Friends of the Rosary,Today's in first reading (Matthew 12:38-42), in the feast of St. Apollinaris, Bishop and Martyr, we see the opponents of the Lord asking for a sign of Heaven. Jesus tells them that no sign will be given except the sign of Jonah, that is, the resurrection.Christ the Lord points that repentance is the sign they are missing. The people of Nineveh heard a warning and changed.The Queen of the South traveled far to seek wisdom. But standing before the scribes and Pharisees is Someone greater than Jonah and greater than Solomon, and still they resist.God wants a heart that becomes repentant, merciful, and humble. He is not asking for religious performance without conversion.The sign is already here: Christ died and rose. Now the question is whether we will repent, listen, and walk humbly.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Friends of the Rosary,In the parable of the weeds in the field, the Lord Jesus explained — as we read today (St. Matthew 13:24-43):"He who sows good seed is the Son of Man, the field is the world, the good seed the children of the kingdom.The weeds are the children of the evil one,and the enemy who sows them is the devil.The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels.Just as weeds are collected and burned up with fire, so will it be at the end of the age.The Son of Man will send his angels,and they will collect out of his kingdomall who cause others to sin and all evildoers.They will throw them into the fiery furnace,where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth.Then the righteous will shine like the sunin the kingdom of their Father.Whoever has ears ought to hear."In another parable, Jesus answers the question of why God permits the evil and wicked to prosper.“If you pull up the weeds,you might uproot the wheat along with them.Let them grow together until harvest;then at harvest time I will say to the harvesters,"First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles for burning;but gather the wheat into my barn."In other words, the triumph of the wicked is short-lived, while the reward of the Christian who suffers from their wickedness is everlasting.The very wickedness and injustices of evil-doers are one of the ways that God uses to perfect his elect. Only on a battlefield can a true soldier be proven.In the parable, the weed does not destroy the wheat. It only makes it more difficult for wheat to reach maturity. So it is with the Christian.If we succumb to this evil influence and give up the practice of our faith, the fault is ours. God can force no man to serve him.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Friends of the Rosary,In today's main passage of the Gospel (Matthew 12:14-21), we read:"The Pharisees went out and took counsel against Jesus to put him to death.When Jesus realized this, he withdrew from that place. Many people followed him, and he cured them all, but he warned them not to make him known. This was to fulfill what had been spoken through Isaiah the prophet"Jesus knows the Pharisees' behavior, and instead of fighting for His reputation or forcing a public confrontation, He withdraws. That withdrawal is not weakness, but the strength of someone completely rooted in the Father's will.Matthew connects this moment to Isaiah's prophecy about the Servant of the Lord: Jesus will not quarrel, shout, or crush what is already wounded.He sees fragile people with tenderness. He does not exploit vulnerability. He heals, restores, and moves gently with souls that are already bent under pressure.The contrast is sharp. While sinful power grabs, makes noise, and demands control, Christlike power heals.It's not just about being nice. It is choosing the way of Jesus when you are misunderstood, opposed, or tempted to prove yourself. We treat someone fragile, tired, anxious, sick, guilty, or difficult the way Christ treats people, by bringing justice through humility, mercy, and faithfulness.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Friends of the Rosary,Our Lord desires mercy, not sacrifice, as He reveals in the Gospel today (Matthew 12:1–8). The Pharisees criticized His hungry disciples for picking grain on the Sabbath. He didn't dismiss the Law; He revealed its heart, full of mercy.The divine mercy is poured out without reservation upon us. It can't be earned, and we don't deserve his mercy. But God simply loves us, regardless of whether we are worthy or not, and pours His mercy unconditionally.True holiness does not become harsh toward human weakness.That was shown in the first reading, too, when Hezekiah turned to the Lord in tears when death was near, and God heard him. First and second readings point to the same truth: God is not distant from our hunger, fear, sickness, or weakness. He wants prayer that is honest and worship that becomes mercy.Challenge for today: choose mercy in one concrete moment, especially where you are tempted to judge.Prayer for today: Lord Jesus, make my heart merciful. Teach me to honor You not only with rules and words, but with compassion, prayer, and trust.

