My Problem with the Rosary
Pat McCloskey, OFM
May 24, 2018
I was raised Catholic but drifted away in my early 20s. I came back in my late 20s, very much influenced by a man who prayed the rosary with great devotion.
Unfortunately, he eventually betrayed me, lied to me, and acted in a completely ungodly way. Now when I try to pray the rosary, I can’t stop thinking about him and how he betrayed me. Does the rosary still count for people like that?
Telling My Children About Muslims
Pat McCloskey, OFM

I am a Roman Catholic mother. What should I tell my children about Muslims and their faith? The history of Islam is terrible, and what is happening now in Europe is no better.
You should tell them what the Catholic Church believes: Muslims are people created and loved by God. Like all other people, some of their members reflect that love better than others. Although some Muslims are terrorists, the vast majority of Muslims are not.
