Traditional vs New Rosary

Blessed Alan de La Roche was a Dominican friar and priest who lived during the 15th Century. He was an eminent theologian and was famous for his sermons. Blessed Alan was chosen by the our dearest Lord and the Blessed Mother to promote once again the prayerful recitation of the Most Holy Rosary after many if not most of the faithful had neglected to pray it for more than a century. It was most appropriate that a spiritual son of St. Dominic should be chosen for such a great work. Blessed Alan began his holy mission in 1460 after a special warning from Our Lord, Who wished to spur him on to preach the Holy Rosary. The Son of God and Son of Mary literally spoke to Blessed Alan from the Sacred Host during the Sacrifice of the Mass. Our Lord asked His chosen priest: How can you crucify Me again so soon? Blessed Alan responded: What did You say, Lord? Jesus answered: You crucified Me once before by your sins and I would willingly be crucified again rather than have My Father offended by the sins you used to commit. You are crucifying Me again now because you have all the learning and understanding that you need to preach My Mother's Rosary, and you are not doing so. This terrible reproach of our Lord aimed at Blessed Alan, caused the Dominican Friar to resolve solemnly to preach the Rosary unceasingly for the rest of his earthly life. Blessed Alan did not seek to change the Rosary. He did not add novelties to the prayer or increase the number of mysteries, nor did he seek to subtract prayers or shorten existing ones. He simply reintroduced the Holy Rosary to a people that had forgotten this very powerful prayer. But the liturgical revolution that radically changed the Holy Mass of the Latin Rite would become a revolution against simple piety that would eventually infect the Rosary. We were told by liturgical reformers that the Old Mass was lacking…that it needed to be updated and reformed…that it didn’t meet the needs of modern man. We are now told that the Traditional form of the Rosary was not as Christological…not as Christ-centered as it ought to be…that it required new mysteries that would enlighten and illuminate those stuck in the Middle Ages. And so, we are led to believe that the Holy Rosary, given by our Blessed Mother to St. Dominic was somehow defective and needed to be reformed and updated. What we need is not novelties but rather a man like Blessed Alan to preach the traditional form of the Rosary. For more please visit www.reginaproph... & remember to say 3 Hail Marys for the priest

During the religious persecution in Ireland ,when Priests were hunted down and killed ,and the people were deprived of Mass,the Rosary is what kept the Faith alive ,it was called The Dry Mass.

[@natelloyd4796]

A Dry Mass is actually a different devotion, which involves saying the prayers of the Mass except for the offertory and Canon. Certainly, the Rosary was also crucial in maintaining the faith in times of persecution.

Actually the original Hail Mary was the second part only. Then the angelic salutation was added. The Holy Name of Jesus was also added some time later. So the Hail Mary actually changed over time to what it is now. These changes were ratified by Church Authorities whose authority Our Lady respects (which is why she always told visionaries to go to their priests or bishops (St Bernadette, Fatima, Juan Diego etc). So please don’t think the rosary just dropped down from heaven as is and that humans can’t be led by the Holy Spirit to help put these things together (the holy bible is a case in point) Even the beautiful decade prayer ‘Oh my Jesus’ was added after 1917. And regarding historical proof of Mary even non-Christian historians of Jesus’ time acknowledge her in their ancient writings so claiming she didn’t exist is simply ridiculous. And pointless.

Im 62 I’m a Catholic convert from the Presbyterian and Episcopal churches. I converted in 2010. I was a college freshman when I went to see Pope John Paul ll speak during his visit to Philadelphia back in 1980. I still remember his sermon on morality. I will say this concerning the Rosary. Popes are elected according to the Holy Spirit and whatever they decree on matters of faith is divine guidance from the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is part of the Trinity and is God Himself also. Therefore, if a change was made to the Rosary by the Pope, it was made under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Such was the case if the addition of the Luminous Mysteries. I see nothing wrong with such a change. With all due respect to Blessed Mother Mary, God is still allowed to will as He pleases.

[@fidelisetverus]

It's not the perfection of your action that God wants but the use of your God given "free will" to "act" in a manner that is pleasing to Him regardless of its imperfections. It's pleasing to God to see that you're willing to try over and over again until you get it right just to make it right for Him. Love is truly measured in your actions. "Ask and you shall receive, seek and you shall find, knock and it shall be opened to you." So do it; keep asking God in humble prayers everyday and one day it will be given to you. Believe as you pray. PAX 🕊🙏

[@johnsposato5632]

I read meditations on each mystery as I pray them. That helps me enormously.