Friends of the Rosary,Today, July 16th, is the Memorial of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, a feast instituted for the Carmelites in 1332 and extended to the whole Church by Benedict XIII in 1726. It's the feast of the worldwide devotion to the Scapular of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, also known as the Brown Scapular.In Mount Carmel, the prophet Elijah defended the beauty and purity of Israel's faith in the living God.In the twelfth century, hermits withdrew to that mountain and later founded the Carmelite order, devoted to the contemplative life under the patronage of Mary, the holy Mother of God.Today is the principal feast day of the Carmelite Order.Since the Carmelites were still under constant harassment by the Saracens, the sixth General of the Order, St. Simon Stock, pleaded with the Blessed Virgin for some special sign of her protection. On July 16, 1251, she designated the scapular as the special mark of her maternal love.The scapular is common to many religious Orders, but it is a special feature of the Carmelites. A smaller form of the scapular is given to lay persons in order that they may share in the great graces associated with it.This sacramental is a sign of one's decision to follow Jesus, as Mary did, the perfect model for all the disciples of Christ. It's also an expression of our belief that we will meet God in eternal life, aided by Mary's intercession and prayer.While sacramentals prepare us to receive grace if we are in the right disposition, the Church emphasizes that only sacraments can confer sanctifying grace.The Scapular is an external sign of the filial relationship established between the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother and Queen of Mount Carmel, and the faithful who entrust themselves totally to her protection, who have recourse to her maternal intercession.In New York City, there is Our Lady of Mount Carmel Shrine in East Harlem, established in 1881 and home to one of the oldest festivals in America. Also, Williamsburg in Brooklyn, NY, annually holds the Festival of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel and St. Paulinus of Nola (Festa Del Giglio).Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Friends of the Rosary,Today, July 15, is the Memorial Day of Saint and mystic Bonaventure, Bishop and Doctor of the Church (1221-1274), a thirteenth-century Italian saint, known as the Seraphic Doctor.As the General of the Franciscan Order, he consolidated the institution and was even considered a second founder.Teacher and preacher, he was a unique personality, beloved by God and men alike, who attracted everyone who saw him.Unsurpassed in sanctity, wisdom, and eloquence, he was gifted, as with a skill of accomplishing things. St. Bonaventure had not only a winning disposition, but a heart full of love, pious, charitable, and rich in virtue and wisdom.His contemporaries are said to have believed that no one was "more handsome, more holy, or more learned" than he.In philosophy, he was the principal leader of the Platonic-Augustinian school of Franciscan thought; as such, he stood opposed to the Aristotelianism that was making its way into the schools of the time (represented by Thomas Aquinas).Bonaventure's Life of St. Francis was a favorite book of the Middle Ages.Dante had already included him among the inhabitants of his "Paradise."Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Friends of the Rosary,Today, July 14, the Catholic Church in the USA celebrates the Memorial of St. Kateri Tekakwitha (1656-1680), the "Lily of the Mohawks," the first native American to be declared "Blessed" and "Saint."Kateri was born in 1656 near the town of Auriesville, New York. She refused to marry a Mohawk man and, at nineteen, finally got the courage to take the step of converting. One year later, she was baptized by a Jesuit missionary on Easter Sunday in 1676, given the name Kateri (Catherine).She was devoted to the Eucharist and to Jesus Crucified, leading a life of prayer, penitential practices, and care for the sick.Kateri incurred the hostility of her tribe because of her faith while praying for the conversion of her nation.Witnesses said that her emaciated face changed color and became like that of a healthy child. The lines of suffering, even the pockmarks, disappeared, and the touch of a smile came upon her lips. She was beatified in 1980.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Friends of the Rosary,In today's Gospel (Matthew 10:34-11:1), Jesus the Lord says, “Whoever does not take up his cross and follow after me is not worthy of me.”Christ must be first because only then do our other loves become rightly ordered. All creation is ordered to the Divine, so it's wise to recognize that our discipleship cannot be something added on the edges of life.The first reading from Isaiah is just as direct. If we love God, that love has to show up in mercy, honesty, protection of the vulnerable, and a willingness to stop doing evil. “Wash yourselves clean… make justice your aim.” Prayer must become conversion.The saint of the day, St. Henry II, Emperor II, regarded power as a responsibility before God, supporting reform and seeking to govern justly. His life reminds us that holiness is not only for churches and monasteries. It belongs in decisions, leadership, family duties, work, and public life.