It's First Saturday again!

Confession

Rosary

15 minute meditation on the Mysteries of the Rosary (any one, or more of them)

Mass

Communion of Reparation







Why 5 First Saturdays?

We should know the answer to that.






Where did this devotion and tradition begin?



How has this practice been conducted in the Church at large?



Whatever became of the 9 First Saturdays devotion?



How often does First Saturday occur first and First Friday occur later in one month?



When First Friday occurs first, First Saturday is always the next day, but when
First Saturday occurs first, First Friday follows after 6 days. What is the significance
of this fact?



Do you think that the overall decline (gradual or abrupt?) of these practices is any
clue to what is going on in Church history these days?
