John 21:11 - miraculous catch of 153 fish - has a connection to the Rosary...
153 is an absolutely fascinating and beautiful number in its own right... And if you pray one complete traditional Rosary (Joyful, Sorrowful and Glorious mysteries, plus the three Ave Marias at the beginning after the Apostles' Creed and the initial Pater Noster) you get 153 Hail Marys.
Yes, absolutely! I think that 153 number in John is a prefiguration of Our Lady of the Rosary 100%! Not surprising given that St John lived with our Blessed Mother for years after Jesus' Ascension, having her stay in his home, and studying at her blessed feet. Pray for us, Seat of Wisdom!
I’m proud of your brother. You’re doing the work and constantly placing yourself under the Blessed Mothers mantle. I’m praying for you always and glad to have you as a part of this community.
Gabe is wonderful. I really like his interview with Tammy Peterson about the Rosary. I try to do at least 3 Rosaries a day. I find it to be a good way to align my mind with the rhythm of the divine mind. You might also like the movie Pray: The Story of Patrick Peyton. Fr. Peyton famously said, "When we pray the Rosary, God hears us—and it’s our way of saying ‘God, I love You’."
I offer some secular explanation for how praying the rosary helps. Not because that I doubt its supernatural efficacy, but rather because the natural world itself reflects the divine, and that's why it works

Mother Church needs apostles badly.
Thank you brother 🙏🙏🙏
So much truth. There is recent (within the last 10 years) scientific research on Marian devotion and healing - search in Pubmed.
