This is the movement of the Holy Family.

So welcome to our Rosary meditation.

We are in Nazareth, where Jesus, Mary and Joseph lived for, for sure, Jesus and Mary for 27 years, and they knew the value

of work. They did a value of work.

They did a lot of work here.

And it's from this place that we learn

the value of work,

inside the home and outside the home. So let's begin in the name of the

Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Let's call to mind all those that we've promised

to pray for.

A little special prayer for Teresa the Great

to normally praise the Rosary with me

who's stuck by herself in Frankfurt with a flight that was missed.

We get the whole world praying the Rosary for her now.

Now in Genesis, before sin entered the world, God commanded man to work. God gave us the gift of work.

Work was given to us before the fall, not after, was given as a great gift.

He told Adam to cultivate the garden, to work with his hands and making the world a better place.

Then when God came to Earth and he came to this place in Nazareth.

There in that home, in that workshop in Nazareth,

Jesus spent the bulk of his life, 27 years, at the home and at his adoptive

father's train. What could be so important about a home and work that God

come to Earth would choose to be at home and at work? 10 times as long as he would choose to be on the road preaching, healing, and working miracles.
