[Our Lady of Grace – San Giovanni Rotondo]
Padre Pio had a great devotion to the Blessed Mother, particularly though the Holy Rosary.
Padre Pio knew the importance Our Lady plays in the life of every Christian and knew the importance the Rosary plays in the hands of us Christians.
For him,
the Rosary is the weapon against Satan.
For us who face many trials these days in our world,
St. Pio of Pietrelcina is one of the Saints we must turn to for prayers and guidance.
He faced his trials and sufferings head on through prayer,
the Holy Eucharist,
and the devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary.
[10 Quotes from Padre Pio on the Blessed Virgin Mary]
1. “Let us bind ourselves tightly to the Sorrowful Heart of our Heavenly Mother and reflect on its boundless grief and how precious is our soul.”
2. “May the Mother of Jesus and our Mother, always smile on your spirit, obtaining for it,
from her Most Holy Son, every heavenly blessing.”
3. “Go and keep company with Jesus in His Passion,
and with His Sorrowful Mother.”
4. “…It is enough for you to know that Mary is the Mother of Jesus…
She loves us so much that she offered to God the Father His only natural Son to save His adopted sons…
She is a great and inestimable treasure who encloses in herself an infinite treasure,
the Son of God.”
5. “…If we do what we have always done, what our fathers did before us,
we cannot go wrong.
Satan wants to destroy this prayer,
but in this he will never succeed.
The Rosary is the prayer of those who triumph over everything and everyone. It was Our Lady who taught us this prayer,
just as it was Jesus who taught us the Our Father.”
6. “Some people are so foolish that they think they can go through life� without the help of the Blessed Mother.”
7. [When asked if the Blessed Virgin is present during the Holy Mass],
“Yes,
she places herself at a side,
but I can see her,
what a joy. She is always present.
How can it be that the Mother of Jesus, present in Calvary at the foot of the Cross,
who offered her Son as a victim for the salvation of our souls,
not be present in the mystical Calvary of the altar?”
8. “Let us endeavor,
like so many elect souls,
to follow this blessed Mother,
to walk always close to Her,
not following any other path that leads to life,
except the one trod by our Mother.”
9. “Always stay close to this Heavenly Mother, because she is the sea to be crossed to reach the shores of Eternal Splendor.”
10. “Love the Madonna and pray the Rosary,
for her Rosary is the weapon against the evils of the world today. All graces given by God pass through the Blessed Mother.”
Always remember these words from him –
“Pray, Hope, and Don’t Worry.”
<St. Pio of Pietrelcina>

HOW TO PRAY
THE ROSARY OF THE UNBORN
OUR LADY GIVES THE WORLD THE ROSARY OF THE UNBORN
On October 7, 1997– the Feast of the Holy Rosary – Our Lady appeared to the American visionary, Maureen Sweeney-Kyle, with this rosary and stated: “Propagate the image I have shown you today.”
October 7, 1997 – Feast of the Holy Rosary
Our Lady comes in white. In front of Her and suspended in the air is an unusual rosary. The Our Father beads are droplets of blood in the shape of a cross. The Hail Mary beads are light blue teardrops with unborn babies inside of them. The cross is gleaming gold. Our Lady says: “I come in praise of Jesus, My Son. I come as Prophetess of these times.”
“The rosary you see is Heaven’s way of describing to you the weapon that will overcome this evil of abortion. Heaven weeps for the cost of this great sin. The history and the future of all nations has been changed because of this atrocity against God’s gift of life.”
“Today, sadly, much responsibility must be placed on the laity who are consecrated to Me. I cannot depend on Church leadership to unite in an effort to vanquish the enemy through the rosary. Even My apparitions have caused division by Satan’s efforts to thwart My plans.”
“So today, on My feast day, I am calling all My children to unite in My Heart. Do not allow pride to divide you according to which apparition you will follow. Become part of the Flame of My Heart. Be united in love and in the prayer weapon of My Rosary. The evil of abortion can be conquered by your efforts and through My Grace.”
