I buy rosaries at the flea market, have them blessed, and donate them to the youth group.

My favorite ones are kelly green and I added the cross from my grandmas rosary and a medal of St Anne, and a celtic cross for St. Patrick.

I had an amesome one, until December, when I gave it away...it my only rosary...it was from Mexico, from the Basilica of Our lady of Guadalupe....it cost me some to give it away but hey, it was a christmas sacrifice lol

Now I only have a plastic glow in the dark one, it's cheap but hey! it's a rosary, and that's what counts....the way the prayers arrive.... :D

I can't get another one, my parents would kill me (lol)....they think i;m a religious freak! :lol:

I tend to forget my Rosary, becasue I only have one, when I go someplace. I tend to use my 2 hands and ten fingers. One finger for each Hail Mary and I keep track of the other stuff in my head.

I was never able to put together the 10 finger thing till this summer. One night on a retreat one of the guys said he couldn't lead becasue he didnt have a Rosary with him. A bunkmate told him this. It can come in handy.

yeah...a couple of weeks ago when i was on this camping trip all the freshmen go on called Outward Bound (we canoed for 5 days in the Everglades/Gulf of Mexico!), i enjoyed it immensely, but one night we had do something called "solo"

we had to spend a night alone on separate keys (little islands)

i thought "cool, whatever"

well...it was scary.

Racoons kept staring with their green eyes all around me and although i knew no one was in the forest around me it was SO dark and scary...i was miles and miles from anyone.

Mama Mary helped me through that night...hehe...i fell asleep saying the rosary...on my fingers, of course! :D

Today I was at the Church returning some 'Mysteries of the Bible' video tapes, and withdrawing some others. On my way out I noticed a stack of 'Catholic Digest's' and on the back they had an add for the most beautiful rosary I have seen in a long time. It was an Irish theme, the beeds were a beautiful Irish green (and I think they were marble.) The links were gold coloured, the cross was gold with black markings on it, and the medal on it was the shape of a clover, with a picture of who I believe to be Saint Patrick.

I'm about 50% Irish, heritage wise that is, and I have always been proud of those roots. I wouldn't mind having that rosary, I just need to get some money. I checked the bank yesterday and I had -1.07 dollars. I'm in debt to my bank! How on earth does that happen, I'm 17! I find it hilarious! Oh well, there's a job opening at the coagulated milk Store.

Also, 'Vatican Gifts' has amazing 'Precious Materials' rosaries that are simply amazing. Check out the website, http://www.vaticangift.com/

There is some really amazing Irish/Celtic rosaries out there, just do a search on 'google', you will not be disapointed.

They are stunning.
