This is the movement of the Holy Family.

So welcome to our daily rosary meditation.

Today, we were in the village of Ein Karam,

the birthplace of John the Baptist. John the Baptist is a very important

person for us during Lent because he calls us to repentance and conversion.

So let's begin in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Amen.

Let's call to mind all those that we've promised to pray for.

St. John the Baptist was one of the greatest Saints of all time.

Perhaps no one gets greater praise from Jesus than he does,

since the Lord says, of all men born of women there is no one greater than John the Baptist.

What was John's secret?

How did he attain such heights of holiness and how could he become the greatest of the Old Testament prophets?

More importantly, how can we imitate his virtue?

Our Father who art in heaven, hollow would be your name,

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us to stay our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses,

as we forgive those who trespass against us,

and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil.

Hail Mary full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Blessed art thou among women.

Blessed is a fruit of thy womb Jesus.
