Would you like to stay connected with people in prayer during the COVID-19 crisis? St. Padre Pio said that the Rosary is the ‘weapon’ for these times. A devotion that allows for people to pray the rosary together even when they can’t be in the same location is the Living Rosary. Its origin probably dates back further but it is connected to St. Pope John Paul II. He did this when the Catholic community was not allowed by the government to pray together. It gives a sense of community even when members can’t be physically together. The participant along with 19 people pray a different designated decade of the rosary for the day and then together the group has prayed an entire rosary every day. We can make as many groups as we need to and there are no other requests other than for you to pray your specific decade every day. Your contact information is kept private from the other participants; they only know your first name.
Where did the idea come from?
While the history might go back further, we found out about the Living Rosary from Pope St. John Paul II. Before he was a priest, JP II was a member of a group who prayed together during the Nazi occupation in Poland. Praying the rosary was one way they fought the evil of their time. Drawing on the wisdom of a Saint, we venture to follow in his footsteps and entrust this crisis to Jesus through Mary.
What is the How-to Catholic Living Rosary praying for?
In general, the intention of this Living Rosary group is for the Church. For those suffering. For those who need redemption. For the truth to come to light. For true reform. For the future. For the rise of new Saints.
