'Roses for India': A Nation Entrusted to the Marian Rosary


Roses for India: A call to pray the Rosary Prayers

At critical moments in history, God moves hearts not through noise or power, but through prayer. Roses for India is one such silent yet powerful spiritual movement—born from faith, sustained by prayer, and entrusted entirely to the loving intercession of the Holy Virgin Mother Mary.

This noble initiative invites Catholics and Marian devotees across the world to unite in a single intention:
to offer at least 150 crore (1.5 billion) Holy Rosary prayers by the year 2030, for India and the world.

Each Rosary offered is a spiritual rose placed in the hands of our Heavenly Mother, who never fails to present our petitions to Her Divine Son.


The Intention: For Families, the Church, and the Nation

The heart of Roses for India lies in its intentions—deep, compassionate, and urgently relevant to our times.

Through this Rosary mission, we pray:

  • For families, especially families in India, that they may be blessed, protected, and strengthened in love

  • For children, that they may grow in good values, moral clarity, and living faith

  • For the protection of lives in the womb, that every unborn child may be welcomed and safeguarded

  • For the Church, that she may be sanctified, purified, and renewed in holiness

  • For unity among different Christian churches, that divisions may heal and true communion may deepen

  • For the all-round development, protection, and prosperity of India

  • That the nation may move in the right direction, guided by truth, justice, peace, and compassion

  • For the peaceful rest of the billions who have lived and died in India, that God may grant them eternal rest

  • For special blessings upon every individual who prays and participates in this noble initiative

These intentions are vast—but so is the power of united prayer.


No Registration. No Membership. Only a Resolution of the Heart

One of the most beautiful aspects of Roses for India is its simplicity and spiritual freedom.

To become part of this mission:

  • No formal membership is required

  • No registration or reporting is needed

It is enough to resolve in your mind that the Marian Rosaries you pray are being offered for this intention.

Every Rosary prayed with this interior offering is lovingly accepted by God for the mission of Roses for India.


Each Person Decides Their Offering

Participation is entirely personal and flexible.

Each devotee may decide:

  • How many Rosaries they wish to dedicate

  • Whether it is one Rosary a day, or more

For example, I have inwardly offered (promised):

“From the Rosaries I pray daily, I dedicate at least two for the intention of 'Roses for India'.”

Even one Rosary a day, when prayed faithfully, carries immense spiritual weight.


The Power of Many Small Offerings

If every Marian devotee who comes across this initiative offers at least one Rosary daily, the target of 150 crore Rosaries can be achieved very easily. In fact, the total will rise far beyond what we can imagine.

What seems small in isolation becomes monumental when united in love and faith.

This is how God works:


A Loving Invitation

Roses for India is not just a prayer challenge—it is a call to spiritual responsibility, a Marian mission for our times.

Please:

  • Share this noble intention with your family, friends, and prayer groups

  • Invite one and all to participate

  • Encourage others to offer at least one daily Rosary

Let us entrust India, the Church, our families, our children, and our future into the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

May our Blessed Mother gather these Rosaries as roses,
may she intercede for us powerfully,
and may God bless India abundantly through this humble offering of prayer.

🌹🙏
One Nation. One Intention. Millions of Rosaries.
