Pray for the Church’s missionary work and people throughout the world with this One-Decade World Mission Rosary.
The wood beads feature the five colors traditionally used in the World Mission Rosary designed by Bl. Fulton Sheen when he was appointed as National Director for the Society of the Propagation of the Faith. This one-decade version encourages Catholics to remember the universal Church in prayer.
Each colorrepresents a different area where the Church continues its mission of evangelization:
- Green: for the forests and grasslands of Africa.
- Blue: for the ocean surrounding the Islands of the Pacific.
- White: symbolizing Europe, the seat of the Holy Father, shepherd of the world..
- Red: calling to mind the fire of faith that brought missionaries to the Americas.
- Yellow: the morning light of the East, for Asia.
Knotted brown cord, a Marian centerpiece, and an antique gold-tone Crucifix complete this simple and meaningful devotional that unites us all as children of God.
