August 5, 2026, Memorial of Our Lady of Snows, Holy Rosary (Glorious Mysteries) | From Las Vegas
2d ago00:32:32Tap to summarizeFriends of the Rosary,We celebrate today, August 5, the Memorial of the Dedication of the Basilica of St. Mary Major, one of the four most illustrious churches of Rome, along with St. John Lateran, St. Peter, St. Paul Outside the Walls, and St. Mary Major.The Basilica of St. Mary Major was built at the indication of the Blessed Mother after the miracle of the snowfall that took place on the night of August 4 - 5 in the year 358.The Virgin Mary had announced it in a dream to two faithful Roman Christians, the patrician John and his wife, as well as to Pope Liberius.The basilica was completed a century later, after the Council of Ephesus in 431 declared Mary the Mother of God as dogma.Yesterday, during the pontifical Mass in Rome, a traditional shower of flower petals descended from the basilica's ceiling to commemorate the August snowfall of 358.The memorial of the Dedication of the Basilica of Saint Mary Major is also known as Our Lady of the Snows.Our Lady of the Snows teaches that grace can appear where it seems impossible, even “snow” in the heat of summer. God can mark out a place of mercy where human expectation says nothing should happen.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Transcribe →August 4, 2026, Memorial of St. John Vianney, Holy Rosary (Sorrowful Mysteries)
3d ago00:30:10Tap to summarizeFriends of the Rosary,In today’s Gospel (Matthew 15:1-2, 10-14), Jesus warns that religious habits are not enough if the heart is far from God. The Pharisees focus on external tradition, but Jesus points deeper: what comes out of a person reveals what is inside.Also, today, August 4, we honor Saint John Vianney (1786-1859), also known as the Curé of Ars. Born in France in 1786, during the French Revolution, he was sent as a parish priest to Ars, a small village that was spiritually lukewarm. Here he spent forty-two years of his life, devoting himself to prayer, mortification, and pastoral works.His success in directing souls made him known throughout the Christian world. Men of all ranks and conditions of life sought his guidance and advice.He would spend many hours each day in the confessional, sometimes 12 to 16 hours, helping people return to God.His holiness was pastoral and merciful. His message was simple: go to confession, pray seriously, love the Eucharist, and do not be afraid to let God heal what is broken.St. John Baptist Mary Vianney was beatified by Pope St. Pius X, himself once a parish priest, and canonized by Pope Pius XI.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

4d ago00:28:11Tap to summarizeFriends of the Rosary,The main reading of the Gospel today (Matthew 14:22-36) shows the disciples in a storm — a metaphor for the storm of life. Jesus comes to them walking on the sea, but they were terrified.“It is a ghost,” they said, and they cried out in fear.At once Jesus spoke to them, “Take courage, it is I; do not be afraid.”Peter said to him in reply,“Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water.”He said, “Come.”Peter got out of the boat and began to walk on the water toward Jesus.But when he saw how strong the wind was, he became frightened;and, beginning to sink, he cried out, “Lord, save me!”Immediately Jesus stretched out his hand and caught him,and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?”In this passage, we see that Peter begins well because his eyes are on Jesus, but when he focuses on the wind, he starts to sink. His prayer is short and perfect: “Lord, save me.” Jesus immediately reaches out to him.Let's all keep our eyes on Jesus. When we feel ourselves sinking, pray simply and honestly: “Lord, save me.”Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

5d ago00:31:00Tap to summarizeFriends of the Rosary,Today's Sunday readings speak about God feeding His people. In the first reading (Isaiah 55:1-3), God invites everyone who is thirsty and hungry to come to Him. He offers what truly satisfies, not just food for the body, but for the soul. Many things promise to fill us, but only God can give peace that lasts.Saint Paul also gives a beautiful reminder (Romans 8:35, 37-39): nothing can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus. Not suffering, weakness, fear, or hardship. God’s love is stronger than all of it.The Gospel (Matthew 14:13-21) shows Jesus feeding the five thousand. The disciples see the crowd and think only of the problem: too many people, too little food. Five loaves and two fish look small, but in the hands of the Lord they become enough.Our faith may feel small. Our patience may feel small. Our strength may feel small. But when we place it in Jesus’ hands, He can multiply it.We bring Jesus what we have, even if it is small. He asks us to offer what we can, and let Him provide what is missing.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

