Day 210: Relationship With the Son
29/07/2026 | 14min
We continue deepening our practice of relational prayer, focusing on Jesus the Son. We place ourselves in his presence not abstractly, but intimately, as we step into the moment with him. This prayer time is not only for today’s encounter, but also for forming the habit of being with Christ so that in future decades, you can return to this space, this awareness, this relationship. Today’s focus is the mysteries of the Nativity and Presentation and we will be praying two decades of the Rosary.

Day 209: Praying With the Father
28/07/2026 | 15min
Today we begin Phase 5: Building Up the Decades. We begin to deepen not only the quantity but especially the quality of our prayer. This next phase is all about growing our capacity for contemplative, relational prayer, poco a poco, little by little. We pray two decades of the Joyful Mysteries, with a special focus on our relationship with God the Father who has made himself known to us, not through a visible face, but through his heart: the one who sees in secret, who hears us, delights in us, and is always with us. Today’s focus is the mysteries of the Annunciation and Visitation and we will be praying two decades of the Rosary.

In the mystery of Mary’s coronation, we dive into the depths of Mary’s role as queen and mother. Fr.