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Friends of the Rosary,Today, Sunday's Gospel (Matthew 13:1-23), we are given the parable of the sower.The seed — the Word of God — is good, but the soil — human response — dramatically differs.Some hearts are hardened, some distracted and confused by anxiety and worldly lures, and some are ready to receive the Word deeply.Jesus gently asks us what kind of soil we are today.In the first reading, Isaiah says God's word is like rain and snow: it does not return empty, but accomplishes what God sends it to do. Even when growth feels slow, grace is not wasted. God keeps working beneath the surface.As a prayer for today, we ask the Lord to make our hearts good soil. Let His Word take root in us, bear fruit through us, and teach us mercy!Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Friends of the Rosary,Today is the Memorial of St. Benedict (480-547), the father of Christian monasticism.St. Benedict was born in Nursia, Italy, in 480 and, after being educated in Rome, left the world to live as a solitary hermit at Subiaco. He organized a form of monastic life in twelve small monasteries. Under his guidance, as abbot, the monks vowed to seek God and devoted themselves to work and prayer.A few years later, St. Benedict left the district of Subiaco to found the abbey of Monte Cassino on the heights of Campania. There, he wrote his famous Rule, the monks' program of life, in which the Roman genius and the monastic wisdom of the Christian world are wonderfully combined.His rule prescribed common sense, a life of moderate asceticism, prayer, study, and work, and community life under one superior. It stressed obedience, stability, and zeal, and made the Divine Office the center of monastic life; it would affect spiritual and monastic life in the West for centuries to come.While ruling his monks (most of whom, including Benedict, were not ordained), he counseled rulers and Popes, ministered to the poor and destitute around him, and tried to repair the ravages of the Lombard invasion led by Totila.For St. Benedict, the fundamental, and even more, the sole objective of existence is the search for God: "Quaerere Deum." He knew that when the believer enters into a profound relationship with God, he cannot be content with living in a mediocre way, with a minimalist ethic and superficial religiosity.In this light, the faithful better the expression that Benedict took from St. Cyprian, and that is summarized in his Rule (IV, 21): Nihil amori Christi praeponere. Prefer nothing to the love of Christ.Associated with the life of the saint and worn on a Rosary, the Saint Benedict Medal is used by many faithful as a sacramental for spiritual protection against evil and temptation, and as a prayer of exorcism against Satan. The primary prayer associated with the Saint Benedict medal is an exorcism prayer, often represented by initials on the medal, which translates to: "May the Holy Cross be my light; May the dragon never be my guide. Begone, Satan! Never tempt me with your vanities. What you offer is evil; Drink the poison yourself!". Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Friends of the Rosary,Today's Gospel (Matthew 10:16-23) continues Jesus' mission discourse, with apostles sent “like sheep in the midst of wolves,” so Christ calls them to be both wise and innocent. Catholic discipleship is not naivety. It is courage without fear.In the first reading, "Return, O Israel, to the LORD," we observe that God does not merely demand repentance; He promises healing. “I will love them freely.” The Psalm answers with the prayer every sinner needs: “Create a clean heart in me, O God.” Before we can witness before others, we have to let God restore the heart within us.Also, the martyr saints of today, Sts. Rufina and Secunda highlight the Gospel's message. These Roman Christian martyrs show us that fidelity and love for the Lord are costly.So let's be gentle, not weak. Wise, but not calculating. If pressure comes, let's trust that the Spirit of the Father can speak through us at the hour we need Him.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Friends of the Rosary,In today's Gospel (Matthew 10:7-15), Jesus' apostles are sent to proclaim that the Kingdom of heaven is near. They are also told to travel lightly: no gold, no extra tunic, no dependence on worldly security.The lesson is clear: mission begins in trust. We give because we have first received.The first reading shows the heart of God as a Father who loved Israel from childhood, taught him to walk, and drew him with “bands of love.” Even when Israel wanders, God's mercy is not cold or distant. His holiness is revealed in justice and patient, wounded love.Today's honored saints, St. Augustine Zhao Rong, priest, and Companions, Chinese Martyrs, make this Gospel concrete. They witnessed to Christ in China through persecution, imprisonment, and martyrdom. Some were priests, many were laypeople, and many were native-born Chinese Catholics.Their feast reminds us that the Kingdom is proclaimed not only by preaching but by fidelity when faith becomes costly.The challenge for the faithful: give freely and carry peace into the house you enter. If that peace is rejected, do not become bitter. Leave the dust behind, but keep the Gospel alive in your own heart.