The Rosary Army

Today I finished making my fourth rosary. I can't begin to tell you the joy I have received from doing this. If you have never done it, you should give it a try. You can find everything you need at the Rosary Army. They have places to purchase materials, directions on how to make them and directions on how to pray them. They also have a wonderful podcast that deals with many issues surrounding their mission and life as a Catholic Family. They will even give you a free rosary for the asking. If you make them, you can even send them back to the Rosary Army and they will give them away for you. I was surprised at the number of people who want rosaries. Once people found out I was making them, the requests came in quickly. Now I am trying to get more people involved in making them. My first one took me more than 2 hours and it was terrible, but it was made with a lot of love. I would recommend watching the video on their site. It helped me get better. Each one I make is better than the last. I am quite pleased with how they turn out now. I have ordered enough material to make 50 more. I am planning on teaching my CCD class how to make them and how to pray them the second half of the year. It would be nice if we could then give them away, but I am guessing the children will want to keep them for themselves.