6d ago00:31:17Tap to summarizeFriends of the Rosary,Today, August 1st, is the Memorial of Saint Alphonsus Liguori, Bishop and Doctor of the Church, founder of the Redemptorists, and a great teacher of moral theology.He is especially known for preaching God’s mercy. He dedicated his life calling people back to God’s mercy.Born near Naples, Italy, in 1696, he became a lawyer while still young, but later he gave his life to God as a priest.He preached in a way ordinary people could understand. He cared especially for the poor, the abandoned, and people who felt far from God. In 1732, he founded the Redemptorists, a religious congregation dedicated to preaching the Gospel, especially to the poor and neglected.Saint Alphonsus Liguori had a deep love for Mary and wrote The Glories of Mary. He promoted prayer, confession, devotion to the Eucharist, and trust in Jesus. He suffered many illnesses and difficulties later in life, but stayed faithful.He died on August 1, 1787. He was canonized in 1839 and declared a Doctor of the Church in 1871.Saint Alphonsus Liguori, pray for us. Help us trust God’s mercy, avoid sin, love Mary, and follow Jesus with a sincere heart!Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Transcribe →July 31, 2026, Memorial of St. Ignatius of Loyola, Holy Rosary (Sorrowful Mysteries)
1w ago00:30:02Tap to summarizeFriends of the Rosary,Today, July 31st, we honor Ignatius of Loyola (1491–1556) as the saint of the day, a Spanish Basque soldier, mystic, and priest who founded the Society of Jesus (the Jesuits) and wrote The Spiritual Exercises.In the year 1521, at the siege of Pampeluna, a cannonball fractured the left leg of Captain Ignatius Loyola, the future founder of the Jesuits. While he was convalescing, Ignatius read about Christ and His saints and thus turned wholly to God. He went to Montserrat, and hung up his arms before the altar of the Blessed Virgin, entering upon his knighthood in the army of Christ. He then equipped himself for Christ's service by acquiring a good classical and theological education.God favored and refreshed him with such wonderful spiritual lights. He patiently endured sufferings and insults in every place, undergoing the hardest trials, even imprisonment and beatings almost to death. But he ever desired to suffer far more for the glory of his Lord.At Paris he was joined by nine companions from that University, men of different nations, who had taken their degrees in Arts and Theology; and there at Montmartre he laid the first foundations of the order. Among them, St. Francis Xavier was sent to preach the Gospel in the Indies. He dispersed others of his children to spread the Christian faith in other parts of the world, thus declaring war against paganism, superstition, and heresy.God raised up Ignatius and the Society of Jesus to oppose Luther and the heretics of his time, as formerly he had raised up other holy men to oppose other heretics.The members of the Society of Jesus became the shock troops of the Church in the battle against the spread of Protestantism in Europe, as well as one of the greatest foreign mission organizations that the world has known.Ignatius everywhere opened schools for the education of youth in piety and letters. St. Philip Neri and others saw his countenance shining with heavenly light. And his power over the demons was wonderful.Ignatius died on July 31, 1556, at the age of sixty-five.Since then, St. Ignatius is celebrated for miracles and for his great services to the Church.In today's Gospel (Matthew 13:54-58), Jesus returns to His native place, and the people are astonished by His wisdom. But instead of receiving Him, they reduce Him to what they already know: “Is he not the carpenter’s son?” Familiarity closes their hearts. They cannot accept that God is working through someone so close, so ordinary, so known to them.That is a warning for us. God may speak through ordinary people, ordinary duties, ordinary prayers, and ordinary moments. If we only expect God in dramatic signs, we may miss Him when He comes quietly.Saint Ignatius of Loyola fits beautifully with today’s message. His life was reshaped by God after injury, ambition, and conversion. He learned to discern God’s voice, to seek God’s will, and to find God in all things.Let's listen when God corrects us. Do not reject truth because it is uncomfortable or because it comes through someone familiar. Ask for a humble heart that can recognize God’s voice and follow His will.Like Saint Ignatius, help us seek Divine Will in all things and follow the Lord with courage.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Transcribe →July 30, 2026, Holy Rosary (Luminous Mysteries)
1w ago00:32:29Tap to summarizeFriends of the Rosary,In today’s Gospel (Matthew 13:47-53), Jesus speaks of the Kingdom like a net gathering all kinds of fish. At the end, there is a separation between what is good and what is bad.Jesus said to the disciples:“The Kingdom of heaven is like a net thrown into the sea,which collects fish of every kind.When it is full they haul it ashoreand sit down to put what is good into buckets.What is bad they throw away.Thus it will be at the end of the age.The angels will go out and separate the wicked from the righteousand throw them into the fiery furnace,where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth.”This parable is not meant only to frighten us, but to wake us up. Our choices matter, as the way we live today is preparing us for eternity.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Transcribe →July 29, 2026, Memorial of Martha, Mary, and Lazarus, Holy Rosary (Glorious Mysteries)
1w ago00:29:54Tap to summarizeFriends of the Rosary,Today, in the Memorial of Saints Martha, Mary, and Lazarus, the Church remembers three siblings who were close friends of Jesus. Their home in Bethany was a place where Jesus was welcomed, listened to, questioned, and loved.That is a beautiful image of Christian life: not only praying in church, but letting Jesus enter the real home — with its work, worries, grief, conversations, and meals.Martha shows faith in action. She serves, she speaks honestly, and in John’s Gospel she makes one of the strongest confessions of faith: “Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God.” She is not only the busy sister; she is a woman of courage and belief. Even while grieving Lazarus, she still comes to Jesus.Jesus told her,“I am the resurrection and the life;whoever believes in me, even if he dies, will live,and anyone who lives and believes in me will never die."Mary shows love that listens. She sits at the Lord’s feet in Luke’s Gospel, receiving His word. In John’s Gospel, she brings her sorrow directly to Jesus.Lazarus shows the power of Christ over death. He does not speak much in the Gospel, but his life becomes a sign.We want to welcome Jesus into the whole house of your life. Serve like Martha, listen like Mary, and trust like Lazarus!Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

