Description
There has been no greater promoter of the family Rosary than Venerable Patrick Peyton. The “Rosary priest” dedicated his life to the Blessed Mother and the devotion most commonly prayed for her intercession.
In The Family that Prays Together Stays Together, you and your loved ones will pray the Rosary along with Peyton, immersing yourselves into the rhythms and themes of this prayer, deepening your relationship with Mary, and intensifying your bond with her Son, Jesus Christ.
“The family that prays together stays together.”
Peyton shared this motto with millions worldwide through radio, television, and his famous Rosary rallies as he spread devotion to pray the Rosary together as a family. This book carries on Peyton’s legacy and will help you and your loved ones work through each of the four sets of mysteries by reciting one decade a day for a month.
Each weekday includes
- a prompt to start with the Our Father, just as each decade of the Rosary begins;
- a quote from scripture that illuminates the life of Jesus or Mary according to that mystery;
- a brief reflection drawing upon the words and life of Fr. Peyton;
- a prompt to recite the Hail Mary ten times, followed by the Glory Be; and
- a concluding prayer that sends you into the rest of your day with a clear point of focus.
Each week you will encounter a new mystery of the Rosary—Joyful, Luminous, Sorrowful, or Glorious. From Monday through Friday, you will pray one decade a day; on Saturday, you will pray the entire Mystery together; and on Sunday, you will record in the book your insights, joys, concerns, or intentions from the week to take to Mass.
Whether you are new to the Rosary or have been praying it your whole life, this book will help you approach this ancient prayer with the enthusiasm and love of one of its greatest advocates. With your prayer guided by Peyton, you will discover strength and peace in a renewed connection with God through Mary, our Mother of Grace.
