The Devotion and Power of the Holy Rosary:

St. Louis de Montfort, a profound devotee of the Blessed Virgin Mother and a fervent ambassador of the Holy Rosary, expressed with utmost conviction: "I shall affirm, even with my own blood, that whoever, or whatever family, devoutly prays the Rosary every day will never perish."

The devotion to the Holy Rosary was emphasized by the Blessed Virgin Mother Mary herself during Her apparition at Fatima to the three children. Throughout history, Rosary prayers have served as a potent remedy for even the most dreaded diseases, a formidable defense against satanic influences, a guaranteed formula for fostering unity and integrity within families, and a proven means for obtaining favors from God Almighty. The Universal Catholic Church dedicates the month of October to the prayer of the Holy Rosary, with the Feast of the Holy Rosary celebrated worldwide on the 7th of October each year.

St. Don Bosco earnestly implored parents, emphasizing the significance of the Family Rosary as the loving link that binds children to their parents. He encouraged parents to love their children, correct their mistakes, forgive them, and daily offer Rosary prayers together, believing that such practices would fortify families and bring forth peace and joy. He admonished devotees never to overlook the daily recitation of the Rosary, reminding them of the boundless love and blessings bestowed upon them by their Holy Mother.

The Blessed Mother made a promise to St. Dominic, assuring him, "Whatever you ask through the Rosary will be granted."

Countless remarkable incidents and miracles, both past and present, are attributed to the meditation and recitation of the Rosary. One recent account, as reported in a printed media source, appears almost miraculous: Despite the detonation of atomic bombs in Japan, a Jesuit Monastery housing eight monks, located just one kilometer away from the explosion, was miraculously spared. It is believed that their fervent prayers and devotion to the Holy Rosary, along with their earnest plea for protection to the Holy Mother, played a pivotal role in their miraculous survival.