[@maureensullivan8898]

​@@johnsposato5632The meditations on the mysteries are such a gift. Not only does reading the meditations prevent distraction while praying the Holy Rosary, but the meditations, in and of themselves, provide such a deep, rich and humbling account of the Life, Crucifixion, and Resurrection of Our LORD and Savior. Prior to being aware that meditations on the mysteries even existed, I merely recited the Rosary, often considering it a chore. Now I can hardly wait to pray the Rosary because the meditations make the mysteries come alive. In the live chat of the Rosary that I follow on this platform, one of the prayer warriors types out the meditation for each mystery of the Rosary, for which I'm so grateful.

[@truth7294]

It's something I remembered to do again, how my mom taught us to recite the rosary. For example - "Hail Mary full of grace the Lord is with thee, blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus (who was crucified for us) (whom thee gavest birth to) etc. So, there right after "Jesus" insert the mystery being recited and finish with the rest of the Hail Mary, for all the mysteries. It may seem longer, but your rosary will seem to be more fruitful because even how should I put it, quicker, because you'll know which mystery it is at every Hail Mary, even if you don't have a rosary in hand, at times. You'll remember which mystery you're at, making praying the rosary so much more attentive, more fruitful. Thanks mom.

[@Squarepeg001]

"to whom *thou* gave(st) birth" - sorry, my Dad was a grammar perfectionist and some of it rubbed off on me!

[@laimmaculata777]

Adding the luminous mysteries also makes it harder for people to pray ALL mysteries at once - it encourages the disjointed separated mysteries throughout the week which is a totally different experience. Once you pray all 3 mysteries in one day you’ll realize that this is how it was intended to be prayed. When they’re separated throughout the week, you don’t see how they all go together. Praying all 3 will deepen your appreciation of the Rosary and YES it’s about the rhythm of human life

[@teresaislas5118]

But if you meditate on them, they are not exactly new; since they correspond to the joyful for Monday and Thursday in the correct order. Baptism is beginning of Christ for the world same as the Annunciation of the incarnation of the Word. Cana weddings, it is Mary present with Her Divine Son in the live and service of others. The Proclamation of the Kingdom remarks the beginning of Divine Light in the Birth of God's Son. The transfiguration happens on the Christ Presentation in the temple and who accompanies him before God the Father, it is where Simeon and Ana, waiting for Him, can see and glorify Him. The institution of the Eucharist is Jesus who disappears from the sight but is found present in the Temple Body and word.

Thank you fr for a very good talk. Personally speaking, I love the mysteries of light, and I think they are great addition to the Rosary I think it gave a great boost and helped reintroduce the Rosary just as had been done by Saint you mentioned. Personally, I think Our Lady would be very pleased with the addition but also with the particular mysteries that focus on her son. I also think the Pope had the authority to make this addition. Before the mysteries the Rosary was chistt centered and with the addition it is still christ centered I hope that people will accept these beautiful mysteries of light and start praying them if not doing so already.

This is such a sad and confusing time we live in. I am at a loss for words. And to think it will only get worse. Seeing the image of the small children of Fatima is emotionally moving. It leads me to beg them for their intercession during these times of crisis. Knowing how they died as children, alone and in total suffering on behalf of people like me, the worst and yet the most most in need of Gods Mercy. I can only plead to them to pray and beg God to have mercy on me and my family to live in complete trust of God. What a terrible time we live in. God have Mercy on our souls. Our Lady of Fatima pray for us. Little seers of Fatima pray for us.

[@notacreativehandle]

So here’s a thought: St Dominic was given the rosary around 1208. During that time, the second [petition] half of the Ave Maria wasn’t implemented or even said. The official form of the Ave Maria as we know it today, was given in the Roman Breviary in 1568. All of that being said, even without the luminous mysteries, we are already saying a longer form of the rosary than was given to St Dominic, meaning, even now we aren’t saying exactly the way the Blessed Mother gave it.

I used to not pray the Luminous. I try now to pray them once or twice a week (and the full rosary daily). I try. I find them very helpful. They seem very fitting for the attacks on marriage and the Eucharist, the need for us to be transfigured into Christ and the need to repent (3rd luminous) and to be reminded of our baptism and baptismal promises. There is great grace in meditating on them. John Paul II said the rosary was his favorite prayer (see his Encyclical). In any case it's OPTIONAL only. Nobody has to pray it -- that's John Paul II's own instruction on the new mysteries. No need to pray it nor to attack it.

