August 19, 2026, Holy Rosary (Glorious Mysteries)

Friends of the Rosary,God’s mercy, grace, and generosity are received as gifts from Heaven. We don't earn them as a salary or even a reward for our behavior.In the Gospel today (Matthew 20:1–16), Christ the Lord shows a landowner paying even the late workers a full day’s wage.We shouldn't resent God’s generosity. We must let Him shepherd us, and rejoice when His mercy reaches others too.Christ is the true Shepherd, and His generosity is greater than our human sense of fairness.Today in Ezekiel's reading (Ezekiel 34:1–11), the Lord condemns selfish shepherds who exploit the flock rather than care for it, and then promises, “I myself will look after and tend my sheep.” The psalm of the day (Psalm 23:1–3a, 3b–4, 5, 6) answers with trust: “The Lord is my shepherd; there is nothing I shall want.”The saint of the day is Saint John Eudes, a French priest known for preaching parish missions and promoting devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!
