A Catholic prays the rosary at St. John the Baptist Church in New Orleans. Pope John Paul II in early November once again encouraged Catholics to pray the rosary, a meditation on the events and mysteries of Jesus and Mary. The rosary dates back to the 12th century. Beads are used to aid in counting the prayers without distraction. (CNS photo by Frank J. Methe, Clarion Herald)