[@zaldybarbosa7713]

I have prayed both versions in different phases of my life and these are what I have observed. Back in college, I was praying the 3 mysteries and I felt that the Divine assistance has always been with me., things that sometimes would / could become awry would get resolved easily. I felt protected by God. When I started praying the 4 mysteries, somehow, I did not feel the same protection that I had then. That even completing the praying of the 4 mysteries was a big struggle. Back then, I just assumed that the struggle is a sacrifice that I have to make. Then one day, as i was out of time to pray the rosary before mass, I decided to pray only the 3 mysteries. Lo and behold, I felt happier, lighter and the struggle to pray the rosary disappeared.

[@zaldybarbosa7713]

So I started to pray the 3 mysteries only, and after 2-3 days of praying, I felt God's special protection again. And then I saw and watched this video and it cemented my belief that I should pray the 3 mysteries from now on.

The Luminous Mysteries are a suggestion by Pope Saint John Paul II, who only ever meant to propose one more set of meditations on the life of Christ that he deemed were important for our times. Baptism, obedience, conversion, Christ's fulfilling of the Law and the prophets, and the Eucharist. They are not traditionaly part of the Rosary, and as a Christian you have no obligation to pray them, but they are a beautiful and rich addition! There's no reason not to pray them. A lot of thought went into this suggestion by the Pope Saint.

Adding the mysteries doesn't make sense in light of the rosary being "Mary's Psalter", i.e. a means of the laity to join the religious in praying the Psalms by praying 150 Hail Mary's. However, in meditating and imitating Christ through this devotion, I think the Luminous mysteries are beneficial. In the original devotion, we move from the joyful mysteries of Christ's birth and childhood and then immediately to his sorrowful mysteries of his death and resurrection. The luminous mysteries fill in the space that would be Christ's life. I don't see how this lessens a person's piety or detract from the original devotion by including these mysteries.

[@gkseeton]

Ned Lawrence the Church has the authority to make alterations to practices. Adding the Luminous mysteries are wonderful. But I stick to praying the decades in order.

[@here_we_go_again2571]

Ned Lawrence, If I remember my church history correctly; the early Christian church used to consider Wednesday to be "Mary's Day". If I am not mistaken, this is still true in the Eastern Orthodox churches. If Wednesday is seen as the first day of the "Marian Week") then saying the mysteries in order from Wednesday makes sense for Wed, Thurs., Friday and Saturday. OR YOU COULD DO AS THE FRANCISCANS (see below) and then say the Glorious Mysteries on Sunday. I am sure after the Crucifixion, on the next day (Saturday), that Mary must have been reflecting on the joys of her life with Jesus. She may have believed that he would resurrect as well as, possibly, have some inclination of the crown of eternal salvation given to those who persevere in their faith. We don't know, the scriptures are about Jesus, not Mary. Church tradition is what speaks of Mary's life after the Resurrection. As I recall from this video (#1 of 3 links, given below) the Franciscans say their 7 decade, "Joys of Mary" rosary on Saturday [consisting of the mysteries of the: *Annunciation* , *Visitation* , *Nativity* , *Presentation at the Temple* , *Finding of the Child Jesus in the Temple* , *the Resurrection* , *the Assumption/Coronation of Mary* (treated as one combined event) Of course, that would leave Monday and Tuesday (more or less) "out of sync." ??? But there are other Marian devotions (e.g. "7 Sorrow's of Mary"- chaplet and the "3 Hail Mary" - chaplet) _________________________________ #1) *How To: Pray the Franciscan* *'Crown' (aka: "Seraphim") Rosary"* kzbin.info/www/bejne/d56tc6ZprcR6e7s #2 a.) *Homily re: Franciscan Crown* *…… Rosary & Renewal of its Papal* *….

I thought the Luminous Mysteries were to bring out issues with today's problems: Baptism of Jesus => Some parents are not Baptizing their children. Something Grandparents demand it and parents do it to get them off their back.. Wedding at Cana => Fidelity and the sacrament of marriage => divorce and remarrying is out of control. I get asked if I'm married. When I say I've been married for 27 years. I'm then asked, "To the to the same woman?" Proclaiming the Kingdom => Desire for Holiness. Maybe turn off the R rated movies and sitcoms, stop gambling and give to the poor, stop voting for pro-abortion candidates so long as they meet your needs, etc. Also, stop comparing yourself to others and compare yourself to Jesus. Transfiguration => Spiritual Courage, which seems to be lacking. Politicians twisting the teaching of the Church to get votes or go with the crowd. Speaking out against abortion. Institution of the Eucharist => The TRUE PRESENCE of Jesus in the Eucharist. Some are doubting. Including priests. Back in the 70's, the tabernacle was next to the door. I see people walk in front of the tabernacle and not even genuflect or bow. I agree that it was defined by St. Pope John Paul II, but he prayed a lot over it. I love tradition, but these Mysteries are still praying the Bible and concentrating on Jesus through Mary. All Mary wants is to lead you to Jesus and His Truth. I might be wrong, but I have turned my life around by praying the Rosary and the four Mysteries.

