The rosary is the Church's best loved prayer: five decades of Hail Marys while meditating on the life of Jesus and Mary. A good rosary is held every day for years, so we choose strong chains and beads that feel right in the hand.

Here you will find St. Benedict rosaries for protection, St. John Paul II and Padre Pio rosaries with a second-class relic in the center, rosaries with a capsule of Lourdes water, rose petal rosaries for First Communion and Confirmation, olive wood rosaries and rosaries handmade by the nuns of Medjugorje.

Items marked as blessed are taken from our shop in Rome to the Papal audience in St. Peter's Square, are blessed by Pope Leo XIV and ship with a holy card of the Papal blessing. For the rosaries chosen as gifts see Rosaries Blessed by the Pope, and for relic rosaries see Relic Rosaries.
