33 Day Prayer of Consecration to Our Lady of the Rosary - Day 3
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit!
Receive our Consecration Prayer, O dearest Mother Mary!
"Dear children! Today I call you to begin to pray the Rosary with a living faith. That way I will be able to help you. You, dear children, wish to obtain graces, but you are not praying. I am not able to help you because you do not want to get started. Dear children, I am calling you to pray the Rosary and that your Rosary be an obligation which you shall fulfill with joy. That way you shall understand the reason I am with you this long. I desire to teach you to pray. Thank you for having responded to my call." (June 12, 1986)
Learning Christ from Mary
14. Christ is the supreme Teacher, the
revealer and the one revealed. It is not just a question of learning
what he taught but of "learning him". In this regard could we have any
better teacher than Mary? From the divine standpoint, the Spirit is the
interior teacher who leads us to the full truth of Christ (cf. Jn 14:26;
15:26; 16:13). But among creatures no one knows Christ better than
Mary; no one can introduce us to a profound knowledge of his mystery
better than his Mother.
The first of the "signs" worked by Jesus -
the changing of water into wine at the marriage in Cana - clearly
presents Mary in the guise of a teacher, as she urges the servants to do
what Jesus commands (cf. Jn 2:5). We can imagine that she would have
done likewise for the disciples after Jesus' Ascension, when she joined
them in awaiting the Holy Spirit and supported them in their first
mission. Contemplating the scenes of the Rosary in union with Mary is a
means of learning from her to "read" Christ, to discover his secrets and
to understand his message.
This school of Mary is all the more effective if we consider that
she teaches by obtaining for us in abundance the gifts of the Holy
Spirit, even as she offers us the incomparable example of her own
"pilgrimage of faith". As we contemplate each mystery of her Son's
life, she invites us to do as she did at the Annunciation: to ask humbly
the questions which open us to the light, in order to end with the
obedience of faith: "Behold I am the handmaid of the Lord; be it done to
me according to your word" (Lk 1:38).

VIRGINIS MARIAE OF THE SUPREME PONTIFF JOHN PAUL II TO THE BISHOPS,
CLERGY AND FAITHFUL ON THE MOST HOLY ROSARY - N. 14)
Dearest Mother, teach us to pray!
Supplication to the Queen of the Holy Rosary:
"O Blessed Rosary of Mary, sweet chain which unites us to God, bond of love which unites us to the angels, tower of salvation against the assaults of Hell, safe port in our universal shipwreck, we will never abandon you. You will be our comfort in the hour of death: yours our final kiss as life ebbs away. And the last word from our lips will be your sweet name, O Queen of the Rosary of Pompei, O dearest Mother, O Refuge of Sinners, O Sovereign Consoler of the Afflicted. May you be everywhere blessed, today and always, on earth and in heaven". (Blessed Bartolo Longo)
We commit ourselves to praying the Rosary for your intentions, dearest Mary, our Mother, as You enter this final battle with Satan, for the sake of souls. We will take up the Rosary as an obligation that we will fulfill with great joy! Together we will pray for Your Triumph over Satan, and for the coming of a New Time of Peace which has been given to us through You, Oh Clement, O Loving, O Sweet Virgin Mary!! Amen
Glory be to the Father, to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit! As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen
Now we pray our Rosary for today! The Sorrowful Mysteries!!
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