“Propagate the image I have shown you today.”
1. Each Hail Mary
Heaven’s Promises
“I affirm to you, My daughter, that each ‘Hail Mary’ prayed from a loving heart will rescue one of these innocent lives from death by abortion. When you use this rosary, call to mind My Sorrowful Immaculate Heart which continually sees the sin of abortion played out in every present moment. I give to you this special sacramental* with which to heal My Motherly Heart.”
Maureen asks: “Blessed Mother, do you mean any ‘Hail Mary’ or just one prayed on the Rosary of the Unborn?”
Blessed Mother: “This is a special grace attached to this particular rosary. It should always be used to pray against abortion.
You will please make this known.” (Our Lady as the Sorrowful Mother – July 2, 2001 Afternoon)
*Note: Catholics believe that, in order to be a sacramental, the rosary must be blessed by a Catholic Priest.
2. Each Our Father
“Please tell the world that each ‘Our Father’ (beads shown to Maureen by Jesus were droplets of blood in the form of a cross) recited on the Rosary of the Unborn assuages My grieving Heart. Further, it withholds the Arm of Justice.” (Jesus – August 3, 2001)
3. A Complete Rosary (A 5-decade Rosary)
“The greatest promise I give you in regards to this rosary is this: Every rosary prayed from the heart to its completion on these
beads mitigates the punishment as yet withstanding for the sin of abortion.”
Later that day:
“When I say the punishment as yet withstanding for the sin of abortion, I mean the punishment each soul deserves for taking part in this sin. Then too, I also refer to the greater punishment that awaits the world for embracing this sin. Pray from your heart knowing that your rosary appeases Me.” (Jesus – August 3, 2001)
4. Group Prayer
“What My Mother told you last night concerning the Rosary of the Unborn is this. If a group is gathered who are praying for the unborn from the heart and only one person has in their possession the Rosary of the Unborn, I will honor each ‘Hail Mary’ from each person in the group as if they were holding the Rosary of the Unborn themselves. In this way I lift the constraint of time which it takes to produce enough rosaries.” (Jesus – February 28, 2005)

PRAYING THE ROSARY OF THE UNBORN
When we pray the Rosary of the Unborn, we are asked by Heaven to:
1. Pray from the heart.
‘When you are asked to pray from the heart, you must pray with Holy Love in your heart." (St. Thomas Aquinas – November 2, 2002)
“You are in My Heart when you pray from the heart.” (Our Lady – June 14, 1994)
“When you pray from the heart, your prayers rise as Veronica's veil to wipe the tears from My Face as I cast My gaze upon
this generation.” (Jesus – February 7, 2002)
“Satan does not want you to realize the power of this rosary when you pray from the heart. I am telling you, that the Rosary
of the Unborn saves lives!" (Jesus – October 8, 2007)
"My Motherly Heart is intercessor for these needs [Our Lady's Pro-Life Rosary Intentions], My children, when you pray from
the heart. I am ever ready to assist you. Pray this way often." (Our Lady – June 4, 2011)
2. Call to mind Our Lady’s Sorrowful Immaculate Heart.
“When you use this rosary, call to mind My Sorrowful Immaculate Heart which continually sees the sin of abortion played out in every present moment.” (The Sorrowful Mother – July 2, 2001)
3. Pray that hearts are convicted in the Truth about abortion.
"When you pray the Rosary of the Unborn, pray that hearts are convicted in the Truth. It is only when the spirit of the world reflects the light of Truth that victory will come." (St. Thomas Aquinas – October 7, 2007)
PRAYERS OF THE ROSARY OF THE UNBORN
Note: During the Rosary of the Unborn, we say the Glory Be as 'All Glory Be...'
and also pray 'Jesus, protect and save the unborn' after each Mystery, at Our Lady’s request.
