So, we hear how much of a call we have when praying the rosary. We hear that it should keep us in a state of growth and push us to dive more deeply into our faith.

It is supposed to serve as a call to you to dive deeper into your spiritual life and it is supposed to serve as a tool to let you see the Lord’s life and reflect on yours and how you need to change or improve your life to grow deeper.

The Mysteries are broken down into four sets and are all taken from the bible.
Read MoreThe Rosary is such a beautiful prayer in which we ask for the intercession of our Holy Mother.. Think about it, every single time you start praying, “Hail Mary Full of Grace,” you are specifically asking Mary to intercede for you.
