The Secret of the Rosary Tan Books The secret of the rosary tan books Continue Probably the best book ever written about the Rosary; appeals to all ages. Shows the great spiritual power of the Rosary, which is appreciated by few. Explains why the Rosary is the most important private prayer. Canon William talks about De Montfort's book: This goes far beyond mere research. We can say that it contains everything that can be said about the Rosary - its content and form, its real value, the instruction necessary for its evaluation and use. Sold more than 5,300,000! Madonna with Rosary Murillo, 1650. The Secret of the Rosary is a book about the Holy Rose, written by Saint Louis de Montfort, a French priest and Catholic saint who died in 1716. The English translation of the book bears the Imprimatur of Archbishop Thomas E. Molloy of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn. The book revolves around the views of rosary and force rosary and consists of a series of short sections called Roses each of which is about one or two pages. Each Rose discusses a separate point of view about the Rosary and can be addressed to different sections of the audience, for example, priests against lay people. This book examines two different methods of rosary prayer, while three additional methods (i.e. five in total) are listed in God Alone's book, based on the collected writings of St. Louis. The book consists of an introduction, plus two main parts. Part I: What is the Rosary and Part II: How to Read It. The book is structured into 53 roses, i.e. sections. The introduction consists of three roses, Part I embodies the first rose in the fortieth rose and Part II includes the fiftieth rose. The introduction has three roses: The White Rose for Priests, the Red Rose for Sinners, and the Mystical Rose Tree for devout souls. These three roses epitomize the multi-species approach adopted in the book. The advice to priests about using the Rosary to save sinners is directly related to the Council of Sinners on how to use the Rosary for salvation. This theme continues throughout the book, each rose gently leading to another, in the process gradually revealing various secrets on how to approach the Rosary, how to read and how to use it for optimal spiritual benefit.

It starts with the forty-first rose called Purity Intentions. This rose indicates that it is not the length of prayer that matters, but the fervor, purity and respect with which he said, for example, one correctly said hail Mary is worth a lot, which is poorly said. This rose is followed by two Roses Attention and The Struggle with Distractions. They give tips for achieving proper thinking for telling the Rosary. The theme then culminates with Rose with awe, which returns to respect. Although each is a separate Rose, they are deftly interconnected to present multiple dimensions for focus and respect. So while the book is highly readable and modest on the surface, it is based on a well structured lot of perspective analysis of the Rosary. Fifty-three sections are closely related and well-thought out. Thus, the term secret quite becomes, because the book shows these relationships in terms of a consistent topic. But the typical reader should not be concerned about the analysis, because the flow of text is natural, pure and pious and appeals to both lay people and priests. The book has been read by Catholics all over the world for more than two centuries and continues to be a great spiritual resource.

  • Marian Consecration and Giving Us a 33-Day Plan to Prepare Our Souls for That Big Step
    33-Day Preparation for Total Consecration to Jesus Through Mary Following the itinerary of Saint Louis Marie Grignon de Montfort with selections of writings from the Popes and Saints 1 Introduction Saint Louis de Montfort set forth a revolution of spirituality in teaching us about Marian consecration and giving us a 33-day plan to prepare our souls for that big step. What is this consecration? He described this consecration as being a form of “slavery” to Mary. Slavery means that we do nothing without her. We choose not to have a will apart from hers. He even invites us to wear a chain to signify that close bond with her. He elaborated the various consequences of that bond, saying that we share everything with her including our prayers, our intentions, our actions, and our merits. Fundamentally he is saying that we choose to become totally dependent on her: we receive everything through her and share everything with her. At first this sounds radical and may even sound a little scary or seem like a lot of work. As we come to understand the way the spirit of the world has infected our thinking, however, and as we get in touch with our own woundedness, we come to discover that this is a merciful gift from heaven. It is a sweet path of salvation. In fact, it is better than we could have ever hoped for! What it means is that there is a sweet, loving, perfect mother who actually wants to live in this kind of close relationship with us.

