THE ROSARY IN TIMES OF PANDEMIC - CRISIS AND HEALTH ROSARY EBOOK
The Crisis
and Health Rosary eBook, which has been uploaded to the Documents
page, aims at helping the faithful to contemplate the Gospel with Mary, our
Mother, in the light of a world in crisis generated by Covid-19 and open our
hearts to the hope of the Good News of Jesus Christ. You will find real testimonies
from people affected by the pandemic, in several ways. The writers, members
of Vatican Covid-19 Commission, intended to guide the prayer by linking some
of the painful and struggling stories of people from all over the world with
the contemplation of the different mysteries of the Rosary.
These
are times of suffering, division and uncertainty. But at the same time,
this challenging moment is an opportunity to change and to prepare a healthier
future. With our gaze fixed on Jesus and contemplating the luminous, sorrowful,
joyous and glorious mysteries of His life, we can embrace the hope of
the Kingdom of God that opens us to new horizons. Guided by the Virgin
Mary, who knew how to keep things in her suffering heart, let us gather
together in prayer while we work for the wellbeing of people, institutions
and the planet. The Churchs common action in the face of this pandemic
finds its source in prayer, in the service of Christ's mission. This meditative
Rosary can help many people in these moments of crisis because Mary, our
Mother, is a powerful ally to look up to with hope at the times to come.
