Sub Tuum Praesidium

We fly to thy patronage, O holy Mother of God; Despise not our petitions in our necessities, but deliver us always from all dangers, O glorious and blessed Virgin. Amen.

Act of Consecration

My Queen and my Mother, I surrender wholly unto thee; and in token of my devotion, I dedicate unto thee this day mine eyes, mine ears, my mouth, my heart, and all my being, without reservation. Wherefore, good Mother, since I am thine, keep me, guard me, as thine own possession. Amen.

Lay evangelist Gabriel Castillo is known for his YouTube channel, Gabe After Hours, and his great devotion to Our Lady.

Recently, he released a book called "The Power of the Rosary," in which he explains the history of this devotion, its benefits, and offers suggestions and ideas to those who want to incorporate this practice in their daily lives.

Speaking to ChurchPOP at the SEEK Conference 2026 in Fort Worth, Texas, Castillo encouraged people to pray the Rosary because "it's one of the greatest changes" one can make to improve their lives, especially those looking for a "spiritual breakthrough".

He also mentioned that, according to many saints, doctors of the Church, and popes, the Rosary is the most important prayer after the Holy Mass.

"When prayed properly," Castillo explains, "the Rosary is the greatest prayer for disposing your soul to receive more graces in the sacraments, it's the greatest prayer for discerning God's holy will and then having the strength and the courage to do it, and the greatest prayer for overcoming vice."
