5d ago00:30:11Tap to summarizeFriends of the Rosary,Christ the Lord is the union and reconciliation of divinity and humanity, and the promise of eternal life.We are called to follow Jesus. “He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and there shall be no more death or mourning, wailing or pain, for the old order has passed away” (Rev 21:4).Bishop Barron writes, “Think of the oceans of tears that have been shed by suffering humanity up and down the ages. Think of the agony caused by sickness, by psychological torment, and by the death of loved ones. It will all be swallowed up, washed away, taken up into a higher place.”With Jesus, we will be in the New Jerusalem. He is the accomplishment of the covenant.And tomorrow is the Solemnity of Pentecost, the end of the Easter season. Observance of the solemnity begins with First Vespers in the Liturgy of the Hours, and a special Vigil Mass before or after First Vespers.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 →May 22, 2026, Memorial of St. Rita of Cascia, Religious, Holy Rosary (Sorrowful Mysteries)
5d ago00:32:09Tap to summarizeFriends of the Rosary,Today, May 22, is the Memorial of St. Rita of Cascia (1381-1457), patron saint of the impossible, difficult, and hopeless causes.Like St. Jude, many turn to St. Rita for her intercession in times of desperation, heartbreak, and disease.After eighteen years of married life, St. Rita lost, by murder, her husband and her two sons to an old enemy. Called afterward to the religious state, she professed the Rule of St. Augustine at Cascia, her native town, in central Italy.In a life-long and terrible suffering, her patience, cheerfulness, and union by prayer with God never failed her.Jesus imprinted on her brow the mark of a thorn from His crown. She died on May 22, 1456, and, both in life and after death, has worked many miracles.St. Pope John Paul II called us to consider the message of St. Rita of Cascia: to live humbly and conform our lives to Christ.“The message that this saint passes on to us flows from her life: humility and obedience were the path that Rita took to be ever more perfectly conformed to the Crucified One. The mark that shines on her forehead is the verification of her Christian maturity. On the Cross with Jesus, she is crowned in a certain way with the love that she knew and heroically expressed within her home and by her participation in the events of her town.”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 →May 21, 2026, Thursday of the Seventh Week of Easter, Holy Rosary (Luminous Mysteries)
6d ago00:33:54Tap to summarizeFriends of the Rosary,Today, May 21, is the Memorial of St. Christopher (Cristobal) Magallanes (1869-1927) and martyrs — twenty-one diocesan priests and three devout laymen, all members of the Cristeros movement.As they pledged their allegiance to Christ and to the church, the Cristeros rose up in rebellion against the anti-Catholic Mexican government during the 1920s,The anti-Christian government closed churches, schools, and seminaries; foreign clergy were expelled, and declared it a crime to receive baptism or celebrate the Mass.Christopher Magallanes established a seminary in Totatiche, Jalisco, and secretly spread the Gospel and ministered to the people.Captured by government authorities, he was heard to shout from his jail cell: "I am innocent, and I die innocent. I forgive with all my heart those responsible for my death, and I ask God that the shedding of my blood serve the peace of our divided Mexico."Like Blessed Miguel Agustin Pro, S.J. (November 23), Cristobal and his twenty-four companion martyrs lived under a very anti-Catholic government in Mexico, determined to weaken the Catholic faith of its people.These martyrs did not die as a single group but in eight Mexican states, with Jalisco and Zacatecas having the largest number. They were beatified in 1992 and canonized eight years later.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 ago00:30:35Tap to summarizeFriends of the Rosary,"May they be one just as we are one."In the reading from the holy Gospel according to John 17:11b-19, Jesus prayed to the Father:“Holy Father, keep them in your name that you have given me, so that they may be one just as we are one.When I was with them I protected them in your name that you gave me, and I guarded them, and none of them was lost except the son of destruction, in order that the Scripture might be fulfilled.But now I am coming to you. I speak this in the world so that they may share my joy completely. I gave them your word, and the world hated them, because they do not belong to the world any more than I belong to the world.I do not ask that you take them out of the world but that you keep them from the Evil One.They do not belong to the world any more than I belong to the world.Consecrate them in the truth. Your word is truth. As you sent me into the world, so I sent them into the world. And I consecrate myself for them, so that they also may be consecrated in truth."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 →May 19, 2026, Tuesday of the Seventh Week of Easter, Holy Rosary (Sorrowful Mysteries)
1w ago00:28:29Tap to summarizeFriends of the Rosary,In today’s Gospel (John 17:1–11a), Christ the Lord raised his eyes to heaven and said,"Father, the hour has come.Give glory to your son, so that your son may glorify you,just as you gave him authority over all people,so that your son may give eternal life to all you gave him."In this prayer to the Father, the Lord summed up his work as he was about to return to the eternal glory. Jesus is in his very person the meeting of heaven and earth. Divinity and humanity came together in him by carrying God's light into the darkest places of the human condition and transforming it. The proof that heaven is able to transform earth is the resurrection and the ascension."By calling a scattered Israel to unity, inviting the poor to table fellowship, healing the sick in body and heart, and embodying the path of forgiveness and love, Jesus was bringing God’s will and purpose to earth," writes Bishop Barron.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 →May 18, 2026, Monday of the Seventh Week of Easter, Holy Rosary (Joyful Mysteries)
