Some weeks ago I did at that site. The thing is, I am in the Uk, should I wait for a Certificate from the site or apply here in the Uk? Thanks

I heard that thereā€™s a Rosary Confraternity in Europe as wellā€¦ it might take a very long time for your certificate to get to you from the US, so maybe you can try this:
english.op.org/Rosary_Confraternity.html

Under ā€˜contactsā€™, it says:

I just realized that I made the exact same thread a while ago:blush: so sorry I forgot!!

So this is worldwide with membership only stemming from this sight?
 
I enrolled through the rosary center site and got my certificate not too long after šŸ‘ Iā€™m also getting newsletters every once in a while. I enjoy all of it; Iā€™ve even bought some things from their catalog.
 
I was enrolled in the Confraternity on June 22, 2003ā€¦ :gopray:

God bless
 
Certainly seems to be a fantastic idea, I must involve myself.

God Bless,

I really want to join as well šŸ™‚

is it free? (including the newsletters)

do you think it would take a really long time for the certificate to get to me, cause I live in Canadaā€¦
 
I enrolled through that site from the US. Iā€™m in Europe and had to wait approximately 8 weeks for my certificate. šŸ™‚
 
I have been enrolled in the Rosary Confraternity since November 21, 2009. It is a wonderful feeling to know that each day that I pray the rosary I am praying for all my brothers and sisters in the confraternity and that they in turn are praying for me. Also my daily prayer life has been helped a great deal by joining the confraternity since by joining it I have agreed to try and pray the entire rosary each week (preferrably 5 decades each day of the week). Though this agreement does not bind under sin, I still feel bad if I fail to live up to my agreement, and so it helps to keep me praying even at times when I may not feel up to it. Also, by reciting the Rosary Confraternity prayer prior to praying the rosary, you are praying for the holy souls in Purgatory ā€œespecially the members of the Rosary Confraternity who have diedā€. This in turn gives us the comfort of knowing that our brothers and sisters in this confraternity will continue to pray for us after our death.

To answer a few of the questions posed by others:

Yes, it is free to join the Rosary Confraternity.

I received my certificate of admission into the confraternity within a few weeks of joining.

I have received the bi-monthly newsletter the Rosary Light and Life since joining and have never been asked to pay for this subscription.

With the bi-monthly newsletter also comes a novena that one can pray during certain weeks of that month along with other members of the confraternity, knowing that the Dominicans are offering masses at the same time for your intentions. You can also elect to donate to the Dominicans at the same time, which I try to do each time I receive the newsletter and novena prayer in the mail.

In the end I highly suggest that anyone who already enjoys praying the rosary and does so on a regular basis sign up to join the Rosary Confraternity. By doing so you are joining a large family that shares your love for the Lord and for praying the Blessed Motherā€™s favorite prayer.
 
I think you need to donate $10 per year to get the newsletters - at least thereā€™s something about a $10 subscription in the newsletter.