[@larrywethington3175]

The new mysteries are not bad in themselves because they have the most sacred of all prayers and the holy mysteries are very good. If it had been added not to replace but as an extra devotion, like the litanies or chaplet of mercy, the holy wounds, the seven sorrows rosary, etc. it would probably have been okay. But to intermingle it with what had been given directly from heaven, and erupt the order of the rosary is almost an insult to the most holy Mother of God. Father gives an excellent presentation which I agree with whole-heartedly. St. John gives us a summary of the 15 mysteries in his Gospel, very first chapter: "He came unto his won (the Joyful Mysteries), His own received him not (the Sorrowful mysteries), but to all who did receive him, he gave power to become sons of God (the Glorious Mysteries. Not only that, but the number of fish counted at the end of St. John's gospel, 153, exactly corresponds with the number of Hail Marys in the 15 decade rosary. St. John may have been enlightened about the rosary to come, since he was given care of the most holy Mother of God.

[@CatholicK5357]

For those who really like the Luminous mysteries, don't forget that you can still pray them as a separate chaplet using the rosary beads. This devotion existed before St John Paul II instituted them. But to avoid confusion, and to avoid the boldness of thinking we know better than the Blessed Virgin, we should avoid calling these mysteries the rosary, and we should not let it replace the daily rosary - even on Thursday. It should only be used as an additional devotion if you wish.

[@gobbleguk]

Yes, a private devotion that doesn’t replace the Mysteries of the Day is how I’ve been treating them for the past year or so

[@vincentperratore4395]

For those who won't be convinced of the truth and insist upon using this quite unnecessary, ancillary and indeed spiteful addition to Our Blessed Mother's traditional Rosary, which does nothing to enhance but quite the contrary, raises much confusion, not to mention a disruptive and cancerous spirit in the soul, just remember that its unholy midwife was the antichrist himself, JPII, of atrocious memory!

As Father was speaking (each time) about the Luminous, my head kept repeating: "Lutheran."

[@electrifiedspam]

I add a saint Michael's prayer each decade when I am praying the rosary alone. I also say the Anime Christi, because I had trouble memorizing the Hail Holy Queen, so I said that instead. I now know it so I say both. New convert here, I'm trying to figure out where the lines are drawn.

[@dasan9178]

I think it’s wonderful that you do so much with your rosary. We like reading a short devotion before each decade, and often add in other prayers as you’ve done, such as a line from from a litany before each Hail Mary. We don’t do it this way every time, however, because there isn’t always time for more than a simple rosary. As to what is / isn’t allowed, the rules for private and public devotions are different. Though there’s nothing wrong with praying the rosary in a wide variety of ways privately, it’s important to note that not all prayers are approved for public devotion. As to your mention of adding the St. Michael prayer at the end of each decade and again at the end of the rosary, this practice actually goes way back as a simple way to honor St. Michael and invoke his powerful protection. My husband has been doing this with his own rosaries for a long time for that very purpose after finding the suggestion on a traditional Catholic website about spiritual warfare.

[@2girlsfur192]

I get you what you're saying about not being able to memorize one prayer my first language isn't English but the prayers are 😂, when that happens to me I used to Read the prayer and then eventually I can memorized all the prayers.

[@vayacondios9972]

Abigail Jimenez - Amen, me too.Lord have Mercy, for Jesus did say that we were to stay with the traditions of which we were given. The Church was given traditions, that were protected and upheld, and these changes in the Church had been prophecied about long before. Fr. Hesse, and Lefebvre, explain very well about these changes, since Vatican 2, and they Changed the Mass, which had been codified that it can not be changed, not even by a Pope, which was written in the earlier Roman Missal. The 15 decade Rosary is the one in which we were given, therefore we should obey our heavenly mother, and Pray the Rosary, her way. Otherwise we could be being deceived, we need to discern everything. and Satan seeks to destroy all things Holy and he often does so subtly, and could even make something unholy appear holy. God Bless.

