ROSARIES FROM THE 1600s
During the 1600's the Apostles Creed is added to
the Rosary Prayer and the overall configuration and prayer sequence of
the Rosary is becoming more and more universally the same. In 1627
King Louis the XIII of France orders public recitation of the Rosary against
the rebellious Huguenots. Fifteen thousand Rosaries are distributed to
the troops with set hours of prayer. The battle is won and France is saved.

OUR LADY OF THE ROSARY
St. Louis DeMontfort is born in Brittany
in 1673. He will be the founder of two religious orders in his lifetime.
Many of his sermons are now in book form, ‘True Devotion to Mary,’‘The
Secret of Mary’ and the ‘Secret of the Rosary’ are the most popular. Today
these books guide those who choose to Consecrate their lives to Jesus through
Mary.

Ten years later, the Saracens try to invade Austria.
Their navy is broken but their army is strong. They try to take over the
Balkan area by going into Vienna. King Leopold turns to Our Lady of the
Rosary and the city is miraculously saved.
