Do you pray the Rosary well?
With well over 5,000,000 copies sold, The Secret of the Rosary is one of the most beloved classics of Catholic literature as it teaches its readers this very important and spiritually vital thing!
Written by St. Louis de Montfort, this short and revelatory book describes the many mysteries of the Rosary and teaches us how to pray it with proper devotion to Our Lady and her son, Jesus Christ.
St. Louis discusses the numerous intricacies and beauties of the Rosary with topics like:
- Origins of the Rosary
- Mysteries of the Rosary
- Miraculous effects of the Rosary
- Prayers of the Rosary
St. Louis’s humble but inspiring writing is the perfect way to reencounter the Rosary, or to try the devotion for the first time. A perpetual advocate for the Catholic Church’s honoring of the Blessed Virgin, St. Louis reveals her love for the Church in a new way in his meditations on the Holy Rosary.
St. Louis De Montfort lived in the 17th century, but his many works of holy Catholic literature have lasted and grown in popularity, even till the present day. Author of the eternal classic, True Devotion to Mary, St. Louis has been teaching the Church and its members valuable lessons about Marian devotion for centuries with enormous spiritual fruits to show for it.
With the holy instruction of St. Louis, you cannot fail to appreciate the greatest gift of Mary—the Holy Rosary. With it, we are sanctified and brought into the presence of God now and at the end of our earthly lives.

The Secret of the Rosary
What a holy gem this book is! St. Louis de Montfort will convince you of why we need to pray Rosary and how to pray it with the reverence and diligence Our Lady so often pleads of us. Several years ago, I bought a box of these books and gave them to everyone I knew and also set them out at my parish. I have had people tell me how this book started them praying the Rosary daily. I keep this book at my bedside and often read one of the "Roses" , which motivates me to pray the Rosary from the heart. It encouraged me to join the Confraternity of the Holy Rosary just recently. Every Catholic needs to have this book!

Secret of the Rosary
JMJ We learned how much the Blessed Virgin Mary loves us through the saints. We never forgot the beautiful Hail Mary Poem by Blessed Alan de a Roche, OP. "Whenever I say a Hail Mary: The court of heaven rejoices, And the earth Is lost in wonderment. And I despise the world, And my heart is brim-full Of the love of God....." We try to say our daily Rosary more attentively and slowly pondering the beautiful Hail Mary poem. Every home should have this in their home to read more then once as a family, especially in May and October.
