Devozioni Rosary Bracelet - Blessed Carlos Manuel Rodríguez

Born in Caguas, Puerto Rico, Carlos Manuel Rodríguez is the only blessed from Puerto Rico and the first lay blessed of the Caribbean. His struggle for the renewal of the liturgy, at that time little understood by the faithful, was one of his most important tasks, as he was one of the most influential voices in what is now known as the Second Vatican Council, for which he is considered a pre-conciliar apostle of what became the Sacrosanctum Concilium. The blessed actively insisted on modifying the liturgy to promote greater participation by the faithful and to make it better understood by them, offering it in the vernacular language. His mission focused on education and the promotion of faith through his own publications, for which he invested all his money. He did all this while battling a terrible illness that eventually turned into cancer. His phrase "We live for that Night" is the framework of his favorite time of year: the Easter Vigil.

This rosary bracelet features faceted crystals, hematites, enamel-coated metals, and the FIRST AND ONLY Italian devotional medal of Blessed Carlos Manuel Rodríguez.
