The Rosary
Excerpt from USCCB.org
The Rosary, though clearly Marian in character, is at heart a Christ-centered prayer. Through its mysteries, the faithful are led to contemplate the face of Christ and the depths of His love. By praying the Rosary, Christians sit at the school of Mary and are drawn more deeply into the Gospel and the saving work of Jesus Christ.