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Friends of the Rosary,Today's Gospel (Matthew 10:1-7) shows Jesus summoning the Twelve and giving them authority to drive out demons and cure every disease."As you go, make this proclamation: ‘The Kingdom of heaven is at hand.'"Discipleship is an invitation to all of us. Christ calls, names, equips, and sends. And the mission begins close to home: “the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”Meanwhile, the first reading of the Gospel warns against a fruitful life that becomes divided from God. Israel grows prosperous, but the prosperity feeds false altars. The Catholic lesson is sharp: blessings are meant to deepen worship, not replace it. The Lord asks us to “sow justice” and “seek the Lord” while there is time.Saints Aquila and Priscilla, the saints of the day, fit this Gospel beautifully. They were a married couple, coworkers of St. Paul, and their home became a place where the Church could gather and grow. Their witness reminds us that mission is not only for priests, apostles, or public preachers. A household can become a domestic church.St. John Chrysostom wrote, “The home is a little church.”Let Christ's authority enter ordinary rooms, ordinary conversations, ordinary duties. The Kingdom is proclaimed not only by words, but by the shape of a faithful life.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Discover the rich, miraculous history of the Basilica of the Holy Rosary in Bandel. Join us on this soulful pilgrimage through Kolkata to uncover the legend of our Lady.

Friends of the Rosary,As we read today (Matthew 9:32-38), Jesus was driving out demons from possessed people; in today's passage, He healed a man who was unable to speak.But the Pharisees, full of pride and no mercy, rather than rejoicing when God works in unexpected ways, contrary to our expectations, responded with suspicion, accusing Jesus of acting by the power of demons. They said, “He drives out demons by the prince of demons.”But the Son of God didn't respond. He was going around to all the towns and villages in Israel, “teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the Gospel of the Kingdom, and curing every disease and illness.”We continue reading,“At the sight of the crowds, his heart was moved with pity for thembecause they were troubled and abandoned,like sheep without a shepherd.”“Then he said to his disciples,“The harvest is abundant, but the laborers are few;so ask the master of the harvestto send out laborers for his harvest.”This Gospel shows the heart of Jesus in a very direct way. He does not look at the crowd as a problem to manage. He sees their wounds, confusion, fear, and spiritual hunger.Christ's compassion is not a vague emotion; it becomes healing, teaching, and a mission. His love always moves toward the person who is suffering.A final note: To pray for laborers is also to become willing to be sent by the Lord. People need shepherds, witnesses, teachers, confessors, parents, friends, and ordinary Christians who carry Christ's mercy into daily life.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Friends of the Rosary,Today, July 6, Catholics honor Maria Goretti (1890-1902) as the saint of the day, a paramount example of virtue, courage, and holiness who met a martyr's death.St. Maria was born near Ancona (Italy), the daughter of a poor peasant family. Maria was well known to her neighbors for her cheerfulness and piety.When she was twelve, she was a victim of assault; she preferred to die rather than to lose her virginity.When she refused to submit to the attacker, Alessandro Serenellis, a 20-year-old farmer, stabbed her 14 times.She was taken to the hospital, but she died while forgiving him.During imprisonment, the assassin repented. He later became a lay brother in a Capuchin monastery. Maria was beatified in 1947 and canonized in 1950. The repentant murderer sat next to her mother, Assunta, at the beatification, who also forgave him.It was also the first time a parent was present for their own child's canonization.With splendid courage, the virgin martyr surrendered herself to God and his grace and so gave her life to protect her virginity.In the homily at the canonization of Saint Maria Goretti, Pope Pius XII said,"Let us all, with God's grace, strive to reach the goal that the example of the virgin martyr, Saint Maria Goretti, sets before us. Through her prayers to the Redeemer, may all of us, each in his own way, joyfully try to follow the inspiring example of Maria Goretti, who now enjoys eternal happiness in heaven."We are all called to the pursuit of Christian virtue.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Friends of the Rosary,Today, July 4, the United States celebrates Independence Day. It's an iconic day: the 250th anniversary of the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776.That day, the Congress issued a Declaration of Independence, announcing "that these united colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent states."With France's help, the Americans defeated the British, and the English Parliament decided to make peace and accept American independence.With independence won, the thirteen states set out to form a new nation.This 4th of July, we recall the day when our country claimed its place among the family of nations, by being one country, under divine providence, sharing God's blessings with all the peoples of the earth.The Catholic Church in the U.S. incorporates into the liturgy a special Mass asking for peace, justice and truth, asking us to pray that God will strengthen and bless America and make this nation a haven of liberty and justice for all—born and unborn.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Friends of the Rosary,Today, July 3, we celebrate the Feast of St. Thomas, the Apostle, who at first did not believe, but immediately after became, for the Church, one of the first witnesses to her faith.He expressed the fervor of his regained faith: "My Lord and my God."Pope St. Gregory the Great said, "Thomas' unbelief has benefited our faith more than the belief of the other disciples."The Lord permitted the apostle to doubt after the resurrection, but He did not abandon him in doubt.

