1. "The Blessed Virgin has urged us all to pray the Rosary daily. Our heavenly Mother knows what is best for us and always has our best interests at heart. As we are warned in Revelation (12:17): "Then the dragon became angry with the woman and went off to wage war against the rest of her offspring, those who keep God's commandments and bear witness to Jesus." Don't neglect the weapon - the Rosary - that your loving Mother has recommended to you during this most difficult age!"

5. By praying the Rosary daily, you may acquire many indulgences for yourself and for others - "It remains to be added that great value and utility accrue to the Rosary from the abundance of privileges and favors which adorn it, and more particularly from the rich treasures of indulgences attached to it. It is evident how greatly to the advantage of all who are solicitous for their eternal salvation is the obtaining of these benefits." --- Pope Leo XIII, ("Diuturni Temporis", 1898 A.D.)

5. Praying the Rosary assists the suffering souls in Purgatory - "Now, one of the easiest, yet one of the most powerful, means to procure relief for the souls in Purgatory is to say the beads for them with fervor... Next to Mass, no more efficacious offering can be made to God then this for the relief of the souls in Purgatory." ---Muller

8. Miracles may result - "Number those, if you can, who, through the devotion of the Rosary, have recovered from sickness; how many captives have been set at liberty; how many have been delivered by Mary who were in danger of perishing by fire, in danger of shipwreck, in danger of war and pestilence. Go to the sanctuaries of Our Blessed Lady, and see there the many votive offerings, ornaments of gold and silver and precious stones, in commemoration of miraculous cures or other extraordinary favors obtained though the devotion of the Rosary; for in these sanctuaries of the Blessed Virgin the blind are restored to sight, the lame walk, the demons are expelled from the bodies of men. These are authentic facts, attested not only by persons of note who have heard them from others, but by thousands of eyewitnesses whose sincerity we cannot doubt; facts so numerous that, if they were all written, it would take years to read them. What favor and blessing is there that cannot be obtained by the devotion of the Rosary?" (Muller)
9. Praying the Rosary strengthens and maintains one's faith - "It is a well-known fact that wherever the Devotion of the Rosary is practiced, there faith is warm and active." (Muller)

And both of these, the spirit of prayer and the practice of Christian life, are best attained through the devotion of the Rosary of Mary." (Pope Leo XIII, "Magnae Dei Matris", 1892 A.D.)
11. Praying the Rosary binds you with fellow Catholics throughout the world, as well as providing a link between yourself and your ancestors who have passed on.
12. The Rosary is a scourge to the devil, your wicked enemy who wants to see you in hell and does all he can to accomplish your ruin - "Next to the holy sacrifice of the Mass, there is, indeed, nothing more terrifying to [the devil], nor does he bear a more implacable hatred to anything than to the devotion of the Rosary." (Muller)
13. The Rosary is very powerful - "The rosary is the book of the blind, where souls see and there enact the greatest drama of love the world has ever known; it is the book of the simple, which initiates them into mysteries and knowledge more satisfying than the education of other men; it is the book of the aged, whose eyes close upon the shadow of this world, and open on the substance of the next. The power of the rosary is beyond description." (Archbishop Fulton Sheen)
14. The Rosary may bring you countless rewards. The long, proven history of the Rosary is full of good fruits. - "The well-known origin of the Rosary, illustrated in celebrated monuments of which we have made frequent mention, bears witness to its remarkable efficacy. For, in the days when the Albigensian sect, posing as the champion of pure faith and morals, but in reality introducing the worst kind of anarchy and corruption, brought many a nation to its utter ruin, the Church fought against it and the other infamous factions associated with it, not with troops and arms, but chiefly with the power of the most holy Rosary, the devotion which the Mother of God taught to our Father Dominic in order that he might propagate it. By this means the Church triumphed magnificently over every obstacle and provided for the salvation of her children not only in that trial but in others like it afterward, always with the same glorious success." (Pope Leo XIII, "Magnae Dei Matris", 1892 A.D.)
15. If you don't say the Rosary you will be depriving yourself of a great aid to salvation. - "Impelled, therefore, by a constant desire that Christians should ever be convinced of the efficacy and dignity of the Rosary of Our Lady, We first of all pointed out that the origin of this form of prayer is divine rather than human, showing it to be an admirable garland woven from the Angelic Salutation, together with the Lord's Prayer, joined to meditation, and that this form of prayer was most powerful and particularly efficacious for attaining eternal life." (Pope Leo XIII, "Diuturni Temporis", 1898 A.D.)
16. The Rosary may even cause your soul to be saved - "...for you ought to know that the salvation of my soul depends on saying the Rosary." (St. Alphonsus, Doctor of the Church)
