Praying the Holy Rosary and the Fifteen Prayers

The Holy Rosary is a powerful and deeply meaningful prayer tradition in the Catholic faith. It combines the repetition of prayers with meditation on key events in the lives of Jesus Christ and the Blessed Virgin Mary. Additionally, there are the Fifteen Prayers, a set of prayers dedicated to the wounds and suffering of Jesus. Together, these devotions provide a beautiful way to connect with God and seek intercession from the Blessed Mother.
