GIVING HONOR & GLORY TO GOD THROUGH OUR BLESSED MOTHER'S ROSARY
THE PURPOSE OF THIS PAGE IS TO POINT OUT THE UNIQUE FEATURES
OF THE SOLDIERS ROSARY AND PROVIDE INFORMATION RELATING

A LOT OF THOUGHT WENT INTO ITS DESIGN. SEVERAL PEOPLE PROVIDED INPUT AND WE ARE GRATEFUL FOR THEIR HELP. THE ILLUSTRATION BELOW CONTAINS QUOTES FROM
SOME OF THEM.
WE ALSO RECEIVED MUCH HELP

WAS MOST NEEDED.
SOLDIERS ROSARY
SOLDIERS ROSARY
- A SOLDIER IS A SKILLED WARRIOR.
- ANY MEMBER OF THE MILITARY, REGARDLESS OF BRANCH OF SERVICE, IS CONSIDERED A SOLDIER.
- IT'S NOT NECESSARY TO BE A MEMBER OF THE MILITARY TO BE A SOLDIER IN OUR BLESSED MOTHER'S ARMY.
- WE ARE INVOLVED IN A SPIRITUAL WAR AGAINST THE EVIL ONE.
- WE CAN'T DO IT BY OURSELVES; WE NEED GOD'S HELP.
- THE ROSARY IS THE WEAPON GOD GAVE US, THROUGH THE BLESSED MOTHER, FOR PROTECTION FROM THE EVIL ONE.
- IT WILL ONLY WORK IF WE USE IT FOR PRAYER.

CRUCIFIX
CRUCIFIX
A BLACK INLAID CROSS WITH THE GREEK LETTERS, ALPHA-OMEGA
(THE BEGINNING AND THE END) & CHI-RHO
(JESUS CHRIST)
ON THE REVERSE.
EACH END OF THE CRUCIFIX HAS THREE "BUMPS" OR BUDS, A REMINDER OF THE BLESSED TRINITY.
WHEREVER ONE PERSON OF THE TRINITY GOES, THE OTHER TWO ARE ALSO THERE.
Note: We try to use only crucifixes with the Greek letters on the reverse. However, they are not always available.

OUR FATHER BEADS
OUR FATHER BEADS
MADE FROM 9MM AND .40 S&W NICKEL PLATED BRASS SHELL CASES. WE USE THEM AS A REMINDER THAT THE ROSARY IS A POWERFUL SPIRITUAL WEAPON IN THE FIGHT AGAINST THE EVIL ONE. IT ALSO BRINGS TO MIND THE BIBLE REFERENCE OF BEATING SWORDS (WEAPONS) INTO PLOW SHARES.
~~~
HAIL MARY BEADS
HAIL MARY BEADS
MADE FROM PAINTED OX-BONE. THE OX IS A STURDY, RELIABLE ANIMAL REPRESENTING TENACITY,
THOROUGHNESS AND PERSEVERENCE.
THESE ARE QUALITIES EVERY SOLDIER
NEEDS FOR SUCCESS IN BATTLE.
OXEN WERE USED FOR SACRIFICIAL OFFERINGS IN THE OLD TESTAMENT.
THEY ALSO RECALL THE SACRIFICIAL VICTIM OF THE NEW LAW, OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST AND HIS PASSION.

CORD
CORD
BLACK NYLON SEINE TWINE, THE SAME STUFF USED IN MAKING COMMERCIAL FISHING NETS.
IT IS A REMINDER THAT
OUR LORD
JESUS CHRIST
CHOSE THE APOSTLES TO BECOME
"FISHERS OF MEN."
