THE COMPLETE ROSARY
Product Description
Author: William G. Storey. 249 pg. PB
One of Pope John Paul II's most precious legacies to the Church is a modern reform of the rosary. These changes were designed to restore the most popular Catholic devotion to its full splendor as a spiritually rich time of prayerful contemplation. The Complete Rosary presents all the elements of the Pope's reform, including: five new luminous mysteries, "focus" scripture texts for each mystery, "scripture tags" for each Hail Mary, closing prayers, and images for meditation and contemplation of the mysteries. This new material transforms what can be a mechanical recitation of rote prayers into a profound encounter with the sacred mysteries of our faith.
William G. Storey is professor emeritus of Liturgy and Church History at the University of Notre Dame. He has compiled, translated, and edited many books of prayer, including Prayers of Christian Consolation, A Prayer Book of Catholic Devotions, Novenas and A Beginner's Book of Prayer. He currently resides in South Bend, Indiana.