Who would dare think there is something lacking in the Rosary to insert optional changes? That is prideful and an insult to Our Lady. Pray the "Luminous mysteries" by themselves, outside the Rosary. Leave the Rosary to it's true form, otherwise it is no longer the Rosary.

[@barbwellman6686]

@@nOPE-fs3du Why? Because the Luminous Mysteries are also part of Christ mission on earth: His Baptism (and later ours), His first public Miracle and Our Lady's intercession at Cana, Christ's proclamation of the Kingdom and His call for Conversion (Reconciliation),the Lord's Transfiguration, and His institution of the New Covenant through the Eucharist.

[@nOPE-fs3du]

​@@barbwellman6686 But, the Rosary is not a catalog of everything Christ did and it's not suppose to be. It's not even supposed to be a catalog of every major highlight. Why? Because the structure is reflective of the 150 Psalms, hence "Mary's Psalter." Otherwise, we might as well keep making more mysteries so we can cover everything that Christ did on His mission. If the Rosary had 70 Mysteries or adjusted the Hail Mail count to 20 per decade instead of 10, would it still be the Rosary? It certainly wouldn't be what Our Lady gave to St. Dominic. It certainly would be the just the 15 mysteries that Our Lady wants us to pray per the message of Fatima. One cannot take a devotion and morph it into something that destroys it's intrinsic structure, symbolism, and chronological flow and call it the same thing. And one shouldn't come along and act like they are wiser than centuries of Pope, true Saints, and Our Lady herself, seeking to add more mysteries and thereby breaking the Psalter/structure of the devotion.

[@macatcas]

I would respectfully propose a third way. I had trouble with saying the Luminous Mysteries in the daily pattern of the Rosary but they are very well-suited to Eucharistic adoration. If one says the Rosary in the traditional cycle and says one set of Mysteries each day, the traditional balance is perfect. If one says all three traditional Mysteries each day then the Luminous Mysteries can provide a further meditation during Holy Hour. The Luminous Mysteries are an addition and should not subtract, detract, re-order or disorder the original devotion. The Luminous Mysteries are a reverent way to prolong the devotion and not a distortion to compare with the vivisection of the Rosary proposed by Monsignor Bugnini. Some people love novelties for the sake of novelty and they were eager to rearrange and personalize even a holy devotion given to us by Our Lady for the nourishment, formation, perfecting in faith and salvation of souls. St. John Paul II did not suggest supplanting the traditional order, others rushed to do that. I would also point out the six (Brigittine) and seven decade (Franciscan Crown) rosaries used by many people for many centuries to offer more devotion (not less). These devotions are authentic and salutary.

Before Saint Pope John Paul II came out with the Luminous mysteries, a priest came out with a Scriptural Eucharist mysteries of the Rosary 📿 pamphlet. I’ve bought 💯 of them and produced two new mysteries: the Word of God mysteries and the Incarnation mysteries. ​ The Word of God mysteries include: 1: the Gospel is veiled (read 2 Corinthians 3:13-4:4 and John 6:48 & 56). 2. Jesus is tempted with a perversion of scripture (read Matthew 4:5-7). 3. Jesus Christ is the WORD OF GOD (read John 1:1-15, 8:12, 12:46 and 18:37). 4. Christ’s Church is the authoritative source for interpreting scripture (read John 3:11 & 4:31-42). 5. Jesus interprets the scripture for His Church (read Luke 24:13-35). The Incarnation mysteries include: 1. God’s image; 2. The Type of Incarnation; 3. The Incarnation; 4. Christ’s Human Nature; 5. Christ’s Divine Nature.

All three have never disappointed me. Also, some rosaries are six (Saint Birgitta of Sweden) and seven (Franciscan Crown) decades; not the 5-decade Dominican rosary that is also used as a Divine Mercy Chaplet, for those who like that devotion. St Francis of Assisi created the 14 Stations of the cross devotion (7 decades gone through twice) Franciscans also have 7 joyful "Flowers" meditations that they do with their rosaries.

This got me thinking. What if one prays all 4 mysteries? The psalter is prayed in one day so the whole rosary ( all 15 or 20 decades) should be prayed in one day. Will adding 50 more Hail Marys a day be bad? I’m sure it is not bad but it is not necessary for holiness as I’m sure the Blessed Mother knows exactly what is needed. If you only pray one mystery a day then use the traditional pattern: J/S/G and on Sunday, pray depending on the liturgical season. It becomes a problem when you pray the 54 day rosary novena, that’s when I don’t pray the Luminous mysteries because it throws it off. Now where it got me thinking, I don’t have to pray all 4 mysteries. I can just pray 3 because that’s what was requested by the Blessed Mother. Mother Mary, help!

