SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
On Friday, October 7, the Catholic Church celebrated the Feast of our Lady of the Rosary.
This history of the Rosary is taken from
wikipedia.com.
There are differing views on the history of the Rosary. The exact origin of the Rosary as a prayer is less than
clear and subject to debate among scholars. Prayer beads may have their origins in the Eastern religions in India in the 3rd century BC. The use of knotted prayer ropes in Christianity goes back to the Desert Fathers in
the 3rd and early 4th centuries. These counting devices were used for prayers such as the Jesus prayer in Christian monasticism. The period after the First Council of Ephesus in 431 witnessed a gradual growth in the use
of Marian prayers during the Middle Ages.
According to some Catholic traditions, the Rosary was given to Saint Dominic in a vision of the Blessed Virgin Mary and it was then promoted by Alanus de Rupe. However, not all Catholics agree with that tradition.
Some historians see a more gradual development for the Rosary, in that the repetition of Marian prayers which
form the basis of the Rosary needed counting devices, which resulted in the modern form of the Rosary prayed
on beads.
The practice of meditation during the praying of the Hail Marys is attributed to Dominic of Prussia, a
15th Carthusian monk, who called it "Life of Jesus Rosary". The Christian victory at the Battle of Lepanto in
1571 was attributed to the praying of the Rosary by masses of Europeans based on the request of Pope Pius
V and eventually resulted in the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary. In 1569, the papal bull Consueverunt Romani Pontifices established the devotion to the rosary in the Catholic Church. In 2002 Pope John Paul
II introduced the Luminous Mysteries as an option in an Apostolic Letter on the Rosary, Rosarium Virginis
Mariae.
