Book Review: "How to Pray the Rosary as a Pathway to Contemplation is a very kind book. I am not just saying kind in general terms. Kind as in very accommodating to those who have a genuine desire to pray the rosary. There are many books that teach the procedure of how to say the rosary but this one teaches about the disposition or motivation. This book is very easy to read and loving. I will promote it whenever I can." – Billie Vasquez, OCDS, president, Our Lady of the Holy Rosary Carmelite Community, Portland, OR

"Kathryn Marcellino's book, How to Pray the Rosary As a Pathway to Contemplation, takes you from the basics of praying the rosary, all the way to simple and direct instruction on how to move towards the gift of contemplative prayer. In each of the twenty mysteries of the rosary, she gives the reader the related scriptures and a picture image to aid in meditation. I highly recommend this little book for both beginners in prayer and those experienced in prayer. It's a neat, short but complete handbook for praying the rosary well and more." -- Virginia Barber, OCDS Formation Director
"This rosary book contains Scripture passages and beautiful art to aid in meditation. The additional surprise is that it contains a great, concise catechesis on contemplative prayer. The book would be terrific for use in religious education and RCIA programs." – Lonnie Sorensen, OCDS.
