| 0:00.0 | Welcome to our daily rosary meditation. Let's begin in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. |
| 0:04.8 | Amen. Let's call to mind all those we've promised to pray for. One of Christ's extraordinary miracles, |
| 0:13.3 | one that doesn't get a lot of description, was his raising of a widow's son in Nain. |
| 0:28.9 | In fact, I've actually driven by this small village at least 30 times, and I've never even stopped. |
| 0:31.7 | Now, when Jesus approached this town, they were in the middle of a funeral procession, and they were taking the body out of the city, |
| 0:41.2 | taking him to bury him, to put him in the ground. And Jesus walked up and raised the corpse back to life. |

| 1:39.5 | And if so, what would it be and what might it teach us? |
| 1:47.7 | Our Father who art in heaven, hallow it be your name, |
| 1:50.6 | thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. |
| 1:53.7 | Give us to stay our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses, |
| 1:57.9 | as we forgive those who trespass against us |
| 2:00.8 | and lead us not into temptation |
| 2:03.0 | but deliver us from evil amen. |
