March 21, 2026, Saturday of the Fourth Week of Lent, Holy Rosary (Joyful Mysteries) | Sixth Anniversary of the Rosary Network

Friends of the Rosary,

Today in the Gospel (John 7:40-53), we see how even enemies of the faith can be conquered by the truth of Christ.

The guards sent to arrest Jesus returned empty-handed: they were overwhelmed by the power of His words. "Never has anyone spoken like this man," they said.

Meanwhile, the prideful Pharisees appealed to their own authority rather than examining the truth of Christ, following their own precepts.

The guards, with no theological training, recognized divine wisdom. The Pharisees, the learned and the proud, blind themselves.

John Chrysostom explained that encountering Christ demands a decision, as there is no neutral ground. We must choose: "Will we approach Jesus with openness, or will we let pride and presumption keep us from recognizing the Truth?"

Ave Maria!
Come, Holy Spirit, come!
To Jesus through Mary!

Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.
Please give us the grace to respond with joy!
