A Memento Mori Rosary is a type of rosary that serves as a reminder of the inevitability of death, encouraging reflection on mortality and the transient nature of life. “Memento Mori” is a Latin phrase that translates to “Remember your mortality.” Memento Mori Rosaries serve as a visual and tactile reminder to focus on the brevity of life, the importance of spiritual reflection, and the need to live a virtuous and meaningful existence.
The Miraculous Medal and Pardon Crucifix complete this unusual rosary. The pardon crucifix is a crucifix that incorporates promises of indulgences (remissions of temporal punishment for sins). The pardon crucifix serves as a reminder of God’s mercy and the importance of seeking forgiveness for one’s sins. (A handout is included with this rosary that explains the Pardon Crucifix, history and indulgences)
This rosary is large enough to hang on the wall for display or carry. It is larger than the standard rosary and easier for larger or arthritic hands to hold. Catholic 5 Decade – Lifetime repair warranty – and velveteen bag with handmade charm included.
