We are reading A Blessing in Disguise by Immaculée Ilibagiza
First session Thursday, April 25
In A Blessing in Disguise, New York Times
best-selling author Immaculée Ilibagiza teaches readers how to pray the
rosary of the seven sorrows for greater wisdom, strength, and
forgiveness. Readers will rediscover this important message from Mary. Mary wanted
the whole world to know the seven sorrows rosary, and Immaculée not only
shares it, but explains Mary’s specific teachings for how to pray it,
as well as offers the promises attached to the prayers.
The
Rosary of the Seven Sorrows dates back to the Middle Ages, but it
gained new popularity following the sightings of the Blessed Virgin Mary
that occurred in the 1980s in Kibeho, Rwanda. During these sightings,
which were approved by the Vatican, Mary asked that this special rosary
be introduced to the world. It was spread widely to thousands of people,
who then taught it to thousands of others.
Immaculée
also reveals incredible real-life stories from people who have been
healed through this prayer. These miracles include healing of
addictions, healing of “incurable” illnesses, including stage 4
pancreatic cancer and infertility, and more. Besides those miracles,
there are many other everyday blessings to be had, including inner
peace, healthier marriages, happier careers, and more.
Mary said, “Help me, my children, to spread this blessing, this prayer, I will reward those who will do.”