1. OPENING PRAYERS (Optional prayers may be added.)
(Begin by stating the intention)
I / we offer this Rosary for the end to abortion and that hearts are convicted in the Truth about abortion.
(Then raise your rosary to Heaven and say:)
Celestial Queen, with this Rosary, I / we bind all sinners and all nations to Your Immaculate Heart.
The Sign of the Cross
In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Prayer for the Conversion of Hearts
Heavenly Father, during this time of world crisis, let all souls find their peace and security in Your Divine Will. Give each soul the grace to understand that Your Will is Holy Love in the present moment.
Benevolent Father, illuminate each conscience to see the ways that he is not living in Your Will. Grant the world the grace to change and the time in which to do it. Amen.
(Dictated by Mary, the Mother of God, on September 28, 2001, after the 9/11 terrorist attack on the United States)
Prayer to Recite with the Rosary of the Unborn
Divine Infant Jesus, as we pray this rosary, we ask you to remove from the heart of the world the desire to commit the sin of abortion. Remove the veil of deceit Satan has placed over hearts which portrays promiscuity as a freedom, and reveal it for what it is – slavery to sin.
Place over the heart of the world a renewed respect for life at the moment of conception. Amen. (Our Lady – August 27, 2005)
Holy Love Ministries 37137 Butternut Ridge Road North Ridgeville, OH 44039 440-327-8006 Website: www.holylove.org p. 2
The Apostles’ Creed
I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of Heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son Our Lord, Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into Hell; the third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into Heaven, and sits at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body and life everlasting. Amen.
Our Father
(For the intentions of the Holy Father)
Our Father, Who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.
Hail Mary
(Pray three Hail Mary’s for an increase of the virtues of Faith, Hope and Charity)
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of death. Amen.
All Glory Be
All Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
2. THE MYSTERIES OF THE ROSARY
The rosary consists of twenty (20) decades divided into four (4) sets of Mysteries (Joyful, Luminous, Sorrowful, and Glorious) depicting events in the lives of Jesus and Mary. Each set of Mysteries consists of five (5) decades, with each decade recalling a particular Mystery or event. Praying a 5-decade rosary (one set of Mysteries) is usually considered to be a complete rosary.
When praying the Rosary of the Unborn, we use the Pro-Life Rosary Intentions dictated by Our Lady on June 4, 2011. We also use the Pro-Life Meditations on the Mysteries of the Rosary by Fr. Frank Pavone of Priests for Life. (Note: Permission has been granted by Priests for Life for the duplication and distribution of these Meditations.)

SECOND JOYFUL MYSTERY
“We pray for guidance for all involved in the abortion industry and mothers considering abortion."
The Visitation
John the Baptist leapt for joy in his mother’s womb. We pray that people may realize that abortion is not about children who “might” come into the world, but is about children who are already in the world, living and growing in the womb, and are scheduled to be killed.
Our Father... (10) Hail Mary’s... All Glory Be... O my Jesus ... Jesus, protect and save the unborn.
THIRD JOYFUL MYSTERY
“We pray for the conversion of anyone who supports abortion.”
The Nativity
God himself was born as a child. The greatness of a person does not depend on size, for the newborn King is very small. Let us pray for an end to prejudice against the tiny babies threatened by abortion.
Our Father... (10) Hail Mary’s... All Glory Be... O my Jesus ... Jesus, protect and save the unborn.
FOURTH JOYFUL MYSTERY
“We pray for government leaders who support abortion."
The Presentation
The Child is presented in the Temple because the Child belongs to God. Children are not the property of their parents, nor of the government. They – and we – belong to God Himself.
Our Father... (10) Hail Mary’s... All Glory Be... O my Jesus ... Jesus, protect and save the unborn.
FIFTH JOYFUL MYSTERY
“We pray for any religious leader who does not speak out against abortion."