Friends of the Rosary,Today, in Matthew 9:1–8, the Gospel's main reading, Christ the Lord heals a paralytic after first forgiving his sins. "Your sins are forgiven." The Son of God forgives our sins because he doesn't want us to be paralyzed by darkness. He is bringing us to a new future, a deeper life of peace, hope, and fulfillment. Sin is our nonsense refusal to live in accordance with the big plans that God has for us, in this present life or in the next one. We truly need to be liberated from our burden. After our sins are forgiven, we can move forward liberated, like the paralyzed man in today's passage."Rise, pick up your stretcher, and go home." Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

15 Promises to those who say the rosary. Today's episode is a bit different. Today, there is no scripture verse. Instead, I am going to explain what the rosary is and then list the 15 promises given to those who pray it regularly. There is a lot that is going on in the world right now.  In our country and all around the world. Our country is pretty divided. We are kicking God out of this country one decision at a time. During this truly difficult time, I look to strengthen my faith and lean into God's grace, strength, and protection.  Who couldn't use a little more grace and strength right now? I have found a number of structured prayers that have really helped strengthen my faith.  The first of these is the rosary.  When I moved to New Jersey, one of the wives in Tony's squadron had started a home rosary group.  I did not know what that even meant, but I had just moved to a new place, and I did not know anyone.  I thought it would be nice to get out of the house and meet some new people.  I also knew I needed something more, as I had a newborn baby and was just learning how to be a mom.  A home rosary group is a group of people who gather at someone's home and say the rosary together.  One person leads either the whole rosary, or you can switch leaders each decade, whichever you prefer.  Whoever is leading the rosary says the first half of the prayer, and then everyone else says the second half of the prayer.  It was so nice to be gathered with a group of women who all wanted to say the rosary each week.  The rosary is a group of prayers that you say, usually using a set of rosary beads.  I knew there were many benefits to saying the rosary.  I have read them before.  There was a time, probably after I first read these promises, that I was saying them every day.  However, the enemy has a way of putting things in the way so that you are suddenly “too busy” to say the rosary, or he convinces you that if you can't do it perfectly, then you shouldn't bother.  Remember that the enemy is a master at half-truths and lies.  He does not want us saying the rosary because he knows how powerful it can be.  As soon as you begin to say the rosary faithfully, you will notice that things will begin to come up during the time you set aside for the rosary, or you will find yourself forgetting about the commitment.  I decided to talk with you about the Rosary today because I came upon the promises that Mary gave to us, and I remembered why I was saying the Rosary every day. I know the rosary is a longer prayer than most of us might be used to, but it is only 20-30 minutes out of your day.  If you get a full 8 hours of sleep at night, that means you are still awake for 16 hours.  That is 960 minutes in your day.  The rosary takes 20-30 minutes. The Blessed Virgin Mary promised to Saint Dominic and to all who follow that “Whatever you ask in the Rosary will be granted.”  She left for all Christians Fifteen Promises to those who recite the Holy Rosary.  They were imparted to Saint Dominic and Blessed Alan. 1. Whoever shall faithfully serve me by the recitation of the Rosary shall receive signal graces. 2. I promise my special protection and the greatest graces to all those who shall recite the Rosary.  3. The Rosary shall be a powerful armor against hell; it will destroy vice, decrease sin, and defeat heresies.  4. The Rosary will cause virtue and good works to flourish; it will obtain for souls the abundant mercy of God; it will withdraw the hearts of men from the love of the world and its vanities, and will lift them to the desire for eternal things. Oh, that souls would sanctify themselves by this means.  5. The soul which recommends itself to me by the recitation of the Rosary shall not perish.  6. Whoever shall recite the Rosary devoutly, applying himself to the consideration of its sacred mysteries, shall never be conquered by misfortune. God will not chastise him in His justice; he shall not perish by an unprovided death; if he be just, he shall remain in the grace of God and become worthy of eternal life.  7. Whoever shall have a true devotion for the Rosary shall not die without the sacraments of the Church.  