Our Lady of the Rosary

Filed Under: Feasts Holy Days and Seasons

Thursday, October 7, 2021

October 7 is the feast day of Our Lady of the Rosary, also known as Our Lady of Victory. This feast day commemorates a victory at sea to fend off Turkish invaders in the 16th century. Europeans were encouraged to pray the rosary to avoid invasion. Pope St. Pius V attributed the victory to the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary afterwards.

This is a good day to learn more about the rosary and to pray a rosary.

Make a Rosary Slide Bracelet or Key-Chain
A rosary slide bracelet or keychain is a nice craft to remind children and teens to pray. I like making the key-chain which can actually be used for keys for teenagers. Or if they don't need a key chain they can hang it on their backpack or just keep it in their pocket to remind them to pray.
Say a Rosary With Your Family or Youth Group
The rosary is one of the most misunderstood Catholic devotions. While some non-Catholics see it as worshiping Mary, it is in fact focused on Christ. The mysteries of the rosary are based on important events in the life of Christ. When we meditate on these mysteries we consider these events and how they relate to our own lives and our relationship with Jesus Christ.
Rosary Comic Book
This comic book is a colorful and engaging way for children to learn about the mysteries of the Rosary. It includes the Joyful, Luminous, Sorrowful, and Glorious Mysteries.  Recommended for children ages 9-12.
