This rosary design is inspired by the Trappist Monks and Sisters that follow the teachings of St. Benedict. The Rule of St. Benedict, written in the sixth century, guides the lives of Trappists and describes the ideals and values of monastic life.
A prayer from Thomas Merton's "Thoughts in Solitude":
“My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going. I do not see the road ahead of me. I cannot know for certain where it will end. Nor do I really know myself, and the fact that I think that I am following your will does not mean that I am actually doing so.
But I believe that the desire to please you does, in fact, please you.
And I hope I have that desire in all that I am doing. I hope that I will never do anything apart from that desire. And I know that if I do this you will lead me by the right road, though I may know nothing about it.
Therefore will I trust you always, though I may seem to be lost and in the shadow of death. I will not fear, for you are ever with me, and you will never leave me to face my perils alone.”
Thank you for shopping.

My husband has habitually prayed the rosary daily for the last 28-30 years. He's owned many, many different rosaries. Wore out a few. More often, they broke. For the last decade or so he's been using rosaries made with twine or other type of rope. They last longer, and he likes the fact that the beads move in his hand along the twine... rather than stationary on a chain.
In any case, this rosary -- which I gave to him as a Valentine's Day present -- has become his go-to rosary, day-in and day-out. He absolutely loves it.
It's rugged, attractive, manly, and definitely usable. He's taken to calling it his "F-250 Turbo Diesel" rosary. I take it he also imagines this rosary has 'monster tires' too! LOL!!
Thanks for your wonderful store! Just what my husband needed!
Excelent fast shipping
Well made rosaries that will help aid in your prayer life!
This rosary was my first from Rugged Rosaries. The quality of the rosary is very good and exceeded expectations. The accessory medals that I added were also of a high quality. It arrived as scheduled and in a timely manner. The rosary will be a reminder of my ancestors who helped build the Abbey of Gethsemani in Kentucky for the Trappists. I look forward to when the 2023 Christmas rosaries become available later in the year and will be purchasing one at that time.
I’ve been needing a rosary that wouldn’t break so easily but was also nice to look at. I’ve bought a couple off of Amazon but this is by far the best one I have purchased thus far. This rosary looks and feels tough; I’m sure I’ll be able to give it to my children in the future.
This was a replacement for my last Rugged Rosary (Given to my son in Law). I was not disappointed. The quality of the Rosary and components is exceptional. Thanks Rugged Rosary
Awesome gift for my godson his first rosary ever age 7! Great product! Thanks up here from Dallas tx
I did some shopping around and could not find a rosary at such a good price with this kind of quality. Loved the simple aesthetic. Thank you!
