O purest Mary, O sweetest Mary, let thy name henceforth be ever on my lips. Delay not, O Blessed Lady, to help me, whenever I call on thee; for, in all my temptations and my needs, I shall never cease to call on thee, ever repeating thy sacred name, Mary, Mary🙏

Remember O most gracious Virgin Mary that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help or sought thy intercession was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee O virgin of Virgins. My mother to you I come before you I stand sinful
The 15 promises of the Rosary.
1. Those who faithfully serve me by the recitation of the Rosary shall receive signal graces.
2. I promise my special protection and the greatest graces to all those who shall recite the Rosary.
3. The Rosary shall be a powerful armor against hell. It will destroy vice, decrease sin, and defeat heresies.
4. The recitation of the Rosary will cause virtue and good works to flourish. It will obtain for souls the abundant mercy of God. It will withdraw the hearts of men from the love of the world and its vanities, and will lift them to the desire of eternal things. Oh, that souls would sanctify themselves by this means.
5. The soul which recommends itself to me by the recitation of the Rosary shall not perish.
6. Those who recite my Rosary devoutly, applying themselves to the consideration of its sacred mysteries, shall never be conquered by misfortune. In His justice, God will not chastise them; nor shall they perish by an unprovided death, i.e., be unprepared for heaven. Sinners shall convert. The just shall persevere in grace and become worthy of eternal life.
7. Those who have a true devotion to the Rosary shall not die without the sacraments of the Church.
8. Those who faithfully recite the Rosary shall have, during their life and at their death, the light of God and the plenitude of His graces. At the moment of death, they shall participate in the merits of the saints in paradise.
9. I shall deliver from purgatory those who have been devoted to the Rosary.
10. The faithful children of the Rosary shall merit a high degree of glory in heaven.
11. By the recitation of the Rosary, you shall obtain all that you ask of me.
12. Those who propagate the holy Rosary shall be aided by me in their necessities.
13. I have obtained from my Divine Son that all the advocates of the Rosary shall have for intercessors the entire celestial court during their life and at the hour of their death.
14. All who recite the Rosary are my beloved children and the brothers and sisters of my only Son, Jesus Christ.
15. Devotion for my Rosary is a great sign of predestination.
Today, the Church bids farewell to a man of deep honour and strong faith. Pope Francis longed for all people to be made holy and united through Christ and His Holy Church. His life was a testimony of love, humility and compassion.
Personally, I was deeply moved by the teachings of Pope Francis, especially through his inspiring encyclicals “God’s Name is Mercy” with emphasis on the heart of the Gospel, the endless mercy of God. It reminds us that the Church must be a place of healing, welcome, and forgiveness. Mercy is not an abstract idea but a living reality, and all Christians are called to embody and extend this mercy to others. And “Gaudete et Exsultate” (“Rejoice and Be Glad”) - a call to holiness in the modern world. It teaches that sainthood is not reserved for a select few but is the destiny to which every Christian is called. Holiness is found not only in grand gestures but in small, everyday acts of love, patience and sacrifice. It challenges all believers to live the Beatitudes with joy, perseverance and authenticity.
I pray that God, in His infinite mercy, will welcome his soul into the glory of His Kingdom.
May He console the Church in this time of mourning.
And may He grant us a new shepherd, one who will lead with wisdom, courage and a heart open to the promptings of the Holy Spirit - a Pope for our time. Amen.
O Mary, Mother of God and our mother, we offer ourselves to your loving care. Today we choose you as our mother, guide and friend. May we always be faithful to you and your son, we pray through the goodness of our Lord Jesus Christ, your Divine Son🙏
