Our Lady of the Rosary

Pray the Rosary and Join the Confraternity!

Each year, the month of October is dedicated to praying the Holy Rosary, coinciding with the Feast Day of Our Lady of the Rosary celebrated on October 7. Fr. Matt Tomeny, MIC explains the history surrounding this glorious feast day, as well as giving some other information on how you can help pray the Rosary with us this October, and join the Rosary Confraternity at the National Shrine!

The power of the Rosary

The Rosary is more than a collection of Our Fathers, Hail Marys, and Glory Bes. It is an appeal to God through the arms of Mary. It is as if the Blessed Mother is holding our hands, fingering the beads along with us. We ask her to pray for us, knowing that we can be confident of her intercession for us all.
