Our Lady of the Rosary
Our Lady of the Rosary
On Oct. 7, the Church celebrates the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary, a feast that reminds us of the power of prayer, especially in times of trial. In fact, it commemorates a naval battle in 1571 that many say was one of the most important in the history of the world and may have saved Western civilization. Father Donald Calloway, MIC, shares that the Rosary is a spiritual weapon and a source of hope, uniting Christians in trust and devotion to Mary, who always leads us to Her Son.
Then hear Fr. Mark Baron, MIC, in conversation with Dr. Jem Sullivan of The Catholic University of America in Washington, DC, on sacred art and how beauty itself can evangelize.
