New! Our Lady of the Holy Rosary - Holy Cards – by Sue Kouma Johnson – pack of 10/100/1000

Set of 10 or 100 or 1000 holy cards, measuring 2.75 x 4.25 inches each. Good, matte-finish card stock. A beautiful prayer by Pope Saint John Paul II is on the back.

The purpose of the rosary is to help us meditate on the great mysteries of our salvation. Pius XII called it a compendium of the gospel. The main focus is on Jesus—his birth, life, death, and resurrection. The Our Fathers remind us that Jesus’ Father is the initiator of salvation. The Hail Marys remind us to join with Mary in contemplating these mysteries. They also make us aware that Mary was and is intimately joined with her Son in all the mysteries of his earthly and heavenly existence. The Glory Bes remind us that the purpose of all life is the glory of the Trinity.

The rosary appeals to many. It is simple. The constant repetition of words helps create an atmosphere in which to contemplate the mysteries of God. We sense that Jesus and Mary are with us in the joys and sorrows of life. We grow in hope that God will bring us to share in the glory of Jesus and Mary forever.

The Feast of the Holy Rosary is October 7.
