A question re rosary and saint-prayers

[hermitcrab]

Thank you.

But it is not required but optional…

The diversity of responses is confusing.

You probably don’t need an expert to answer your question. I hope you’ve already got the answer. Praying the rosary is not required, and we do not pray to the Saints as the way we pray to God. Praying to the saints is as same as asking your loved ones to pray for you, except they are the ones who are in Heaven, who see God face to face, who are pure at heart and have so much love for God and for those who are still on earth.
