Background and the Fellowship Of The Rosary
Salvation
The Catholic Church teaches us that we are saved through our faith and good works, because we love Jesus. Jesus himself showed His love for us through His own sacrifice of death, and because of his resurrection we too may have everlasting life. If we love Jesus, we too must make sacrifices by our faith and good works, for this is to prove our love, just as Jesus proved his love for us. Through Jesus' sacrifice we are redeemed from the "original sin", but when we sin, we are turning away from God. Even though God's love is unconditional, if we do not accept it by continuing to sin, how can we receive his love.
Like God's love, it is the same with His salvation, we may accept Jesus is our Savior, but if we decide to cut Jesus' safety rope by sinning, we cannot expect to be saved. We are "saved" because we have accepted God's grace but we must stay in a state of grace, for no one can be saved if they do not wish to be saved by continually sinning. It is not that Jesus does not have the power to save us, but that Jesus has given us freedom to choose. He will not be forced to save us, we must want to be save and to prove it. Furthermore accepting salvation does not mean all our previous and future sins automatically disappears; it means we need to turn back to Jesus and make our way to him through our faith and good works.
Since we have been redeemed and made worthy again as sons and daughters of God, and if we remain in the state of grace until our end in this life, we are saved; however we still need to pay for our own sins, in this life or the next.
Purgatory
Purgatory exist because of Jesus' loves us, He sacrifices Himself for us that we may have salvation.
“All who die in God's grace and friendship, but still imperfectly purified, are indeed assured of their eternal salvation; but after death they undergo purification, so as to achieve the holiness necessary to enter the joy of heaven” (Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1030).
For those who remain in God's grace, purification is required by pretty much all of us. So how bad is purgatory?
"This fire of Purgatory will be more severe than any pain that can be felt, seen or conceived in this world." - St. Augustine
“If only you knew with what great longing these holy souls yearn for relief from their suffering. Ingratitude has never entered Heaven.” - St. Margaret Mary
"I saw the torments of hell and those of purgatory; no words can describe them. Had poor mortals the faintest idea of them, they would suffer a thousand deaths rather than undergo the least of their torments during a single day." - St. Catherine of Siena
We can pray for our souls and others?
"We must say many prayers for the souls of the faithful departed, for one must be so pure to enter heaven." - St. John Vianney
We who are in this life, have the opportunity to purify ourselves now, as best as we can to minimize our visit to purgatory. If we care for own souls, we must have a plan for our faith and good works; not only that, but also a back-up plan in place. That back-up plan is the Fellowship Of The Rosary.
Fellowship Of The Rosary
As Catholics, we all know that praying, especially with the rosary, can help save us and minimize our visit in purgatory.
“He who saves a soul saves his own and satisfies for a multitude of sins.” - St. James the Apostle
The back-up plan: this back-up is for any Catholic that joins the Fellowship Of The Rosary will pray primary for our members' souls in this life and in purgatory. The benefits of the fellowship is that when members pass from this life and visit purgatory, our members in this life will always continue to pray for its members in purgatory. Once these members enter heaven they too will continue to pray for members here and in purgatory. This is called the fellowship "push and tug" effect.
Souls who are in purgatory and not yet members but wish to accept our prayers; accept so by promising to becoming members for the fellowship once they enter Heaven.

In The End
When it is our time to leave this life, there is only one last request we sincerely ask...

Our Mission
- We ask the Immaculate Conception, our Blessed Virgin Mary, to pray for us; that when we leave this life, we remain in God's grace.
- We pray for souls, especially for members of the Fellowship Of The Rosary; For "ingratitude has never entered Heaven".
- As warriors of the Immaculate Conception, we pray and evangelize the rosary; For anyone who holds the hand of the Immaculate Conception, will follow Our Lady to Christ in Heaven.
In The End
