Just as a church is more than a building, a Rosary is more than just a linked set of beads, or simply a prayer aid. The Mysteries of the Rosary center on the events of Christ's life, repetition in the Rosary is meant to lead one into restful and contemplative prayer related to each Mystery. And just as a church can ignite particular feelings and memories, so too can a Rosary, bringing us on a unique path to our goal of welcoming Christ in our hearts.
In this video, Jacob Smith, a third-year candidate with the Priests of the Sacred Heart, shares the stories behind several of his favorite rosaries. He includes his first Rosary, one that he received in Rome shortly before his conversion to Catholicism. "It was the first Rosary that I prayed the Rosary with," he said.
What helps you in your prayer? What stories are behind things that you keep close to you, such as a prayer card, a crucifix, an icon, or a Rosary?
-----------------
We are the Priests of the Sacred Heart, a Roman Catholic religious community of brothers and priests. In some parts of the world, we are known as “Dehonians” in reference to our founder, Fr. Leo John Dehon. We are also referred to as “SCJs,” the initials of the official name of the congregation: “Sacerdotum Corde Jesu.”
We live in community, are inspired by daily Eucharistic Adoration, and in a fragmented world we believe unity to be possible. Our ministries are diverse, as are our members. We serve in many languages and come from many countries and cultures. Dehonians seek to serve people from all facets of society, yet always with a preferential option for the poor.
Are you called to a life of prayer and service based in the love of the Sacred Heart? Are you called to religious life as a priest or brother?
