Our Lady of Victory Rosary

Dedicated to Our Lady of Victory, the title given to Mary after the miraculous Battle of Lepanto in 1571. When the Christian fleet faced the Ottoman Empire, the Pope called for the recitation of the Rosary, and the seas turned in favor of the faithful. The Gunmetal beads represent the steel armor of the Holy League; the Navy Blue Cord represents the Mediterranean Sea where the battle was won; the Bronze accents and medals honor the ancient, enduring faith that prevailed. With St. Michael as the heavenly commander leading the charge, this rosary is a declaration that prayer is the ultimate weapon and that Mary leads her children to victory.
