• Jan 27, 2021, Holy Rosary Today 7:30 pm ET, YouTube.com/TheRosaryNetwork • Audio Podcast available by 6:00 pm ET The world in its present form is passing away, wrote St. Paul in his letter to the Corinthians (1 Cor 7:29) this Sunday. Certainly, time flies, and everything fades away quickly. In just three weeks, on February 17, we will celebrate Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent. Catholics will be marked on the forehead with a cross of ash. We will be invited to repent and believe, while remembered that "we are dust, and to dust, you shall return." (Genesis 3:19). The good news is that our life is eternal. As we say every day in the Holy Rosary, Jesus Christ, with his life, death, and resurrection, purchased for us the rewards of eternal life. We pray the Glorious Mysteries today. Ave Maria! [Written by Mikel A. | TheRosaryNetwork.org, New York] ___
• Jan 20, 2021, Holy Rosary Today 7:30 pm ET, YouTube.com/TheRosaryNetwork • Audio Podcast available by 6:00 pm ET Prayer brings the power of heaven down to earth. In Matthew 18:18-20, Jesus spoke about it: “Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.” Across history, mankind has experienced the power of prayer. History is not linear, because the Heavens listen to the petitions of the faithful. Mother Teresa once said, "God shapes the world by prayer. The more praying there is in the world, the better the world will be." Every day, we recite the Memorare. This prayer reminds us that the Virgin Mary, in her mercy, always hears and answers us. Ave Maria! [Written by Mikel A | TheRosaryNetwork.org, New York] ___ On this day, we pray for the sanctity of life and freedom in America. By holding the Holy Rosary of Mary, we also invoke St Michael the Archangel, and St Joseph—Terror of Demons—to help us to discern the truth and avoid the snares and falsehoods of Evil. We are moving into a smaller, spiritualized Church, built not to please the world but committed to the eternal truth of Jesus Christ. We turn ourselves to the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus. We entrust our hopes and anxieties in the Divine Will. ___
• Jan 19, 2021, Holy Rosary Today 7:30 pm ET, YouTube.com/TheRosaryNetwork • Audio Podcast available by 6:00 pm ET Our own body is "a temple of the Holy Spirit", as St. Paul wrote and we read this past Sunday (1 Cor 6:13). Therefore, we need to avoid sexual immorality with our bodies. "The body is not for immorality, but for the Lord," Paul taught us in the first century. This is important because if we disrespect our body we commit sin and distance ourselves from the truth and joy of Jesus Christ. We want to thrive in this earthly life and gain eternity, right? Why playing then against our own interests? The Evildoer, along with its followers, twists our minds and pushes us into falsehoods until we fall. The dominant culture around doesn't help, either. But as disciples of Jesus Christ, we know what's right and what's wrong. Temptations, sexual—or any other nature—are out there, and we realize that we don't have the strength to overcome all of them. To achieve the virtue of purity—the fruit of the second sorrowful mystery today—we need to continuously invoke the Helper, the Holy Spirit, and his spouse, the Virgin Mary. Ave Maria!

• Jan 18, 2021, Holy Rosary Today 7:30 pm ET, YouTube.com/TheRosaryNetwork • Audio Podcast available by 6:00 pm ET Many saints—St. Bernard, St. Bonaventure, and St. Louis de Montfort, among them—reminded us that there are three steps to go to God. The first and most suited to our capacity is the Virgin Mary. The second is Jesus Christ, and the third is God the Father. The Most Holy Mary is our mediatrix of intercession. She is the co-redeemer and most-perfect disciple of Jesus Christ. We meet Jesus through Mary, as the second Luminous Mystery teaches us. And we go to God the Father through Jesus Christ, as Our Saviour told us. "No one comes to the Father except through me." (John 14:6). Why so many Christians miss these three steps for salvation? The Holy Rosary is the answer not only for them for all mankind. Ave Maria! We celebrate today Martin Luther King Jr. Day. We honor his legacy as a leading voice against racism. Hope and transformative love were central to his message. We pray for the end of the sin of racism and hate. The love and light of Jesus Christ is always the answer.

• Jan 17, 2021, Holy Rosary Today 7:30 pm ET, YouTube.com/TheRosaryNetwork • Audio Podcast available by 6:00 pm ET "We establish solid devotion to our Blessed Lady only to establish more perfectly the devotion to Jesus Christ, and to put forward an easy and secure means for finding Jesus Christ." St. Louis de Montfort wrote this in his book "True Devotion to Mary" at the beginning of the nineteenth century. We come to Jesus by His Holy Mother. Mary's desire is to unite us to Her Divine Son. The union between Jesus and the Virgin Mary is profound. By Mary, Jesus came, and it is by her that we must go to Him. By reciting the Holy Rosary, we recognize that the Most Holy Mary connects Earth and Heaven. Ave Maria! [Written by Mikel A | TheRosaryNetwork.org, New York]
