So there's one church for VIPs and another for rank-and-file members? Just like every other religion, organization, club and etc. Since there is nothing stopping them from excommunicating her except the will to do so, that tells me they don't want to, right?

Of any person I know of who desperately NEEDS a Rosary, it’s Nancy Pelosi.

Many parables about going after lost sheep in the Bible....not slaughtering them because they are lost.

I’m sure she’ll pray a rosary every day. /s

Obama probably sent one of his drunken Secret Service guys down to the Vatican gift shop to buy those rosary beads.

He probably thought it would be a hoot to see her gush over the gift.

I thought that gifts to the President from another head of State were gifts to the nation and not his personal property to give away.

If the Holy Father had intended to give Pelosi rosary beads he would have done so when she had an audience with him during her last visit.

I would not be surprised if he told her she should NOT receive communion.

The *itch should’ve been given an excommunication for her support of abortion. JMHO

Politically he just gave away a gift from the Pope which is a slap in the face to the Pope and he did not even wait long to do it.

Very interesting political move but it will never get discussed in the media.

She’s already been excommunicated she’s done it to herself.

When she receives the Eucharist she is consuming her own DEATH at this point.

Would we rather see her publicly humiliated via a public excommunication? Probably many of us would. I know I’m tired of this scandal and believe me when she dies and when her bishop(s) die they will have a LOT to answer for of they don’t confess this sin. But this is just how it is now. There’s nothing to do.

Is this “satisfying”? What does really satisfy though? As I’ve said previously, only CHRIST satisfies, so it’s pretty darn foolish to hinge our measure of satisfaction on whether or not some obstinate sinner is publicly excommunicated.

For a Catholic, this should be enough. We should not let this scandal steal our joy in Christ. For the rest, pray that her bishop does the right thing or she is converted.

Other than that, there is nothing to be said. Or done. Lest we give the devil the tempestuous misgivings of our unbridled emotions.

15 promises their Lady (Mary) gave for praying the Rosary- taken from the How to Pray the Rosary instruction booklet...

Whoever shall faithfully SERVE ME (MARY) by the recitation of the Rosary, shall receive signal graces.

I promise MY ( MARY) special protection and the greatest graces to all who shall recite the Rosary.
The Rosary shall be a powerful armor against hell; it will destroy vice, decrease sin, and defeat heresies.

It will cause virtue and good works to flourish; it will obtain for souls the abundant mercy of God; it will withdraw the hearts of men from the love of the world and its vanities, and will lift them to the desire of eternal things. Oh, those souls would sanctify themselves by this means.

The soul which recommends itself to ME (MARY) by the recitation of the Rosary, shall not perish.

Whoever shall recite the Rosary devoutly, applying himself to the consideration of its sacred mysteries, shall never be conquered by misfortune. God will not chastise him in His justice, he shall not perish by an unprovided death; if he be just he shall remain in the grace of God, and become worthy of eternal life.

Whoever shall have a true devotion for the Rosary shall not die without the Sacraments of the Church.

Those who are faithful in reciting the Rosary shall have during their life and at their death the light of God and the plenitude of His graces; at the moment of death they shall participate in the merits of the saints in paradise.
I (MARY) shall deliver from purgatory, those who have been devoted to the Rosary.

The faithful children of the Rosary shall merit a high degree of glory in Heaven.

You shall obtain all you ask of ME ( MARY) by the recitation of the Rosary.

All those who propagate the holy Rosary shall be aided by ME ( MARY) in their necessities.

I ( MARY) have obtained from My Divine Son ( some Greco Roman diety with the similaritynof Tammuz) that all the advocates of the Rosary shall have for intercessors the entire celestial court during their life and at the hour of death.

All who recite the Rosary are MY ( MARY) sons, and brothers of My only Son Jesus Christ. ( greco roman substitute for the Lion of Judah)

Devotion to MY (MARY) Rosary is a great sign of predestination.

Lots of I, me, my from Mary...

I can picture pelosi, biden, cuomo promising some of these in a campaign speech to get votes.. just substitute my rosary for ‘government’ or ‘democrat party’

I hope she won’t have a minute of sleep as long as they are in her possession!