  • REMEMBER, O Most Gracious Virgin Mary, That Never Was It Known That
    August 15, 2021 The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary Do you ever feel like you could use some help approaching God in your prayers? The Memorare is a prayer that reminds us that we have a wonderful advocate and protector in the mother of our Lord, the Blessed Virgin Mary, pictured at right. In our prayers to her we honor and worship her Son, who is more than happy to listen to His mother’s pleas on our behalf. The Memorare, printed below, invites us to ask the Blessed Mother for her assistance and her grace, especially when we feel most troubled in our daily lives. REMEMBER, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy inter- cession was left unaided. Inspired with this confi- dence, I fly to thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother; to thee do I come; before thee I stand, sinful and sor- rowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen. The actual author of the Memorare is unknown. It has been traditionally attributed to the abbot St. Bernard of Clairvaux from the 12th century. This is possibly because it was championed byanotherBernard, the French priest Claude Bernard, who used it extensively in his ministry to the poor and to prisoners (including some quite hardened criminals!) in the 17th century. Claude Bernard credited reciting the Memorare with curing him of a serious illness. He had some 200,000 copies of the prayer printed up and distributed in leaflets in various languages during his lifetime.

  • Blessed Louis Marie Grignion De Montfort
    BLESSED LOUIS MARIE GRIGNION DE MONTFORT MARK HEATH, O.P. II: The Man and the Book of the True Devotion HERE was one thing in which Blessed de Montfort was not like St. Dominic: his size. Dominic, according to X-ray [I pictures of his · coffin was five feet five inches in height; Louis was more nearly six feet six. St. Dominic was thin and wiry; de Montfort was large, brawny and strong. He had in­ herited from his father a very strong and robust body. Often when he directed the building of churches, he was known to move timber and stones which were too heavy for the peasants with whom he worked and to whom he preached. On one occasion while preaching in a town square he was inter­ rupted and annoyed by a crowd of drinkers. They were seated at a table near the place where he was preaching and were singing and shouting. They were so loud and boisterous that the audience could not follow the sermon. De Montfort noticed this, and walking over to the men, seized the tables one by one, and turned them over. The crocks and bottles went scattering to the ground; the drinkers, to the nearest cover as fast as their legs would take them. Blessed Louis returned and placidly continued his sermon. Yet despite his great strength and fine physique, the effect of grace on his character was to make him gentle and mild. "I should have been the terror of France were it not for grace" he once said of himself.

  • Saint Louis De Montfort Worksheet
    Name _____________________________________ Date _______________ Saint Louis de Montfort Directions: Read the biography and answer the questions. Born in 1673 in France, Saint Louis de Montfort is best known for his devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary. As a seminary student he lived among the very poor in Paris and preached about the Gospel to them. He was ordained as a priest in 1700 and worked in a parish even though he wished to travel to North America to become a missionary. He longed to become a preacher so he joined the Dominicans, who were known for their preaching and for their devotion to the Rosary. He founded groups dedicated to the Rosary and led retreats inspired by a devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary. Pope Clement XI appointed him as an Apostolic Missionary in France and he travelled throughout France preaching parish missions and leading retreats. He then founded the Company of Mary and the Daughters of Wisdom. During his travels he found time to write his well-known books: True Devotion to Mary, The Secret of Mary, and the Secret of the Rosary. His preaching was not always well received; in fact, he was poisoned on one occasion and his health deteriorated. He died at the age of only 43 while preaching his final mission. 1.

  • Homily on St. Louis-Marie De Montfort
    Homily on St. Louis-Marie de 1 Montfort VENERABLE BRETHREN AND BELOVED SONS. When Louis-Marie Grignion de Montfort, whom, by the Guiding Spirit of the Holy Ghost, we have just honoured with the title of Saint, came to this hallowed City to venerate the Tomb of Peter, he learnt from our late predecessor Clement XI that he was not destined, as was his wish, to preach the Gospel in foreign lands but rather to bring back his own country to the true Christian way of living. Obeying wholeheartedly the instructions given him by the Holy Father, he returned to France and throughout his whole life did everything he could to carry out the wishes and counsels of Rome. The Apostolic Pilgrim covered the length and breadth of his native Brittany several times—on foot—visiting towns, cities, villages and out-of-the-way hamlets; and wherever this Apostle of Divine Truth, this keen propagator of virtue went, he brought about a complete renewal of Christian life: disputes were settled, discords reconciled, enmities suppressed; the smouldering embers of faith were rekindled and charity yielded most copious and salutary fruits. Those who propagated error, very often under the, guise of truth, always found in him a tireless and strenuous opponent; he fiercely opposed all who popularized erroneous pious practices or who upheld doctrine contrary to the teaching of the Church. As a result of his labours the integrity of Catholic Doctrine was safeguarded and the Catholic Faith shone not only in the minds of men, but also in private and public life alike.