1w ago00:28:53Tap to summarizeFriends of the Rosary,In a passage of the Gospel, John 16:29-33, that we read today, the feast of Pope St. John I, the disciples said to Jesus, “We believe that you came from God.”Christ the Lord answered them,"Do you believe now?Behold, the hour is coming and has arrivedwhen each of you will be scattered to his own homeand you will leave me alone.But I am not alone, because the Father is with me."Sadly, we notice that our faith is weak — and that’s our problem. We leave Jesus alone and mostly seek wordy solutions.The Lord reveals then,“I have told you this so that you might have peace in me.In the world, you will have trouble,but take courage, I have conquered the world.”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 →May 17, 2026, Solemnity of the Ascension of the Lord, Holy Rosary (Glorious Mysteries)
2w ago00:33:39Tap to summarizeFriends of the Rosary,Today, May 17, the Seventh Sunday of Easter, we celebrate the Solemnity of the Ascension, when, at the end of His earthly life, Jesus ascended triumphantly from Mount Olivet into His Father in Heaven, seated at the right hand and sharing in eternal glory.The return of Christ to heaven is the culmination of the accomplishment of His salvific mission on earth.The Son of God, the second divine Person of the Blessed Trinity, became man, lived and died on this earth on the cross, reconciling sinful man with his divine Creator, so we can live with God forever in heaven. His human death earned for us a share in the divine life.The resurrection is the divine guarantee that we, too, shall rise again, and his ascension to the Father is the prelude to our entrance into God's everlasting kingdom.Today's feast is therefore the confirmation of our faith. We shall all rise from the grave with new, glorified bodies and ascend to heaven, as Christ did. There we'll begin our true life of eternal happiness.Human beings want to live on forever with our dear ones. Death breaks that continuity, but only for a little while. That break is necessary for the new life to begin.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 →May 16, 2026, Feast of Mary, Queen of the Apostles, Holy Rosary (Joyful Mysteries)
2w ago00:31:35Tap to summarizeFriends of the Rosary,As we read today (John 16:23b-28), Jesus said to his disciples:“Amen, amen, I say to you,whatever you ask the Father in my name he will give you.Until now you have not asked anything in my name;ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete.”Christ the Lord is giving us assurance about answered prayer. And He is telling us to keep asking.Also, he is revealing that God “knows what you need before you ask him” (Matt 6:8).In other words, God is omniscient and knows everything about everything and therefore is aware of what we need before we ask.So what is the point of asking him for anything?God is Father and still, like a good parent, delights in hearing our requests, some good and some quite bad, and knowing what their child needs long before she asks for it, he does not always respond the way we would like him toToday, the Saturday after Ascension Thursday, is the Feast of Mary, Queen of Apostles.Also, today we celebrate the feast of St. Simon Stock (1165-1265), an English Catholic priest of the 13th century, an early prior of the Carmelite Order. The Blessed Virgin Mary appeared to him and gave him the Brown Scapular, promising salvation to all those who wore the brown scapular. Saint Simon Stock promoted the devotion to Our Lady of Mount Carmel.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 ago00:31:22Tap to summarizeFriends of the Rosary,Today, May 15, is the Feast of St. Isidore the Farmer (1070-1130).Although working many hours a day, St. Isidore never failed to attend daily Mass and spend time praying before the Holy Eucharist. He married a young woman as simple and upright as himself, who also became a saint, Maria de la Cabeza. They had one son, who died as a child. They were always willing to help their neighbors and worked with the poor in the city slums of Madrid, Spain.He died on May 15, 1130, and was declared a saint in 1622, along with Ignatius of Loyola, Francis Xavier, Teresa of Avila, and Philip Neri.

Transcribe →May 14, 2026, Solemnity of the Ascension and Feast St. Matthias, Holy Rosary (Glorious Mysteries)
2w ago00:30:01Tap to summarizeFriends of the Rosary,Today, May 14, is the Feast of St. Matthias, Apostle and Martyr.Also, today, in the United States, the ecclesiastical provinces of New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Hartford, Newark, and Omaha, we celebrate the Solemnity of the Ascension.With the victory Christ the Lord gained by His resurrection from the dead, it is today made perfect. On this day, Christ's triumph is complete.With the Ascension to the Father, the Glorified Christ now shares in the dominion of heaven and earth; He now rules all hearts and all souls.As we read in the Acts of the Apostles (Acts 1:15-17, 20-26), after the Ascension of Jesus, St. Peter proposed to the assembled faithful that they choose a disciple of Christ to fill the place of the traitor Judas.“Then they prayed,“You, Lord, who know the hearts of all,show which one of these two you have chosento take the place in this apostolic ministryfrom which Judas turned away to go to his own place.”Then they gave lots to them, and the lot fell upon Matthias,and he was counted with the Eleven Apostles.”The Church venerates St. Matthias on an equal footing with the other Apostles, who gave testimony to what they saw and heard in their lives with our Lord.St. Matthias would be martyred, receiving "the crown of life which God has promised to those who love him."The name of St. Matthias is mentioned in the Canon of the Mass.Today marks the beginning of the Pentecost Novena (9 days of prayer) to the Holy Spirit,Alleluia! Christ is Risen!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!
