Olive Wood Rosary

Product Description

The story of the rosary was that Mary herself appeared to Saint Dominic in the twelfth century. At that time, she gave him the rosary and promised Dominic that if he spread devotion to the rosary, his religious order would flourish. Originally the rosary had **0 beads, the same number of psalms in the Bible. In the twelfth century, religious orders recited together the **0 Psalms as a way to mark the hours of the day and the days of the week. This first rosary was prayed as we do today, a person would pass their fingers over each bead and say a prayer, usually the Our Father and Hail Mary. This Olive Wood rosary is a wall Rosary with Icon of Our Virgin Mary.
