Mama Mary lead us in prayer...



We, the Filipinos are Mama Marys beloved children. She has shown Her maternal love for our predominantly catholic country by way of various manifestations and miracles throughout the islands. This affection is best reciprocated in the loving name we have given our Blessed Virgin Mother… “Mama Mary”.

In turn, She has called the people of the Philippines “My children”. In recognition of this close personal relationship, the Philippines have been consecrated to the Immaculate Conception and Our Lady of Guadalupe. The Filipino people have paid tribute to Her through countless titles and devotions. Remember, irregardless of so many titles, there is only one Mama Mary... THE MOTHER OF GOD!

It is then only befitting for us to join together in prayers of gratitude and thanksgiving to our beloved "Mama Mary" for interceding for our needs and petitions to her Beloved Son, Jesus. And one of the best ways to give back this gift is to pray the rosary as taught by our blessed Mama Mary to St. Dominic. The Rosary is a reminder of important events in the life of Jesus Christ and our devotion to the Incarnation of our Lord and His Blessed Mother.

As we journey through the mysteries of the rosary: joyful, sorrowful, glorious and luminous mysteries we commit to memory our Lord's Incarnation, His passion and death and then his resurrection from the dead and eventually His transfiguration and the institution of the Holy Eucharist. In so doing, the rosary allows us to grow into a deeper understanding and appreciation of the mysteries of the life of our Lord and to help encourage us into a life of faith. Through the power of the rosary, the Blessed Mother leads us to her Beloved Son Jesus.
