Exorcist Diary #161: The Rosary as an Exorcist's Weapon
Msgr. Stephen Rossetti
Excerpt
Pope Pius XI wrote, "The Rosary is a powerful weapon to put the demons to flight." Padre Pio said, "The Rosary is the weapon for these times." In our exorcism sessions, as the priest prays the solemn rite, we often have the laity praying the Rosary. Fr. Gabriel Amorth, former exorcist of Rome, recalled an encounter with Satan. The Evil One, being forced to tell the truth, said, "Every Hail Mary of the Rosary is a blow to the head for me; if Christians knew the power of the Rosary, it would be the end of me!"
