    The Rosary

    (From Sister Lucias letters concerning the Rosary and prayer,


    from A Little Treatise on the Nature and Recitation of the
    Rosary.)
    I wish you to ... pray the Rosary every day. (June 13, 1917)
    We should pray the Rosary every day because all of us
    have the necessity and obligation to pray.
    If we do not save ourselves by innocence, we need to save
    ourselves by Penance. Therefore, the little daily sacrifice
    that we offer to God to pray our Rosary is united to this
    prayer in which we implore: Our Father, who art in Heaven
    ... Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who
    trespass against us. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for
    us sinners now and at the hour of our death.
    * * *
    I want you to ... continue praying the Rosary every day. (July
    13, 1917)
    Our Lady insisted, begging us to have perseverance in
    prayer.
    It is not sufficient to pray one day; it is necessary to pray
    always, every day, with faith, with confidence, because every
    day we fail and every day we need to have recourse to God,
    begging His pardon and His help.

    I want you to continue praying the Rosary every day. (August
    19, 1917)
    Our Lady insists, because She knows our lack of
    scrupulousness in doing good, our frailty and our necessity,
    and as a Mother, She comes to meet us to give us a hand and
    sustain our weakness on the path that we must follow to save
    ourselves: the path of prayer which is the path of our meeting
    with God. So She was sent to ask us to pray at the end of each
    decade: O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of
    hell. Lead all souls to Heaven, especially those most in need.
    (This is understood: those who find themselves in danger of
    damnation).

    Continue to say the Rosary to obtain the end of the war.
    (September 13, 1917)
    In this insistence, Our Lady indicates to us the great
    necessity that we have to pray to obtain the grace of peace
    between nations, among peoples, among families, in the homes,
    in consciences, between God and souls.
    Only the light, strength and grace of God penetrating into
    souls and into hearts can bring us to a true and mutual
    comprehension, pardon and succor, the one means whereby a
    true and just peace can be attained. But to obtain it, it is
    necessary to pray!
