• July 10, 2026, Today’s Rosary on YouTube | Daily broadcast at 7:30 pm ET • The Audio Podcast of this Rosary is Available Here Now! Today’s Gospel (Matthew 10:16-23) continues Jesus’ mission discourse, with apostles sent “like sheep in the midst of wolves,” so Christ calls them to be both wise and innocent. Catholic discipleship is not naivety. It is courage without fear. In the first reading, "Return, O Israel, to the LORD," we observe that God does not merely demand repentance; He promises healing. “I will love them freely.” The Psalm answers with the prayer every sinner needs: “Create a clean heart in me, O God.” Before we can witness before others, we have to let God restore the heart within us. Also, the martyr saints of today, Sts. Rufina and Secunda highlight the Gospel's message. These Roman Christian martyrs show us that fidelity and love for the Lord are costly. So let's be gentle, not weak. Wise, but not calculating. If pressure comes, let's trust that the Spirit of the Father can speak through us at the hour we need Him. Ave Maria! Come, Holy Spirit, come! To Jesus through Mary! Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.

• July 3, 2026, Today’s Rosary on YouTube | Daily broadcast at 7:30 pm ET • The Audio Podcast of this Rosary is Available Here Now! Today, July 3, we celebrate the Feast of St. Thomas, the Apostle, who at first did not believe, but immediately after became, for the Church, one of the first witnesses to her faith. He expressed the fervor of his regained faith: "My Lord and my God." Pope St. Gregory the Great said, "Thomas' unbelief has benefited our faith more than the belief of the other disciples." The Lord permitted the apostle to doubt after the resurrection, but He did not abandon him in doubt. By his doubt and by his touching the sacred wounds, the apostle became a witness to the truth of the resurrection. St. Thomas preached the Gospel in Asia beyond the frontiers of the Roman Empire, probably in Persia and possibly as far afield as India. After he had converted numerous tribes to Christianity, at Calamina (near Madras in India) he suffered martyrdom by being pierced with lances at the king's command. Ave Maria! Come, Holy Spirit, come! To Jesus through Mary! Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.

• July 2, 2026, Today’s Rosary on YouTube | Daily broadcast at 7:30 pm ET • The Audio Podcast of this Rosary is Available Here Now! Today, in Matthew 9:1–8, the Gospel's main reading, Christ the Lord heals a paralytic after first forgiving his sins. "Your sins are forgiven." The Son of God forgives our sins because he doesn't want us to be paralyzed by darkness. He is bringing us to a new future, a deeper life of peace, hope, and fulfillment. Sin is our nonsense refusal to live in accordance with the big plans that God has for us, in this present life or in the next one. We truly need to be liberated from our burden. After our sins are forgiven, we can move forward liberated, like the paralyzed man in today's passage. "Rise, pick up your stretcher, and go home." Ave Maria! Come, Holy Spirit, come! To Jesus through Mary! Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.

• July 1, 2026, Today’s Rosary on YouTube | Daily broadcast at 7:30 pm ET • The Audio Podcast of this Rosary is Available Here Now! Today, July 1, the Feast of St. Junípero Serra (1713–1784), we read in the Gospel (Matthew 8:28-34) how Jesus confronted the demonic torment of two possessed men. The most unsettling part was not only the presence of evil but the reaction of the townspeople: after witnessing Christ’s power, they preferred that He leave. Grace has arrived, but they experience it as a disruption and prefer to remain attached to security and possessions. Jesus came not to make our compromises more comfortable, but to save us. Today’s saint, St. Junípero Serra, a Spanish Franciscan priest known as the "Apostle of California", lived with missionary urgency. His motto was: “Always forward, never back.” That is a fitting answer to this Gospel. When Christ enters with authority, the Christian response is not retreat but movement toward Him, even when His grace unsettles what we have grown accustomed to. Only Jesus can bring true peace, because only Jesus has authority over sin, fear, and evil. St. Junípero Serra left Europe at age 35 to become a missionary. He founded the first nine of 21 Spanish missions in California, spanning from San Diego to San Francisco. His work helped spread Christianity and shape modern agriculture in California. Ave Maria! Come, Holy Spirit, come! To Jesus through Mary! Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.

• June 30, 2026, Today’s Rosary on YouTube | Daily broadcast at 7:30 pm ET • The Audio Podcast of this Rosary is Available Here Now! Today, June 30th, the Universal Church celebrates the Memorial of the First Martyrs of the Holy Roman Church to honor the nameless followers of Christ brutally killed by the evil Emperor Nero as scapegoats for the fire in Rome. Historians tell about a night of horror (August 15, 64 A.D.) when in the imperial parks Christians were brutally attacked and made into living torches to light the road for Nero's chariot. According to Tacitus, a "great multitude" of Christians were put to death because of their "hatred of the human race." Peter and Paul were probably among the victims. From 64 to 314, "Christian" was synonymous with "execution victim." Threatened by an army revolt and condemned to death by the Senate, Nero committed suicide in A.D. 68 at the age of thirty-one. Many of those who began to follow Jesus shared his suffering and death. The blood of martyrs has always been the seed of Christians. Ave Maria! Come, Holy Spirit, come! To Jesus through Mary!
