In an effort to deepen your faith this Lent, why not pray the Rosary with Dominicans

Fr. Isaiah Mary Molano, OP and Parochial Vicar at St. Dominic’s in San Francisco forwarded this Lenten opportunity to pray the Rosary with the Dominican community.

Fr. Isaiah Mary Molano says, “Lent offers us many opportunities to enliven our prayer lives.  This Lent, join the Rosary Confraternity.  Women and Men, for over 500 years, have devoted themselves to pray the rosary three times a week, contemplating the Passion of Jesus Christ.  You join the mission of the Dominican Order and receive spiritual benefits by your membership. ”

About the Rosary Confraternity

The Rosary Confraternity is a spiritual association (of the Catholic Church), the members of which strive to pray the entire Rosary during the course of each week. They form a union of countless hundreds of thousands of the faithful throughout the world who, along with their own intentions, include the intentions and needs of all its members, while they in turn pray for them.

Since the Holy Father has recently added the five luminous mysteries, we encourage members of the Confraternity to include that extra weekly Rosary. However, we have as yet received no official statement regarding this matter. Those who recite only the fifteen traditional mysteries will continue to share in the benefits of the Confraternity until some official source declares the contrary.

As Pope Leo XIII said in his apostolic constitution on the Confraternity, “whenever a person fulfills his obligation of reciting the Rosary according to the rule of the Confraternity, he includes in his intentions all its members, and they in turn render him the same service many times over.” (Ubi Primum (1898), n1)

Each member includes deceased fellow members as well; and thus he knows that in turn he will be included in the prayers of hundreds of thousands both now and hereafter. This led the Cure of Ars to say: “If anyone has the happiness of being in the Confraternity of the Rosary, he has in all corners of the world brothers and sisters who pray for him.” The deceased cannot be enrolled in the Confraternity.

Read the obligations, benefits, indulgences, and Fifteen Promises of the Blessed Virgin to Christians who faithfully pray the Rosary. There is also a Rosary Confraternity Prayer.