1w ago00:32:06Tap to summarizeFriends of the Rosary,Today, Christ the Lord (Matthew 13:36-43) explains the parable of the weeds in the field."He who sows good seed is the Son of Man,the field is the world, the good seed the children of the Kingdom.The weeds are the children of the Evil One,and the enemy who sows them is the Devil.The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels.Just as weeds are collected and burned up with fire,so will it be at the end of the age.The Son of Man will send his angels,and they will collect out of his Kingdomall who cause others to sin and all evildoers.They will throw them into the fiery furnace,where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth.Then the righteous will shine like the sunin the Kingdom of their Father.Whoever has ears ought to hear."As we learn from the Lord, good and evil grow together for a time, but not forever.The Lord is patient. He will separate what is true from what is false, what belongs to the Kingdom from what destroys it.Let’s not be discouraged by the weeds — in the world, in the Church, or in your own heart!Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

2w ago00:27:46Tap to summarizeFriends of the RosaryJesus describes today to the crowds, with two parables, the transforming power of the Kingdom of God by comparing it to a mustard seed and yeast. (Matthew 13:31–35).“The Kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that a person took and sowed in a field. It is the smallest of all the seeds, yet when full-grown it is the largest of plants. It becomes a large bush,and the ‘birds of the sky come and dwell in its branches.’”He spoke to them another parable.“The Kingdom of heaven is like yeastthat a woman took and mixed with three measures of wheat flouruntil the whole batch was leavened.”The Church, the body of Jesus, the living organism that makes present Christ’s mind and will in the world, is here to transform the world — rather than to make itself accessible to the world, as Bishop Barron explains.“It is the mustard seed, the leaven. In Augustine’s terms, it is the city of God making its way within the city of man.”“It is his love made flesh throughout the ages, his hands and feet and eyes and heart.”—Yesterday, in Matthew 13:44-52, Jesus said to his disciples: “The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure buried in a field, which a person finds and hides again, and out of joy goes and sells all that he has and buys that field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant searching for fine pearls. When he finds a pearl of great price, he goes and sells all that he has and buys it.”Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!
