Our Immaculate Conception Parish Rosary Altar Society meets once a month in the Marian Hall. We first pray the Rosary in honor of Our Blessed Virgin Mother, Mary. Afterwards, we plan the year’s events, discuss the monthly agenda, send get well cards to ailing members, and discern with our pastor the needs of the altar for the celebration of the sacraments.
Meeting Dates:
The Monday after the third Sunday of every month: 7:00pm in church for Rosary prayer; 7:30pm in Marian Hall for meeting and social.
Power of the Rosary
In praying the Rosary, the true power found in this simple and beautiful prayer, is that it soaks the soul in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus – and therefore unites the soul to Him who has purchased for us the rewards of eternal life, and also unites our hearts to Mary, in her most perfect love.
Rosary Quotes
“If you wish to convert anyone to the fullness of the knowledge of Our Lord and of His Mystical Body, then teach him the Rosary. One of two things will happen. Either he will stop saying the Rosary — or he will get the gift of faith.” ― Venerable Fulton J. Sheen
“The word rosary means “Crown of Roses,” that is to say that every time people say the Rosary devoutly they place a crown of one hundred and fifty-three white roses and sixteen red roses upon the head of Jesus and Mary. Being heavenly flowers these roses will never fade or lose their exquisite beauty.” ― Saint Louis De Monfort
“The Rosary is the ‘weapon’ for these times.” ― Saint Padre Pio
Prayer. O God, whose only begotten Son, by His life, death, and resurrection, has purchased for us the rewards of eternal salvation. Grant, we beseech Thee, that while meditating on these mysteries of the most holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary, that we may imitate what they contain and obtain what they promise, through Christ our Lord. Amen.
