Meg Herriot meditates on how anxiety and the desire to control can be parenting pitfalls, butwe have a model in our Holy Mother. Praying the Mysteries of the Rosary: a Meandering Path I’ve written before about the gift of praying the Rosary, and how it has been a meandering path of Our Lady leading my family closer to her and our Lord. There have been some Mysteries of the Rosary that have been easier to enter into, to meditate on, and understand. I would say the Mystery of the Annunciation has always been more of a mystery to me. I was fortunate enough to take a trip to the place in the Holy Land where this mystery has been understood to have occurred. But obviously, I’ve never had anything similar to that situation happen, nor would I ever be worthy of it. So it seems harder to enter into, that is, until the other day.

Meg Herriot shares how learning about the life and message of Venerable Patrick Peyton has affected her whole family. Father Peyton was relatively unknown to my family up until this year. For all three generations, including my parents, who lived during his lifetime, this was a new introduction. We are blessed to have been exposed to his story, through the movie PRAY, going to a Rosary Rally at Notre Dame, and also by visiting his final resting place.
