rosary recitation

From the sixteenth century onwards, rosary recitations often involved "picture texts" that assisted meditation.

The Pope led the Rosary recitation, a meditation, and a Eucharist ceremony.

Two well known Marian devotions are the Rosary recitation and the wearing of the Brown Scapular.

Programming includes Christian films, documentaries on church activities, talk shows, interviews, holy songs, rosary recitation, Bible quiz competitions and live Sunday Mass.

Mike Slate, a regular at St. John Neumann's Monday night rosary recitations, remembers a strong odor of roses in the bare chapel that evening.

Reports of the Fatima apparitions helped spread rosary devotions and a Fatima prayer is now often added to the end of rosary recitations.

A wide range of Marian devotions are followed by Catholics ranging from simple Rosary recitations to formalized, multi-day Novenas to activities which do not involve any prayers, such the wearing of scapulars or maintaining a Mary garden.

Saints and popes have emphasized the meditative and contemplative elements of the rosary and provided specific teachings for how the rosary should be prayed, for instance the need for "focus, respect, reverence and purity of intention" during rosary recitations and contemplations.
