Heaven's Weapon- The RosaryGod Reveals Plan to Save the World
"The greatest method of praying is the Rosary"- St. Francis de Sales
St. Thomas Aquinas preached 40 straight days in Rome on just the Hail Mary
"The Rosary is the scourge of the devil"- Pope Adrian VI
"The Rosary is a treasure of graces"- Pope Paul V
"The Rosary is THE Weapon"- Padre Pio
In the year 1214 while St. Dominic was trying to convert sinners without success, Our Lady appeared to him, gave him the Rosary and taught him how to use it. Many miraculous conversions resulted.
Ventimiglia, the author of an ancient history of the Carmelite Order, revealed how God inspired St. Dominic to prophesy that some day the Blessed Mother would give us two devotions to be known as the Rosary and the Brown Scapular, "And one day, through the Rosary and the Scapular she would save the world."
St. Dominic told Pope Innocent III that he had received a command from Heaven to establish the Confraternity of the Most Holy Rosary. The Holy Father gave his full approval and became a member himself. Joining this Confraternity brings more indulgences than any other.
The Fifteen Virtues begged for with the 10 Hail Marys in each of the Fifteen Mysteries of the Rosary
Our devotion is sometimes intensified if each decade is said for some particular intention. Such intentions are, of course, matter of private choice; but many will welcome the following suggestions. The first set is the Fifteen virtues while the second set of suggestions were given to us by Fr. Pere Monsabre, O.P., who for many years was the preacher at Notre Dame, Paris, on all great occasions

1. The Annunciation- Wisdom
2. The Visitation- Fraternal Charity
3. The Birth of Christ- Poverty of Spirit (Detachment)
4. The Presentation in the Temple- Spirit of Self-Sacrifice (Renunciation)
5. The Finding in the Temple- Obedience
SORROWFUL MYSTERIES
1. The Agony in the Garden- Courage (Fortitude)
2. The Scourging at the Pillar- Temperance & Purity

4. The Carrying of the Cross- Patience and Perseverance
5. The Crucifixion- Contrition for Sins