The Finding of the Child Jesus in the Temple
The boy Jesus was filled with wisdom, because He is God. Let us pray that all people may see the wisdom of His teachings about the dignity of life, and may understand that this teaching is not an opinion, but the Truth. Our Father... (10) Hail Mary’s... All Glory Be... O my Jesus ... Jesus, protect and save the unborn.
FIRST LUMINOUS MYSTERY
“We seek Blessed Mother’s protection over the unborn."
Christ is Baptized in the Jordan
When Jesus is baptized, the Father's voice is heard: "This is my beloved Son." All are called to become adopted sons and daughters of God through baptism. We pray that children in the womb may be protected, so that they may be born and welcomed into the Christian community by baptism.
Our Father... (10) Hail Mary’s... All Glory Be... O my Jesus ... Jesus, protect and save the unborn.
SECOND LUMINOUS MYSTERY
“We pray for guidance for all involved in the abortion industry and mothers considering abortion."
The Wedding at Cana
Jesus revealed His glory by the miracle at Cana. The new couple was blessed not only with wine, but with faith in Christ. Let us pray for strong marriages, rooted in the Lord, and open to the gift of new life.
Our Father... (10) Hail Mary’s... All Glory Be... O my Jesus ... Jesus, protect and save the unborn.
THIRD LUMINOUS MYSTERY
“We pray for the conversion of anyone who supports abortion.”
Christ proclaims the Kingdom and Calls All to Conversion
“Repent and believe the Good News." Let us pray that these first words of Jesus' public ministry may be heard by all who have committed abortion. May they know that the Lord calls them to conversion, and may they experience life-giving repentance.
Our Father... (10) Hail Mary’s... All Glory Be... O my Jesus ... Jesus, protect and save the unborn.
FOURTH LUMINOUS MYSTERY
“We pray for government leaders who support abortion."
The Transfiguration
Christ is transformed on the mountain, and the disciples see His glory. May the eyes of all people be transformed, that they may see each and every human life as a reflection of the glory of God Himself.
Our Father... (10) Hail Mary’s... All Glory Be... O my Jesus ... Jesus, protect and save the unborn.

FIFTH LUMINOUS MYSTERY
“We pray for any religious leader who does not speak out against abortion."
Jesus gives us the Eucharist
“This is My Body, given up for you." The Eucharist teaches us how to live and how to love. Let us pray that parents who sacrifice the babies for the sake of themselves may learn instead to put themselves aside for the sake of their babies.
Our Father... (10) Hail Mary’s... All Glory Be... O my Jesus ... Jesus, protect and save the unborn.
FIRST SORROWFUL MYSTERY
“We seek Blessed Mother’s protection over the unborn."
The Agony in the Garden
Let us pray for mothers and fathers who are in agony because they are tempted to abort a child. May they be given the good news that there are alternatives, and may they make use of the help that is available.
Our Father... (10) Hail Mary’s... All Glory Be... O my Jesus ... Jesus, protect ...
SECOND SORROWFUL MYSTERY
“We pray for guidance for all involved in the abortion industry and mothers considering abortion."
The Scourging at the Pillar
As Christ’s flesh was torn by the instruments of those who scourged Him, so the bodies of babies in the womb are torn by the instruments of the abortionists. Let us pray that abortionists may repent of these acts of child- killing.
Our Father... (10) Hail Mary’s... All Glory Be... O my Jesus ... Jesus, protect and save the unborn.
THIRD SORROWFUL MYSTERY
“We pray for the conversion of anyone who supports abortion.”
The Crowning With Thorns
Jesus suffered the pain of thorns in His Head, and did so silently. We pray for the mothers and fathers of aborted children. So many of them suffer deep grief and regret over a choice they can never reverse. So many suffer in silence, because others tell them it’s no big deal.
Our Father... (10) Hail Mary’s... All Glory Be... O my Jesus ... Jesus, protect and save the unborn.
