October is the Month of the Rosary

We celebrated the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary on October 7. The history of the Rosary mostly legend and tradition.  There is evidence that beads were used to count Our Fathers and Hail Marys in the Middle Ages. Between the twelfth and fifteenth centuries, the structure of the Rosary became more like the one we pray today. Tradition also has it that Our Lady appeared to St. Dominic and gave him the Rosary.  Many saints recommend praying the Rosary to ask Mary for help for others and ourselves. In REP this month, each class will spend a little time learning about the Rosary and praying part or all of it. – From MyCatholicKids.com, “A Short History of the Rosary”
