November 22, 2025, Feast of St. Cecilia, Holy Rosary (Joyful Mysteries)

Friends of the Rosary,Today, the eve of the solemnity of the kingship of Christ, we honor the beloved Saint Cecilia, virgin and martyr, who gave her life for Christ during the persecutions of the 3rd century.The tradition says that on her wedding day, Cecilia “sang to God in her heart” as she desired to live for Christ alone.However, with the help of an angel, Cecilia converted her pagan husband. Both died as martyrs.Since the 16th century, Cecilia has been invoked as the universal patroness of music. In art, she is shown playing the organ, viola, or lyre.As the Psalm states (33:2), “Give thanks to the Lord on the harp; on the ten-stringed lyre offer praise.”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!
