Fr. Calloway to Detroit lay ministers: Perseverance Beats the 'Perfect Rosary'

Post by Malachi »

DETROIT — What’s tiny and delicate at first sight, yet packs a powerful punch in the battle against Satan? For Fr. Donald Calloway, MIC, that’s easy: the rosary.

During a Nov. 10 talk at Sacred Heart Major Seminary, Fr. Calloway, a Catholic convert, author of 15 books and renowned speaker, brought his love and devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary and the holy rosary to Detroit as part of the seminary's Lay Ecclesial Ministry speaker series, reminding hundreds in attendance that the rosary is a powerful weapon.

“It doesn't look like much,” Fr. Calloway said, holding up his rosary. “But what God sees and what Our Lady sees and what the angels see is that what I'm holding in my hands is a weapon. A powerful weapon.”

Such language might seem aggressive or militaristic to some, Fr. Calloway said, but the rosary isn’t a weapon the same way that a sword or gun might be.

“It’s a spiritual weapon because the powers that we're up against are not the powers of man," Fr. Calloway explained. "St. Paul says we're in a spiritual battle. So yes, this is a weapon, but a spiritual weapon. The origin of this is from heaven itself.” ➡️ READ FULL ARTICLE HERE
