Today, Oct. 11, is the Feast Day of St. Pope John XXIII. Angelo Giuseppe Roncalli was born in the village of Sotto il Monte in the province of Bergamo in Italy in 1881. At the age of 11, Angelo entered the Diocesan Seminary and then completed his studies at the Pontifical Roman Seminary. In 1904 he was ordained a Priest and became Secretary to the Bishop of Bergamo. In 1921, he entered the service of the Apostolic See as President of the Central Council for Italy of the Pontifical Society for the Propagation of the Faith; in 1925 he became Apostolic Visitor and then Apostolic Delegate to Bulgaria and, in 1935, to Turkey and Greece; in 1944 he was named Apostolic Nuncio to France. In 1953 he was created Cardinal and made Patriarch of Venice. In 1958, he was elected Supreme Pontiff. During his pontificate he convened the Roman Synod, established the Commission for the Revision of the Code of Canon Law and summoned the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council. St. Pope John XXIII died in Rome on the evening of June 3, 1963.

Today, Oct. 7, is the Feast Day of the Holy Rosary. The development of the Rosary has a long history. First, a practice developed of praying 150 Our Fathers in imitation of the 150 Psalms. Then there was a parallel practice of praying the Hail Mary 150 times. Soon a mystery of Jesus' life was attached to each Hail Mary. Though Mary's giving the Rosary to St. Dominic is recognized as a legend, the development of this prayer form owes much to the followers of St. Dominic. One of them, Alan de la Roche, was known as “the Apostle of the Rosary.” He founded the first Confraternity of the Rosary in the 15th Century. In the 16th Century the Rosary was developed to its present form—with the 15 Mysteries (joyful, sorrowful and glorious). In 2002, St. Pope John Paul II added the Mysteries of Light (the Luminous Mysteries) to this devotion.
