Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary, pray for us!
From the Office of Readings of the Liturgy of the Hours:
This commemorative feast was established by St. Pius V on the anniversary of the naval victory by the Christian fleet at Lepanto. The victory was attributed to the help of the holy Mother of God whose aid was invoked through praying the rosary. The celebration of this day invites all to meditate upon the mysteries of Christ, following the example of the Blessed Virgin Mary who was so singularly associated with the incarnation, passion and glorious resurrection of the Son of God.
Prayer
Lord, fill our hearts with your love,
and as you revealed to us by an angel
the coming of your Son as man,
so lead us through his suffering and death
to the glory of his resurrection,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Peace be with you!
Rosemarie, OCDS
