'More Information regarding Catholic Monks and Rosaries:

The Role of Catholic Monks and Nuns.
Monks inhabit the lowest rung of the hierarchy in the Catholic Church. Religious brothers aren’t members of the clergy, but they aren’t members of the lay faithful, either. They’re called consecrated religious, which means that they’ve taken sacred vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience.
​

In each of the hundreds of different religious orders, communities, and congregations, the spirituality of the group is based on the founder of its congregation. Some communities specialize in teaching, and others in hospital work. Some engage in several active missions, and a few devote themselves to a cloistered life of contemplative prayer.


Consecrated religious live in community with other members of their order. They share all meals together and try to work together, pray together, and recreate together. Because they take a vow of poverty, they don’t own their own car, and they have no personal savings or checking accounts. The religious order they belong to provides all this, and they must ask their superiors when they need or want something.

The Holy Rosary, also known as the Dominican Rosary, refers to a form of prayer psalter used in the Catholic Church, and to the string of knots or beads used to count the component prayers. When used for the prayer, the word is usually capitalized, as is customary for other names of prayers, such as "The Lord's Prayer", and "The Hail Mary"; when referring to the beads, it is written with a lower-case initial letter.

The Holy
Rosary of the Virgin Mary is a contemplative and Christocentric prayer. With the Holy Rosary we meditate the mysteries of joy, of sorrow, of light, and the glory of Jesus and Mary. The word Rosary means Crown of Roses. How to pray the Rosary - The Rosary prayer is composed of twenty decades of Hail Mary and twenty Rosary mysteries.



“The source of love is deep in us and we can help others realize a lot of happiness. One word, one action, one thought can reduce another person’s suffering and bring that person joy.” 
– Thich Nhat Hanh, Zen Buddhist
