The 10 pm Rosary: a community keeping Marian devotion alive
In the middle of the digital age, with Mass attendance at historic lows, some communities keep a daily 10 pm appointment to pray the Holy Rosary. The initiative, broadcast from Lourdes, has gathered dozens of faithful who trinc the promises attributed to the Marian apparitions. The prayer, lasting 25 to 30 minutes, has become a ritual of spiritual resistance.
The Marian promises that sustain the practice
According to the Marian apparitions, those who pray the Rosary with great faith will receive special graces. Protection and the greatest graces are promised, as well as the destruction of vices and a reduction in sin. These promises, recorded at the source, are the driving force behind a practice renewed every night.
An anniversary in Covadonga and the day's homily
This 7 September marks the 125th anniversary of the Basilica of Covadonga, dedicated to the Virgin Mary. In addition, Father Santiago Martín, a Franciscan, offers a homily accompanying the Gospel of the day. The day also includes the Chaplet of Divine Mercy, ideally prayed at 3 pm.
Can this traditional practice connect with new generations, or will it be relegated to an ever smaller niche? The answer, perhaps, lies in the persistence of those who keep the nightly appointment.
