This sturdy and imposing rosary was inspired by the Latin motto, “Memento Mori,” or, “Remember Thy Death.” This is particularly popular within the Knights of Columbus and also in Benedictine spirituality, which led to the incorporation of the Saint Benedict medal in the center. The cross is a unique design known as the “Pardon Crucifix,” which carries an indulgence granted by Pope Saint Pius X in 1905.
This rosary would make a stunning gift for a Knight or a Benedictine in particular, or for anyone with a particular devotion to the Holy Souls in Purgatory (the traditional devotion for the month of November, beginning with All Saints and All Souls Days).
Please inquire if you are interested in a Knights of Columbus center.
