Question
Hi,

I have been looking at rosary for quite a while and have noticed a vast number of differences amongst them.  Is there a certain type of rosary with a certain type of color or stone I should get?  Are there certain meanings for the different colors for the stones?  Should my rosary consist of images of the crucifix AND Mary?

Thank you

Answer
Dear Brandy:

The things you mention are all of a personal perference. It is simply what you like that matters.The important thing is the prayers that you say from your heart. I pray the rosary daily.

If I can be of further assistance please let me know.

God Be With You,
Sal
