ETERNAL WISDOM
“To recite the Rosary in fact means enrolling in the School of Mary and learning from her, the Mother and disciple of Christ how to live deeply and fully the requirements of Christian faith -- she was the first believer, the first to have an ecclesial life, she who in the Upper Room was the center of unity and love among the first Disciples of her Son."
(St. Pope John Paul II: Oct. 2, 1988)

PART I: VIDEO, “THE PRAYERS OF THE HOLY ROSARY”
[VIDEO TRANSCRIPT w/ LESSON NOTES RELEASED ON OUR PODCAST NEWSLETTER & via renovated Digital Toolkit for Rosary Leaders by May 2023.
Fr. Peter and Amelia model the format of a Public Rosary (leader / response) so loved by the Mother of God, according to St. Louis Marie de Montfort, and also instructed as a most efficacious approach to prayer by Jesus in the Gospel: "For where there are two or three gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them." (MT 18:20)
Note: The Fatima prayer taught by Our Lady in the apparitions in Portugal is not included in this recording, primarily due to the limits of the Imprimatur of the text; however, we will include this prayer in our Portuguese Rosary lessons as will an explanatory article from O'Terço / a future post when we return to our Eschatology 101 explorations. Padre Nuno etal. will assist with this exploration.
"For where there are two or three gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them." (MT 18:20)

LEARNING OBJECTIVES IN THE SCHOOL OF OUR LADY: LESSON 1
WRITING ACTIVITY: “ON RECITING THE HOLY ROSARY”
ROSARY CITATION EXERCISES:
HAVE YOUR STUDENTS DISCUSS / ANALYZE / DEEPEN THROUGH GROUP CONVERSATION THE CONCEPTS IN THE FOLLOWING CITATION:
"Reciting the Holy Rosary is not a matter of repeating formulas but, rather, of entering into confidential conversation with Mary, speaking to her, showing her our hopes, confiding our pain, opening our heart to her, declaring to her our willingness to accept the plan of god, promising faithfulness to her in all circumstances, and especially those which are difficult and painful, sure of her protection and certain that she will obtain for us from her Son the grace necessary for our salvation."
(ST. POPE JOHN PAUL II)
LETTER TO THE MOTHER OF GOD: In your classroom, family, RCIA meeting, parish group, youth group, home school — we invite you to write a confidential letter to Our Lady in your Rosary / Prayer Journal based on the above citation. Tell our her everything JPII suggests in the citation above. Or, focus on one aspect “showing her our hopes”, for instance, and expand.
ESSAY: In your journal, explore how this citation is true by giving reasons in a personal essay and argue how can the prayer of the Rosary become central to Our Lady functioning in your life to bring you to healing in the Wounds of Christ? For info on the Wounds of Christ defined by Fr. Chris Alar and Dr. Bob Schuchts, watch this video from Part 2 and use it as a video resource in your Bibliography.
HELP US SPREAD THE MESSAGE OF THE HOLY ROSARY
Our team invites you to use this video & the microtalks / newsletter to help all those you encounter — in so far as is possible — to renew their devotion to the Blessed Mother through the prayer of the Holy Rosary.
One year ago, Father Anthony Gramlich, MIC encouraged our team from his desk at the National Shrine of the Divine Mercy. He instructed us in this way:
“Use your skills as educators to find a creative way to teach the Holy Rosary through your podcast.”
One year after that spiritual direction, and 15 expert guests later, our team has learned more about the Rosary than we could have ever imagined — and we hope that the tools we’ve put together so far might somehow help you to assist anyone you encounter to rediscover the Holy Rosary, an urgent request of our Blessed Mother in her apparitions and a task repeatedly requested by St. Pope John Paul II in his discussions about the The Rosary: his “favorite prayer”.

1858 MARCH 25:
OUR LADY OF LOURDES
"On 25th March 1858, the day of the sixteenth apparition, Bernadette asked the “Lady” her name. The “Lady” replied in the local dialect: “Que soy era Immaculada Counceptiou”, which means “I am the Immaculate Conception”. The Immaculate Conception is “Mary conceived without sin, by the merits of the Cross of Christ” (definition of the dogma promulgated in 1854). Bernadette went to see the Parish priest straight away to give him the name of the “Lady”. He then realized it was the Mother of God who was appearing in the Grotto. Later, Mgr Laurence, Bishop of Tarbes, authenticated this revelation."
