I did everything I could to avoid praying the rosary in the past. Then in February of 2010 I read “The Secret to the Rosary”, by St Louis de Montfort. I fell in love with ‘Our Lady’s Chain’. The words of the Glorious Mystery were the last words I heard my dad say before he slipped into a coma, and later died.
Not only was it a very great grace to pray that last rosary with my dad, but I felt a strong presence of Our Lady at the foot of his bed before She took him to heaven.

I thank our Queen Mother for having given me a profound love of Her rosary, and the grace to pray it with my hero. The last thing he did in this life was to give a gift of the rosary to the Immaculate! I will never forget my dad because his memory is tied to Our Lady’s rosary.

Please pray the holy rosary. Give a gift of your heart to Our Holy Mother, Our Queen, every day.

St Louis de Montfort, thank you for showing me what true devotion to the Immaculate, and her rosary looks like.

Ave Maria!