In my opinion the luminous mysteries are a wonderful devotion alongside the traditional rosary😊 they are an important supplementary thing to contemplate! Baptism, preaching,marriage, deification ,and the institution of the eucharist! I think it might just come to the interpretation of how the rosary works. Is it only effective if we contemplate the exact mysteries given by Our Lady? Or, is she also pleased by the same prayers, even done with Latin and singing, while contemplating mysteries she did not list? I mean, the eastern Catholics contemplate other mysteries and yet we call that rosary an acceptable form of prayer. Not inferior at all to the western version. You also have the carthusian rosary. You also have the relatively big tradition of adding an extra decade for the souls in purgatory. By no means is this a license to replace the Holy Rosary with something new entirely. You have 15 mysteries given by Our Lady. A Holy and venerable tradition . Given to fight against the albigensians and other heresies. Now, tack on 5 more that were drawn mostly by a saint, asked to be done by a saint pope, which all fight against the modern heresies of today. Honestly, If these 5 mysteries came out 100 years ago no trad would have a problem with them. It's just it's from a time when the Church at large does whacky things in general and it just seems safe to reject anything novel barring a serious miracle.

[@rizcampos605]

I think that it does not matter which rosary is prayed (TRADITIONAL OR NEW UPDATED), what matters is to pray the rosary. as simple as that. (March 23 2018)

[@seriouscat2231]

I think that it does matter. And there are reasons why the original mysteries are like they are. These reasons do not apply to the innovated mysteries. And it has to do with their content. Not with who invented them, when or why. The proof is in the pudding. The new mysteries do not belong.

Serious Cat So what’s the proof?

@@steele8280, you will know it when you see it.

@@seriouscat2231 You don't find it curious that in cases like this, a priest will condemn change.... Yet in other instances when defending their faith, these same people such as this priest will cite "whatever you bind on Earth will be bound in heaven."? Literally...... Catholics will defend many teachings and dogmas of the church by citing "whatever you (Bishops and Priests) bind on Earth will be bound in heaven. Yet. , Such as in the case of this priest speaking in this video.... Whenever there's something he doesn't agree with, suddenly that no longer matters? Why is it that when John Paul II adds Mysteries to the rosary, this priest suddenly no longer gives merit to the idea that whatever JP2 binds on Earth will be bound in heaven???

[@seriouscat2231]

@@zwijac, I think you have no idea what the concept of binding or loosening means (and does not mean). It's far far from some simple game of Simon says.

AMEN! STICK WITH TRADITION

[@gemacervantes7528]

could you make a video of the traditional rosary being prayed

[@keithstirling5880]

Gema Cervantes , look up the stained glass 15 decade rosary by Connie Chapman on KZbin. it's a good one and only 53 minutes long. there are also good longer scriptural rosaries.

[@jamesrushton2441]

I made a few myself

[@elliestretchprays7851]

I made this original rosary with biblical meditation and educational inspirational images... kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5XZip93fbxsm7s

[@userPs91victory]

Thank you so much Father. The Sacred Words of God and the traditions should have never been changed from the Faith. The same applies to the prayer for Eucharist. We should keep the traditional prayer: "the roof of the mouth" applies to medical science. But not for spiritual purpose. Hope this will go back to its criminality in Jesus Name.

I could listen to this Priest day and night. Thank you for posting.

[@joan5856]

Our Lady gave St Dominic a fifteen decade Rosary. The Joyful, Sorrowful and Glorious mysteries. I learnt the Rosary and I pray it the same way I did as a child Why in this very troubled time must there be a change to the Rosary. I am 89 and the Pope is doing everything in his power to turn the Church away from God.

[@Etihwkcirtap]

wasnt the fatama prayer added? and other changes also?

[@bagobeans]

patrick white Our Lady taught the three children the Fatima prayer.

[@gadoladonai8296]

patrick white fatima prayer also came from mother Mary

[@betsybattles2696]

I thought the second half of the hail Mary was added in the time of the Black Death and was not part of the original Rosary. Is that not correct?

[@hglundahl]

6:07 It seems he did in fact simplify the Rosary from 50 mysteries to 15. Whether he found it so, or he did so on his own behalf or was ordered, so one could easily learn all mysteries by heart and recite without a priest.

I’m a restorationist Christian, but I pray the rosary. It is beautiful and deep.

[@thekingslady1]

What is "restorationist Christian"?? Mormon??
