    February 18, 2026, Ash Wednesday, The beginning of Lent, Holy Rosary (Glorious Mysteries)

    Friends of the Rosary, Today, February 18, is Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent, the solemn observance of the central act of human history: the redemption of the human race by our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Lent is the ancient penitential time that precedes the Holy Week and the Paschal Triduum—Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and the Easter Vigil, before the Easter season, the joy of the Resurrection with the celebration of Christ’s passing over from death to life. These forty days of penance in Lent start with the sacramental of the imposition of ashes during Mass, a sign of conversion, penance, fasting, humility, human mortality, and the need to be redeemed by the mercy of God. The ashes are made from the palms used at the previous Passion Sunday ceremonies. Today, and all Fridays during Lent, all the baptized abstain from eating meat. We also do some little fasting, eating only one full meal or two smaller meals. Lent is a time for conversion to Jesus Christ and the deepening of our friendship with him. The human challenge of continual conversion requires the disciplines of Lent: fasting, almsgiving, and intensified prayer. Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary! Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy! + Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New York Enhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

    February 17, 2026, Memorial of the Seven Holy Founders of the Servite Order, Holy Rosary (Sorrowful Mysteries)

    Friends of the Rosary, Today, the Church honors the Seven Holy Founders of the Servite Order in an Optional Memorial. There were seven noble Florentines in Italy who, in the thirteenth century (1240), banded together to found the Order of Servites of the Blessed Virgin Mary, especially dedicated to penance and the preaching of the seven sorrows of our Lady in the passion of our Savior. Our Lord Jesus warned his disciples against the leaven of the Pharisees and Herod. Christ wants all the baptized to be the transforming leaven in the secular world by carrying their holiness. The faithful have all received the universal call to holiness. It means to give rise to a new way of ordering things.  A new way born of love for God and love for neighbor. But this never happens overnight. It starts in small ways, when people begin living according to the Lord’s teachings. “And then, in God’s time, this new community begins to have a leavening effect on the wider society,” says Bishop Barron. Today is also the day before Ash Wednesday, called Mardi Gras or Fat Tuesday, and it is a traditional feast honoring the Holy Face of Jesus. Come, Holy Spirit, come! To Jesus through Mary! Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.

    February 14, 2026, Feast of St. Valentine, Holy Rosary (Joyful Mysteries)

    Friends of the Rosary, Alongside Saints Cyril (827-869) and St Methodius (826-885), we honor today St. Valentine, Bishop and Martyr of Rome (died c. 269), a blessed Catholic priest beheaded. Valentine, along with St. Marius, aided the Christian martyrs during the Claudian persecution. Claudius Caesar, the Emperor, issued a decree forbidding young men from marrying to increase the size of his army. He believed that single men made better soldiers than married men. A young priest named Valentine defied this decree and urged young lovers to come to him in secret so that he could join them in the sacrament of matrimony. Claudius arrested and brought before him, attempting to convert him to Roman paganism rather than execute him. But Valentine tried to convert Claudius to Christianity, at which point the Emperor condemned him to death. While in prison, Valentine converted his jailer, Asterius, and his blind daughter, miraculously restoring her sight. The night before his execution, the priest wrote a farewell message to the girl and signed it affectionately "From Your Valentine," a phrase that lives on even to today. After performing many miraculous cures and giving much wise counsel he was beaten and beheaded under Claudius Caesar on February 14th, 273 AD in Rome. The church in which he is buried was already the first sanctuary Roman pilgrims visited upon entering the Eternal City. Today, St. Valentine's Day is a universal symbol of friendship and affection shared each anniversary of the priest's execution. Valentine has also become the patron of engaged and affianced couples. Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!
