Rosary Meditations for Parents and Children
The Visitation
1. Think that God, the Almighty God, so loved this world that He came
in a womb of a human person, the Virgin Mary.
2. The Angel Gabriel told Mary that her cousin Elizabeth had conceived
a child in her old age.
3. Mary, carrying the Child Jesus, made haste to visit her cousin
Elizabeth.
4. When Mary arrived at Elizabeth’s house, Elizabeth was filled with the
Holy Spirit, and she said, “‘Why should I be honoured with a visit from
the mother of my Lord?’” (Lk. 1:43)
5. Elizabeth said that the child within her womb leapt for joy at the presence
of Jesus in Mary’s womb.
6. Do we cherish the great gift that we are given today, that Jesus lives in
the Holy Eucharist?
7. Jesus is as present as He was in the womb of Mary.
8. Mary, filled with the Holy Spirit, cried out the Magnificat.
Song: My Soul Rejoices
9. If we would see Mary carrying the Child Jesus, we would be in awe.
Jesus is in the tabernacle this very moment, as present as He was in
Mary’s womb.
10. Jesus wants us to know how much He loves us, that He remains with us
in the Holy Eucharist.
A special meditation before the Glory Be:
He wants us to tell Him how much we love Him.
The Birth of Our Lord
1. Mary loves us and wants us to call on her. Mary is with us at every
moment.
2. She listens to all of our prayers and wants to lead us to the love of her
Son.
3. The Child Jesus was born in a little stable in Bethlehem.
4. Mary is our Mother. She cares for us today.
5. Jesus gave us His Mother that we would go to her and that she would
help us toward our goal, which is life in heaven.
6. Mary took such good care of Jesus. She loved Him. She loves Him with
such tender love. She loves us so tenderly also.
7. When we love each other, we are loving Jesus.
8. The devil wants us to remain sorrowful inside. Mary, our Mother, walks
by our sides and helps us to live in peace and joy.