8. Those who are faithful to recite the Rosary shall have during their life and at their death the light of God and the plenitude of His graces; at the moment of death, they shall participate in the merits of the saints in paradise.  9. I shall deliver from Purgatory those who have been devoted to the Rosary.  10. The faithful children of the Rosary shall merit a high degree of glory in Heaven.  11. You shall obtain all you ask of me by the recitation of the Rosary.  12. All those who propagate the Holy Rosary shall be aided by me in their necessities.  13. I have obtained from my Divine Son that all the advocates of the Rosary shall have for intercessors the entire celestial court during their life and at the hour of death.  14. All who recite the Rosary are my sons and daughters, and brothers and sisters of my only Son Jesus Christ.  15. The devotion of my Rosary is a great sign of predestination. I cannot believe all that is promised to us if we say the rosary.  I read through those this morning and just kept saying to myself, yup, I need that too.  Who couldn't use help destroying vices, or for their good works and virtue to flourish?  Mary, the Mother of Jesus, promised special protection and the greatest graces to those who say the rosary.  I don't know about you, but I could definitely use some special protection and all the graces I can get.  I know that I probably won't start saying the rosary every day without fail, because I am human and I often fail.  I have been reminded today what a blessing it is to say the rosary, and I am going to do my best to incorporate it into my daily routine.  After all, 20 minutes a day is less than the time it takes me to watch one episode on TV.  I have the time; I am just using it to do other things.  You do not have to say the rosary every day, even if you say it once a week, or once a month, or one decade a day, I bet you would see a change in your life.  Give it a try. What do you have to lose? Dear Heavenly Father, I ask you to bless all those listening to this episode today. Lord, we love you, and we ask you to help us in our time of need. We ask you to put in our hearts a desire to say the rosary. Lord, help us to see the importance of it. Help us to understand the importance of Mary in your plan for redemption. Help us to find time in our schedules to set aside to say the rosary. Thank you, Lord. We ask all of this in accordance with your will and in Jesus's holy name. Amen! Thank you so much for joining me on this journey to walk boldly with Jesus.

Friends of the Rosary,Today, June 30th, the Universal Church celebrates the Memorial of the First Martyrs of the Holy Roman Church to honor the nameless followers of Christ brutally killed by the evil Emperor Nero as scapegoats for the fire in Rome.Historians tell about a night of horror (August 15, 64 A.D.) when in the imperial parks Christians were brutally attacked and made into living torches to light the road for Nero's chariot.According to Tacitus, a "great multitude" of Christians were put to death because of their "hatred of the human race." Peter and Paul were probably among the victims.From 64 to 314, "Christian" was synonymous with "execution victim."Threatened by an army revolt and condemned to death by the Senate, Nero committed suicide in A.D. 68 at the age of thirty-one.Many of those who began to follow Jesus shared his suffering and death. The blood of martyrs has always been the seed of Christians.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Friends of the Rosary,Today, July 1, the Feast of St. Junípero Serra (1713–1784), we read in the Gospel (Matthew 8:28-34) how Jesus confronted the demonic torment of two possessed men.The most unsettling part was not only the presence of evil but the reaction of the townspeople: after witnessing Christ's power, they preferred that He leave. Grace has arrived, but they experience it as a disruption and prefer to remain attached to security and possessions.Jesus came not to make our compromises more comfortable, but to save us.Today's saint, St. Junípero Serra, a Spanish Franciscan priest known as the "Apostle of California", lived with missionary urgency. His motto was: “Always forward, never back.” That is a fitting answer to this Gospel.When Christ enters with authority, the Christian response is not retreat but movement toward Him, even when His grace unsettles what we have grown accustomed to.Only Jesus can bring true peace, because only Jesus has authority over sin, fear, and evil.St. Junípero Serra left Europe at age 35 to become a missionary. He founded the first nine of 21 Spanish missions in California, spanning from San Diego to San Francisco. His work helped spread Christianity and shape modern agriculture in California.