FOURTH SORROWFUL MYSTERY
“We pray for government leaders who support abortion."
The Carrying of the Cross
Jesus was not condemned by the power of wicked people. He was condemned because of the silence of good people. Silence always helps the oppressor, never the victim. Let us pray that we may never be silent about abortion, but rather will clearly speak up to save babies from death.
Our Father... (10) Hail Mary’s... All Glory Be... O my Jesus ... Jesus, protect and save the unborn.
FIFTH SORROWFUL MYSTERY
“We pray for any religious leader who does not speak out against abortion."
The Crucifixion
As we ponder the death of Christ, let us remember the many women who have died from so-called “safe, legal” abortions. Let us ask forgiveness and mercy for them. May their memory save other women from making this tragic mistake.
Our Father... (10) Hail Mary’s... All Glory Be... O my Jesus ... Jesus, protect and save the unborn.
FIRST GLORIOUS MYSTERY
“We seek Blessed Mother’s protection over the unborn."
The Resurrection
Christ is Risen! By His Resurrection, He has destroyed the power of death, and therefore the power of abortion. The outcome of the battle for Life has already been decided: Life is victorious! Let us pray that all pro-lifers will spread this victory to every segment of our society.
Our Father... (10) Hail Mary’s... All Glory Be... O my Jesus ... Jesus, protect and save the unborn.

SECOND GLORIOUS MYSTERY
“We pray for guidance for all involved in the abortion industry and mothers considering abortion."
The Ascension
By ascending to the Father’s throne, Christ takes our human nature, given to us in the womb, to the heights of Heaven. He shows us that human beings are made to be raised to heaven, not thrown in the garbage. Let us pray that the world may learn this Truth and reject abortion.
Our Father... (10) Hail Mary’s... All Glory Be... O my Jesus ... Jesus, protect and save the unborn.
THIRD GLORIOUS MYSTERY
“We pray for the conversion of anyone who supports abortion.”
The Descent of the Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is the Advocate: He pleads our cause, for we cannot save ourselves. We pray that He will make us advocates for the babies, who cannot speak or write or vote or protest or even pray.
Our Father... (10) Hail Mary’s... All Glory Be... O my Jesus ... Jesus, protect and save the unborn.
FOURTH GLORIOUS MYSTERY
“We pray for government leaders who support abortion."
The Assumption
The Blessed Virgin Mary was taken body and soul into Heaven because she is the Mother of God. Mother and child are united. The Assumption reminds us that they belong together. We pray that society will see that it cannot love women while killing their children, and cannot save children without helping their mothers. We pray that people will be touched by the pro-life question, “Why can’t we love them both?”
Our Father... (10) Hail Mary’s... All Glory Be... O my Jesus ... Jesus, protect and save the unborn.
FIFTH GLORIOUS MYSTERY
“We pray for any religious leader who does not speak out against abortion."
The Coronation
Mary is the Queen of the Universe. The Church teaches that She is the greatest creature, second only to God Himself. The Church defends the dignity of women. We pray that people will understand that to be pro-life means to be pro-woman, and that to be pro-woman demands that we be pro-life.
Our Father... (10) Hail Mary’s... All Glory Be... O my Jesus ... Jesus, protect and save the unborn.
3. CLOSING PRAYERS (Optional prayers may be added.)
Hail, Holy Queen, Mother of Mercy! Our life, our sweetness and our hope! To Thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve; to Thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley of tears. Turn, then, most Gracious Advocate, Thine Eyes of mercy toward us, and after this our exile, show unto us the blessed Fruit of Thy Womb, Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.
V. Pray for us, O Holy Mother of God.
R. That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
Let us pray. O God, Whose Only Begotten Son, by His life, death and resurrection, has purchased for us the rewards of eternal life, grant, we beseech Thee, that meditating upon these Mysteries of the most Holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary, we may imitate what they contain, and obtain what they promise through the same Christ, Our Lord. Amen.
