Queen of Peace Rosaries
It is believed by many that Mary has appeared to six young people in a town
called Medjugorje of the former Yugoslavvia. These apparitions began in our
lifetime, in 1981 and continue until today. The parish of the visionaries
refers to Mary as Our Lady, Queen of Peace who warns us that peace will only come to the world if we convert, pray and fast. The visionaries tell us
that the Queen of peace enjoins us to pray and that one of the prayers she
encourages is the rosary, although she espouses first of all the Holy Mass.
Queen of Peace is an appropriate name for Mary here because she entreats us
always to pray for peace, and reminds us that peace will only come through
prayer and conversion to God. ³Gospa², as the visionaries call the Queen of
Peace, has taught them a new rosary which consists of seven mysteries about
the life of Jesus, but she encourages us to pray any rosaries, any prayer, and
to receive the Holy Eucharist. Mary comes to us as the Queen of Peace at a
time when peace seems a hopeless cause, but she promises us we can avert
catastrophe with fasting, the rosaries and other prayers, attendance at Mass
and a true conversion of ourselves to God. We pray the rosaries with Mary,
the Queen of Peace, knowing that as a mother wants only the best for her
children, she wants this peace for us. Mary asks us to pray the rosaries with
lively faith-³only this way can I help you.² In another apparition, the
Queen of Peace says ³At all times, fill your heart with even the smallest
prayers.² Each of us can take up his or her rosary, or just fold hands and
try to live this message of peace, because it is in the interest of all
nations and all peoples, whether or not you believe the young people in
Medjugorje have truly seen the Queen of Peace.
