Anything under the Sun
Mother Rosario (5)
V. Pious Life
Before entering the Convent she nurtured her prayer life by frequently visiting the Blessed Sacrament. She was often seen absorbed in prayers before the Blessed Sacrament reserved in their family chapel. Prayer was her way of asking God’s blessings for the family and other people. She would invite her neighbors’ children to pray the rosary kneeling while she led the prayers.
As a religious she had a great devotion to the Holy Eucharist and to the Lord in the Blessed Sacrament. Her devotion to the Holy Eucharist inspired her successors to have the chapel the daily exposition and adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. She loved very much the Blessed Virgin Mary that when she was not occupied with her duties as a superior she would spend time praying the rosary. Every image of the Blessed Mother received an Ave Maria every time she passed by it. She moved around the corridors with her lips moving in prayer. Her love for the Blessed Virgin was captured in a poetry written in Spanish. In her will and testament she stipulated that the different feasts of the Blessed Virgin should be celebrated with a High Mass.
