2. The Rosary is a
priceless treasure
The Rosary is a source and a
store-house of countless
blessings.
3. Crown of roses.
Precious stones.
Gold coins to Heaven.
Innumerable indulgences.
Treasure of graces.
--- by St. Louis de Montfort
4. The Rosary is a priceless treasure which is
inspired by God.
Almighty God has attached to it grace in
this life and glory in the next.
Our Lady not only blesses those who
preach her Rosary but she highly rewards
all those who, by their example, get others
to say it.
5. (1). “CROWN of ROSES” for Mary
Our Lady has revealed to
several people that each time
they say a Hail Mary they are
giving her a beautiful rose, and
that each complete Rosary
makes her a crown of roses.
Every time people say the
Rosary devoutly they place on
the heads of Jesus and Mary
153 white roses and sixteen
red roses.
6. Crowns for ourselves.
"Let us crown ourselves with the roses of the
holy Rosary.” So by all means we should eagerly
crown ourselves with these roses from heaven,
and recite the entire Rosary every day, that is
to say, three rosaries each of five decades, which
are like three little wreaths or crowns of flowers.”
Our Lady once said to Blessed Alan, "I want
those who are devoted to my Rosary to have my
Son's grace and blessing during their lifetime, at
death and after their death. I want them to be freed
from all slavery so that they will be like kings, with
crowns on their heads, sceptres in their hands and
to reign in eternal glory. Amen
7. The Jesuit brother, Alphonsus Rodriguez, used
to say his Rosary with such fervour that he
often saw a red rose come out of his mouth
at each Our Father, and a white rose at each
Hail Mary, both equal in beauty and differing
only in colour.
The rose is the queen of flowers and the
Rosary is the rose of devotions and the most
important one. Being heavenly flowers, these
roses will never fade or lose their beauty .
8. (2)Precious stones
1 Hail Mary =
15 precious stones!
"He who honours his Mother (the Blessed
Virgin) is as one who lays up a treasure."
Present her every day with at least fifty Hail
Marys, for each one is worth fifteen precious
stones, which are more pleasing to her than
all the riches of this world put together .”-----St.
Louis Montfort
9. 3. Gold coins: One day Saint Gertrude had
a vision of our Lord counting gold coins. She
summoned the courage to ask him what he was
doing, and he answered, "I am counting the
Hail Mary’s that you have said. This is the
money with which you purchase heaven."
10. (4) Treasure of indulgences
An immense treasure of indulgences which
are applicable to the souls in Purgatory. The
Rosary is the "Queen of indulgenced
devotions."
The Confraternity is the most indulgenced
pious association of the faithful. This is
what led St. Alphonsus to say: "After Holy
Mass the best means of relieving the souls
in Purgatory is to join the Confraternity."
11. (5) Treasure of graces
We please our Lord when we ask him for
graces, and if we do not ask he makes a
loving complaint, "Until now you have not
asked anything.... Ask and you will receive, seek
and you will find, knock and the door will be
opened to you." He has bound himself by
a promise: that his eternal Father would
grant everything we ask in his name.
It pleases our Lady to ask her for graces.
“What joy my motherly heart feels when you ask
me of something. Expect everything and ask
everything of me.”
12. "And let this not seem incredible to you; it is easy
for me because I am the Mother of the King of
heaven, and he calls me full of grace. And being
filled with grace, I am able to dispense it freely to
my dear children."
"There is no surer means of calling down God's
blessings upon the family than the daily recitation
of the Rosary" (Pope Pius XII).
