Rosary around America

      We need to pray for our nation.
     In the illustration of the Rosary around America, the five decades of Hail Mary beads, represent the 50 United States. The art is also Americanized by the Rosary's shape and by a portion of the flag.
     If one wishes to spiritualize the flag, the blue field may stand for the color of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and its stars may suggest heaven, of which she is the Queen.   The red and white stripes may stand for the colors of Divine Mercy, which our country is very much in need of, considering the evil of abortion and things akin to it. This slaughter of the innocents places us in danger of chastisement, if it isn't happening already through the economy and the weather.
     A portion of the stripes ― of which there are13 ― may signify a response to the message of Fatima, when Mary appeared on the13th of the month from May to October in 1917, excepting August.

                                                                       ― John Riedell
