One of my Rosary broke. Its a plastic one and the crucifix broke in half. It is the one that I always carried with me and it was in one of those rosary pouches. And I guess it broke while in my pocket. I have heard that I am suppose to dig a hole and put it in the ground. Is this true? How deep of a hole? Do I put the rosary in something before I do it?

Can it be repaired? A bit of epoxy might do the trick.

If not, I bury mine under a rosebush. If that’s not possible, bury it someplace (and deep enough) so it won’t be disturbed.

What type of epoxy? I was going to bury it in the back yard but I know that theres a chance that I will be moving soon does that matter?

I use 15-ton epoxy for all my epoxy needs (Not the kind in the syringe, not because of quality issues, but because a lot goes to waste. I found some in individual use packets, it’s easy to use–just pop the inner packet and kneed, and no waste to boot.), but any sort of Epoxy from the automotive section of your general merchandiser (Wal-Mart et al.) should work fine for something like that.

It shouldn’t matter if you move.
 
I make new rosaries from old broken ones. beads I can’t use I have buried in my flower garden. Some of my rosaries mean a great deal to me, those I put in caskets with loved ones or bury at their graves.
