• October 15, 2021, Rosary Today 7:30 pm ET, YouTube.com/TheRosaryNetwork • Audio Podcast available by 6:00 pm ET Today is the Memorial Day of St. Teresa of Jesus, also known as St. Teresa of Avila, the sixteenth-century Spanish mystic and Doctor of the Church, founder of the Carmelite Discalced order, and author of three classic spiritual books — that are available online for free: The Life of St. Teresa of Jesus, Interior Castle, and Way of Perfection. With the help of St. John of the Cross, she reformed most of the Carmelite convents and founded new ones. Teresa of Avila achieved the highest degree of prayer and through prayer obtained an amazing knowledge of divine things and reached a mystical union with God. St. Teresa composed these well-known lines, which we can use as simple prayer to calm our nerves: Let nothing disturb you. Let nothing frighten you. All is passing. God ever remains. Patience obtains all. Whoever possesses. God cannot lack anything. God alone suffices. Ave Maria! Jesus, I Trust In You! St. Teresa of Avila, Pray for Us! + Mikel A. | TheRosaryNetwork.org, New York
• October 8, 2021, Rosary Today 7:30 pm ET, YouTube.com/TheRosaryNetwork • Audio Podcast available by 6:00 pm ET Learning something requires time and commitment. We don’t learn without effort. Praying the Rosary is not easy. And we might have doubts. In an attempt to address the main questions, we have produced a short, online video course. It’s free and open to anyone. The goal is to attract more souls to the Marian prayer. The Blessed Virgin Mary wants us to recite her Rosary every day. She did this request in Fatima, Portugal, over a century ago. The Rosary is a tool of truth and mercy that brings us closer to her divine Son. In these confusing times, this is exactly what we need: to repent, convert, ask for forgiveness, and embrace the fullness of joy and truth of Jesus Christ. The Immaculate Mary, Queen of the Universe, became the first servant of the Lord, and through her Rosary she teaches us how to follow Jesus Christ in our daily dwelling. Ave Maria! Jesus, I Trust In You! Our Lady of the Rosary, Help of Christians, Pray for Us! + Mikel A. | TheRosaryNetwork.org, New York • Free Online Course: The Rosary of the Virgin Mary: Essential Questions [We quietly released this course on the feast day of the three archangels, Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael. We dedicate this online class to Maria Blanca, for her complete health recovery in the Divine Will and under the mantle of the Blessed Virgin Mary.]
• October 7, 2021, Rosary Today 7:30 pm ET, YouTube.com/TheRosaryNetwork • Audio Podcast available by 6:00 pm ET On October 7, the universal Church celebrates the feast of Our Lady of the Rosary, also known as "Our Lady of Victory." This memorial day was instituted by Pope St. Pius V in thanksgiving for the naval victory over the Turkish Ottoman Empire at the Battle of Lepanto on this day in the year 1570. This victory saved Western Hemisphere from being dominated by the forces of Islam. Pope St. Pius V attributed the victory to the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, who was invoked on the day of the battle through a campaign to pray the Rosary throughout Europe. As Marian Pope Leo XIII wrote in one of his encyclicals, "It has always been the habit of Catholics in danger and in troublous times to fly for refuge to Mary." Ave Maria! Jesus, I Trust In You!

• October 6, 2021, Rosary Today 7:30 pm ET, YouTube.com/TheRosaryNetwork • Audio Podcast available by 6:00 pm ET Another teaching of Jesus Christ that our modern society rejects refers to the sanctity of marriage, naturally between a male and female. In one of the readings of last Sunday (Mk 10:2-16 or 10:2-12), Jesus explained how God joins together marriages, making wife and husband one single flesh. Exactly the same way that it happened at the beginning of creation with Adam and Eve. The holy marriage is part of the divine salvific plan for men and women. Our society rejects God and therefore rejects both natural and sacramental marriages. This reflects how sinful we all are. Instead, we defy the Holy Trinity and engineer ideologies that only benefit Satan, the enemy of the human race. Obviously, these false ideas cause despair and murder here on Earth and eternal condemnation for the next life. What an awful deal for all of us! Our society urgently needs to convert and ask for forgiveness. There is no other way. Ave Maria! Jesus, I Trust In You! St. Maria Faustina Kowalska, Pray for Us! + Mikel A. | TheRosaryNetwork.org, New York
• October 5, 2021, Rosary Today 7:30 pm ET, YouTube.com/TheRosaryNetwork • Audio Podcast available by 6:00 pm ET Today, Tuesday, October 5, we honor, among other saints, one of the favorites of The Rosary Network: St. Maria Faustina Kowalska, the contemporary mystic, a Polish nun who became the apostle of the Divine Mercy. Jesus Christ entrusted her with the mission of proclaiming to the whole world the old, eternal message of his merciful love for all people, especially sinners. In 1931, Jesus appeared to Faustina as the King of Divine Mercy. He asked her to have a picture painted of him as she saw him — clothed in white, with red and white rays of light streaming from his heart. The rays represent the blood and water that flowed from the side of Jesus on the cross. Under the image are the words, "Jesus, I trust in you." The Savior appeared to her several more times; Faustina recorded them in the diary. St. Faustina died of tuberculosis at age 33, suffering greatly in her final years. With St. Maria Faustina Kowalska started the Divine Mercy Chaplet devotion, a five to ten minutes prayer recited over the beads of the Holy Rosary. Ave Maria! Jesus, I Trust In You!
