Rosary Redux: Pope Blessed Mom’s
Stickman:
My grandmother and mother always had a rosary handy and used them daily. I am
also not a Catholic anymore, though I remember those days vividly. I once went to St. Peter’s in Rome and bought a beautiful rosary for my mother and also went to the special service they had for rosaries, on a Wednesday as I recall when literally thousands of people would wait in the square for the Pope to appear at a window and bless all of the rosaries. Quite a thing to be involved in. I gave it to my mother and told her the story and it became her most valued possession.
Question: Are you of the same faith persuasion now as you were as a child?
