One of the strong points in the practice of the Holy Rosary is the remarkable unit it brings between personal and communal prayer. In saying together the Our Father and the Hail Mary, we are truly sharing what is deepest in the Christian soul. Accordingly, we are both within a very intimate spiritual exercise and in the midst of a stream of love and faith that inflows, covers and penetrates all of us. Regarding this point, we recall that the Catechism of the Catholic Church begins precisely joining the two expressions: “I believe – We believe.” This two-fold dimension of our faith has passed on to the Rosary, we can affirm.