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Friends of the Rosary,Today, June 29th, the Universal Church celebrates the Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul, apostles. They are the solid rock, the principal pillars, on which the Church is built. Both apostles were martyred under the reign of Emperor Nero, in Rome, then the capital of the Empire, around the year 64.Peter was crucified upside down, while Paul, a Roman citizen, was beheaded.St. Peter was buried on the hill of the Vatican on the very site of today's Basilica of St. Peter's. St. Paul was beheaded in the Via Ostia on the spot where now stands the basilica bearing his name.Among the Twelve Apostles, Peter became the spokesman, declaring: “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” At Pentecost, he delivered the first fiery sermon of the infant Church.Although not one of the Twelve, Paul is also called an apostle (the thirteenth apostle, the apostle to the Gentiles) after encountering the resurrected Jesus on the road to Damascus while persecuting Christians.Early church fathers, like St. Augustine, noted that even if they died on different days, they are celebrated together because of their intertwined legacies.In the Catholic Church, it is a holy day of obligation in some regions and is marked by the Pope with a Grand Papal Mass at St. Peter's Basilica.In many predominantly Catholic cities (especially in Rome, as well as in Latin America and Europe), the day is marked with local processions, traditional seafood feasts, and outdoor festivals.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Friends of the Rosary,In today's Sunday Gospel (Matthew 10:37-42), Jesus lays down the requirement for discipleship, for being a true Christian:“Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me,and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me;and whoever does not take up his crossand follow after me is not worthy of me.Whoever finds his life will lose it,and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it." "Whoever receives you receives me,and whoever receives me receives the one who sent me."If we truly want to enjoy a life in Christ with God, these are the conditions.It's a fact that many people embrace darkness and reject the path of faith and charity. Sadly, they opt for their own damnation.But we who freely and voluntarily have accepted the gift of faith, we must understand that we ourselves are temples of the Holy Spirit, and our Lord wants us to rejoice and have no fear.

Friends of the Rosary,The centurion in Capernaum, whose servant was healed, said to the Lord, as we read today (Matthew 8:5-17), when we celebrate the Memorial of Saint Cyril of Alexandria, bishop and doctor of the Church“Lord, I am not worthy to have you enter under my roof;only say the word and my servant will be healed."Jesus responded to him:“Amen, I say to you, in no one in Israel have I found such faith."Moreover, He announced:"I say to you, many will come from the east and the west,and will recline with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacobat the banquet in the Kingdom of heaven,but the children of the Kingdomwill be driven out into the outer darkness,where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth.”Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Friends of the Rosary,As we read today (Matthew 7:21-29), Jesus said to his disciples:“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,'will enter the Kingdom of heaven,but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven.”Not because we attend mass, receive the sacraments, and do deeds in the name of Jesus does it mean that we are holy and will attain salvation.Our good Lord is abundant in grace and wants our salvation. But our hearts must be clean — and we know deep down when that is the case!“Many will say to me on that day,‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name?Did we not drive out demons in your name?Did we not do mighty deeds in your name?'Then I will declare to them solemnly,‘I never knew you. Depart from me, you evildoers.'“Everyone who listens to these words of mine and acts on themwill be like a wise man who built his house on rock.”Difficulties and adversities will come, but if we live in communion with God, we will be able to withstand them.“The rain fell, the floods came,and the winds blew and buffeted the house.But it did not collapse; it had been set solidly on rock.And everyone who listens to these words of minebut does not act on themwill be like a fool who built his house on sand.The rain fell, the floods came,and the winds blew and buffeted the house.And it collapsed and was completely ruined.”"When Jesus finished these words,The crowds were astonished at his teaching,for he taught them as one having authority,and not as their scribes."Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

In this episode of the Latin Prayer Podcast, we explore the Prayer of St. Francis in Latin through a detailed word-by-word learning guide.
