Many belief systems have a form of Prayer Beads within their belief system, regardless of the label which is applied to the Prayer Beads. Perhaps the most recognised of all Prayer Beads within Western Society is the Catholic Rosary. Regardless of which label is used, Prayer Beads are an excellent and traditional meditation tool. The use of the Rosary Prayer Beads is not restricted to followers of the Catholic faith. The Rosary may be either be used for formal Rosary prayer, or for our own, personal prayers. Some choose to carry a Rosary on their person or in their car for spiritual protection. |

The mission of the Holy Cross Family Ministry, is to encourage family prayer, especially the Rosary. To fulfil their mission, Holy Cross Family Ministry, distributes rosaries in a continuation of the work which was began by Father Patrick Peyton, CSC. "To share with families of the world that peace, the prayer, the love and the togetherness I experienced in the Rosary home, would be my thanks. This would be my mission. This would be my priesthood's power and energy. And so was born the Family Rosary Crusade." Father Patrick Peyton, CSC from "MY STORY" |

It does not matter whether we choose to use a Rosary, Prayer Beads, virtual tools or simply our own thoughts and feelings to carry our prayers. The power of prayer is within the intent, which is why virtual tools to assist our prayers are possible.The benefit of the use of tools within our process of prayer, or universal request is that tools help to focus our mediation, our prayers, our universal requests. |
