Spem in alium Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 ...when most of the books on your bookshelf are about Catholicism. Yes! I think I need to buy a new set of shelves. ...if you carry multiple rosaries and a third-class relic in your bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandelynmarie Posted August 17, 2014 Author Share Posted August 17, 2014 ...you walk into your favorite Catholic gift shop & think, "I think I've managed to hang something from here in almost every room of my house!"

chrysostom Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 ...& you know how many rosaries &/or chaplets it takes to walk or drive somewhere! One church I've visited is one rosary away. Another is around 3/5ths of a rosary away. I know I'll have the Assumption and the Crowning to get to in the church if I start when I get in the car on a Sunday. If it's a little longer than a rosary I'll add some prayers for the Holy Souls, the bishop, my priests, my deceased relatives, my family, etc. and I can end the last Glory Be as I pull into the driveway. Unit of measurement: R Distance to church: 0.6R Jenny and Bill are driving to the Marian shrine 200 miles away. They can say a rosary in 25 miles of driving. How many rosaries can they say on the drive there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maximillion Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 I used to live the exact distance of the front and first inner page worth of reading The Catholic Herald from my church............(on foot of course). Since I never learned to drive, all my distances were in prayer lengths - what else can you do when walking? Another place it was one decade, a divine praises, hail holy queen and litany of the saints from town to my house. If I was carrying lots of shopping, an extra decade. You mean not everyone does this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean not everyone does this? No, because I don't really pay attention to the prayers when I do. I wish I could... but I inevitably find myself spending significant attention trying not to die. (I mean, I kinda have to check for traffic.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
