Our Lady of the Rosary told St. Dominick, “One day through the Rosary and Scapular I will save the world”. Saint Louis de Montfort was a French Catholic priest, who was known for his particular devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary and the practice of praying the Rosary. he wrote that in the year 1214 Holy Mother Church received the Rosary in its present form.
It was given to the Church by St. Dominick who received it from the Blessed Virgin as a powerful means of converting the Albigensians and other sinners.
Like St. Dominick, Blessed Father Alan de la Roche was a Dominican priest who was one of the great apostles of the Catholic church for spreading the Holy Rosary. His vision of the restoration of the devotion of the Rosary took place in 1460.

Here are the 15 Promises of Our Lady to Christians Who Recite the Rosary
- Whoever shall faithfully serve Me by the recitation of the Rosary, shall receive signal graces.
- I promise My special protection and the greatest graces to all who shall recite the Rosary.
- The Rosary shall be a powerful armor against hell, it will destroy vice, decrease sin, and defeat heresies.
- It will cause virtue and good works to flourish; it will obtain for souls the abundant mercy of God; it will withdraw the hearts of men from the love of the world and its vanities, and will lift them to the desire of eternal things. Oh, that souls would sanctify themselves by this means.
- The soul which recommends itself to Me by the recitation of the Rosary, shall not perish.
- Whoever shall recite the Rosary devoutly, applying himself to the consideration of its sacred mysteries, shall never be conquered by misfortune.

- Whoever shall have a true devotion for the Rosary shall not die without the Sacraments of the Church.

In the words of Blessed Alan de Roche, the Holy Rosary “is the root and storehouse of countless blessings.” One day Our Lady said to Blessed Alan, “I want people to have a devotion to my Rosary to have my Son’s grace and blessing during their lifetime and at their death I want them to be freed from all slavery so that they will be like kings wearing crowns and with scepters in their hands and enjoying eternal glory.”
