together and provide for them at the same time.  He is a good man in a tough spot.
