October: The Month of the Rosary
This is not an article on how to better pray the Rosary. These past two weeks I am just writing something on Rosary to basically encourage all of you to make an effort to pray the Rosary. I have come to know there are many Catholic families with a deep devotion to the Rosary. The liturgical ministry has introduced recitation of Rosary before the Tamil Mass at 6.35 am and before English Mass on Sunday at 8.35 am. I have noticed that some of you make it a point to join this recitation of Rosary in the Church.
However, there are also many people who come under the “not Rosary people” category. Don’t give up. Pray the Rosary, at least once in a while. Say it at random when you find yourself feeling overwhelmed and in need of prayers. Say one or two decades a night if you can’t manage five. It’s so much more than nothing.
In this month of the Holy Rosary give it a try. Every night for a month if you can! Kneeling or sitting, with kids or without. There is probably the best way to pray. There are definitely some ways that are better than others but there are many ways that will strengthen and nourish your soul and your family more than none at all. Be a family that prays the Rosary. Give Our Lady a foothold in your family.
