Our Lady of the Rosary

The Rosary is my favourite prayer. A marvellous prayer! Marvellous in its simplicity and its depth.
(John Paul II)

The rosary is a very ancient and very simple prayer that the Church offers you so that you can come to love Jesus more and more, thanks to Mary. It's a bit like a chain – but not a chain for prisoners! It is a very light chain that links us to Heaven.
Each Hail Mary is like a rose that you offer to Mary. That's why this prayer is called the “rosary”, because the word originally meant a rose-garden. 

How do we pray the rosary? It's very simple. All we have to do is say five decades of the rosary while thinking about the life of Jesus.

On the cross, 1 I Believe in God (Apostle's Creed)
1 Our Father on the big bead
10 Hail Marys on the little beads
and we end up with 1 Glory Be to the Father
