Prayer for the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary

Grant us, we beseech Thee, O Lord,
to be fittingly prepared for the offering of these gifts,
and through the Mysteries of the most Holy Rosary,
so to meditate upon the life,
Passion and glory of Thine only-begotten Son,
that we may be made worthy of His promises.
Who liveth and reigneth with God the Father,
in the unity of the Holy Ghost, one God,
world without end.
Amen.

“We can never sufficiently recommend the saying of the Rosary, not simply with the lips but with the attention of the soul to the divine truths, with a heart filled with love and gratitude.”

St. John XXIII

“By your work you show what you love and what you know. When you observe true obedience with prudence and enthusiasm, it is clear that you wisely pick the most delightful and nourishing fruit of divine Scripture.”

Today Jesus said to me, I desire that you know more profoundly the love that burns in My Heart for souls, and you will understand this when you meditate upon My Passion. Call upon My mercy on behalf of sinners; I desire their salvation. When you say this prayer, with a contrite heart and with faith on behalf of some sinner, I will give him the grace of conversion. This is the prayer: (Diary, 186)

“O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as fount of Mercy for us, I trust in You.” (Diary, 187)

∼

The graces of My mercy are drawn by means of one vessel only, and that is – trust. The more a soul trusts, the more it will receive. Souls that trust boundlessly are a great comfort to Me, because I pour all the treasures of My graces into them (Diary, 1578)

(From the Diary of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska, Divine Mercy in My Soul)
