St Raphael's School

St Raphael's School A mixed Catholic Primary School in Northolt, London. Good with outstanding behaviour, Ofsted. We believe that St. As we walk with Jesus we love, live and learn.

Raphael’s School exists to be a vibrant, worshipping and welcoming community – a living example of our faith. We all have an important role to play in building our community. This is reflected in how we learn, laugh, play and worship together, showing care, respect, support and forgiveness and for each other as we walk with Jesus. On our journey together, we are a sign of God’s presence to each person we meet. Therefore, each day we do our very best in our search for truth and justice and all that we do. As a strong, supportive community, we reach out to others and recognise our responsibility to make this a better and fair world for all.

The feasts in October include one of the most popular, time-honoured devotion of Catholics, the devotion to the Holy Rosary – Our Lady of the Holy Rosary (October 7).

Beads and Psalms: In ancient times, beads were a tool for memorizing prayer. Monks prayed the psalms from the Bible each day and used beads to keep track of them. Many Christians wanted to continue the tradition of the monks but they could not read and some could not afford Bibles so they prayed 150 Hail Marys since there are 150 psalms in the Old Testament.

The traditional Rosary is divided into three parts, which tells the story of Jesus’ life (see “How to Pray the Rosary” pamphlet):

- The Joyful Mystery of the Rosary = The Announcement of Jesus’ arrival, Jesus’ birth and Jesus’ childhood

- The Sorrowful Mystery of the Rosary = Jesus’ Suffering and death

- The Glorious Mystery of the Rosary = Jesus’ Resurrection from death and Ascension into Heaven, and his Mother Mary’s Assumption into Heaven and her Crowning as Queen of Heaven and Earth

Each Mystery consists of five mysteries, which are scripture readings from the Bible.

1 decade = 10 Hail Marys

1 rosary = x 5 Decades / 5 Mysteries

1 rosary = 50 Hail Marys x 3 parts with 5 Mysteries each = 150 Hail Marys in a Traditional Rosary

These prayers, together with others, are prayed from the heart while reflecting on the Scriptural mysteries of Jesus and Mary. This prayer was named the Rosary, which came from a Latin word meaning “garland of roses.” Praying the rosary is like offering a bouquet of prayers to God in honour of Jesus and Mary.

Try to make a more concerted effort to pray the Rosary together as a family during the month of October.
