Why Pray the Rosary
Why pray, why pray the Rosary?
"Whoever prays is certainly saved. He who does not is certainly danmed. All the blessed have been saved by prayer. All the damned have been lost through not praying. If they had prayed they would not have been lost. And this is, and will be their greateest torment in hell: to think how easily they might have been saved, just by asking God for His grace, but that now it is too late - their time of prayer is gone." - St. Alphonsus Liguori
