This is the movement of the Holy Family.

Welcome to our daily Rosary meditation.

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

Amen.

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

When someone from a small town goes out into the world and becomes a kind of celebrity, you expect that when they come back home, they'll be given a hero's welcome. Everyone likes a local boy who makes it big.

He's a credit to the people he comes from. But that wasn't what happened with Jesus.

When he came back to Nazareth, no one took him seriously.

They said, we know him. We know his parents.

Where does he get off acting like a big deal, a big profit and teacher and wonder worker?

They had no faith in him.

The people he belonged to, they wouldn't accept him.

It was one of the greatest sorrows of Jesus' life,

and it is sometimes one of the greatest hardships of our own.

When a son or daughter, spouse or family member or friend won't accept Jesus or his teachings or the church.

It's very hard.

Our Father who art in heaven, hallow it 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, Amen.

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

Blessed art thou among women. Blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus.

Holy Mary, mother of God.
