The purpose of the Mission Rosary is to pray for world peace and conversion through Catholic missionary efforts around the world. Each color of the rosary represents a different part of the world, united in Christ:
Green: for the forest and grasslands of Africa.
Blue: for the ocean surrounding the Islands of the Pacific.
White: symbolizing Europe, the seat of Holy Father, Shepherd of the world.
Red: calling to mind the fire of faith that brought missionaries to the Americas.
Yellow: the morning light of the East, for Asia.
This beautifully crafted Mission Rosary features wood beads, a Blessed Mother centerpiece, traditional style crucifix and heart shaped case with image of the Blessed Mother. The value pricing allows it to be a perfect giveaway or used as part of a fundraiser in support of missionary efforts in all parts of the world.
