Monday, October 3rd

DAY 1

MORNING PRAYER

In the Catholic Faith, October is the month dedicated to the Holy Rosary and our Lady, the Blessed Virgin Mary. The Rosary, which seems to first have been prayed in the 13th century, is a series of Hail Mary prayers and Our Father prayers that seek intercessions for a prayer request. The Rosary is a good way to bring our concerns to God.  

O God,

We thank you for the ability to pray to you

to build our relationship with you,

or when we have a need.

Thank you for the rosary

which helps us focus on prayer,

as we ask for an intention.

Guide us in our faith,

as we make this prayer in the name of Jesus.  

Amen
