During the Family Rosary Across America hosted live at the SEEK conference, Fr. Rocky welcomed a young woman wearing a veil she’d received from her aunt for Christmas. Then he asked the question that opens so many holy moments: “What’s your prayer intention?”

She didn’t offer something vague. She offered people.

With names on her lips and gratitude in her voice, she prayed for her “secular friends” to encounter Jesus: “...that they might come to experience the love and peace of Christ like I have, choose to believe in him and love him as well.” Then she added a simple, heartfelt thank-you for the friends who stayed close in her lowest moments and finished with, “I love you guys.”

Fr. Rocky immediately noticed something important: this prayer had history. “So this isn’t the first time you prayed for those friends?” he asked. When she said no, he smiled: “Because it just came right off, rapid fire.”

Then he made it practical for everyone praying the rosary. He shared how he prays for his own family by name and summed it up with a warm, unmistakably Catholic instinct: “That’s how we pray like Catholics.”

Bring the names. Keep bringing them. And trust that the Lord can use your faithfulness, one Rosary, one intention, one “rapid-fire” list at a time.
