1000 Rosaries
Challenge
Together In Prayer
You do not have to be Catholic to say the rosary.
Although the rosary is a very special prayer to those who say it, if you are not comfortable with saying the rosary, we welcome you to join us in praying 1000 prayers for peace with us.
We welcome our Non-Catholic visitors to take the peace challenge with us.
Some of you may like to learn more about the rosary which is an aide to meditative prayer. You may check out a few web-sites like:

This has some nice explainations beginning with
the concern that the rosary seems like a repetitious
prayer and directly violates the directive from
Jesus in Matthew, verse 6:7. It goes on to explain
that the words are quoted greetings to Mary from
the Bible. The Angel said, "Hail Mary full of
grace. The Lord is with you". Elizabeth is quoted ,
"Blessed art Thou among women, and blessed is the
fruit of Thy womb, Jesus."
These words are repeated in the rosary, but are
used as a vehicle to help you meditate on the
mysteries of the rosary, which are a synopsis of the
gospels and the life of Jesus..
