NEWSLETTEROCTOBER 2013

The Rosary embodies the important events in the lives of Jesus and Mary. The Legion of Mary inNew York, an association or Catholic laity who volunteers to serve the Church, explains why theRosary is prayed.

We pray to Mary because she is the Mother of God and her prayers are very powerful (Jn.2: 1 -11). When we pray the Hail Mary we combine worship of God and honor of Mary. We combineboth our prayers to God and her prayers to God. We do not worship Mary; we only worship God.When we pray to Mary we honor her as the Mother of God, and as our Spiritual Mother (Rev.12:17, Jn.19: 26,27). When we need help the most, we not only go directly to God by ourselves, weask others to pray for us and with us. When we pray the Rosary, we have Mary, the Holy Motherof God, pray to God for us and with us. God wishes us to honor Mary because of her special rolein God's plan of salvation. He wished her to contribute to the redemption of man, just as muchas Eve contributed to the fall of man. As a father is filled with joy at the love and respect othersgive to his children, so too is God the Father overjoyed and seeks for us to honor His daughterMary, the mother of His Son Jesus . http://legion-of-mary-ny.org

DECEMBER 4, 2013 Proceeds are in aid of the computer department.

Let us work together to make these events successful.
