A Spiritual Companion to the Rosary—Newly Updated to Include the Luminous Mysteries

Entering the Mysteries of the Rosary

In Spiritual Riches of the Rosary, Fr. Charles J. Callan, O.P., and Fr. John F. McConnell, M.M., unveil the depth, power, and beauty of the Church’s most beloved prayer. Far more than a repetition of formulas, the Rosary emerges here as a school of contemplation, a pathway into the mysteries of Christ, and a sure guide to growth in holiness. Drawing from Scripture, tradition, and pastoral wisdom, the authors illuminate how this simple devotion becomes a source of grace for souls seeking deeper union with God.

Inside this classic work, you will discover:

• Rich meditations on each of the Mysteries
• Insight into the Rosary as a method of mental prayer
• Historical and spiritual background for every mystery
• Practical guidance for praying with greater attention and devotion
• Encouragement for beginners and seasoned devotees alike

“In order to understand and appreciate the practical spiritual riches of the mysteries of the Rosary we need to be familiar with the time, place and circumstances of each one, so that we can see and picture just what took place each time, and thence draw out the spiritual lessons which each mystery teaches us and all Christians.

Now this is what the pages that follow here are intended to help us to do. They give us the background of each mystery; they explain in what the mystery consists; they teach us how to meditate on the mystery; and finally they show us how rich in spiritual thought and reaching each mystery is.” (From the Preface)
