“Fear the Day of Judgment: be in dread of hell. Ardently desire everlasting life with deep spiritual longing. Keep death daily before your eyes (Rule Of Benedict 4: 44-47).”

“Memento Mori” translates from the Latin to “Remember that you shall die”. It reminds you of the rite you hear when ashes are smudged in a cross upon your forehead for Ash Wednesday:  “Remember Man that thou are dust and unto dust thou shall return."  Skull rosaries date back to the late middle ages!

Prayer: Dear merciful God, thank you for loving me and showing me mercy when I did not deserve your favor. Please continue to awaken, reawaken, and constantly awaken within me a deep desire for the things above where Christ is seated with the Father. In gratitude I rejoice that the sting of death has lost its power in Christ Jesus, our Lord. Amen.

Absolutely overshot my expectations

These Rosaries are built with such quality. They feel good to hold, and they don’t cheap out on materials. Aesthetically they’re gorgeous. It’s functional art, a prayer tool and weapon that’ll be passed down. I’m glad I didn’t go the cheaper route. These are exceptional, and the ability to customize it makes it all the more special!

Legit Rugged

I’ll be receiving my sacraments of initiation this Easter Vigil (2025) and wanted to find Rosaries I can carry and use everyday. I bring these Rosaries with me every and have even PT with them and no problems. The bag is the only thing that catches dirt but my rosaries stay clean with a nice rinse. Will continue to bring them with me on my outdoor adventures and not fear them breaking.

Well Made Rosary

This is the 8th Rosary I have purchased from Rugged Rosaries. I gave it as a gift and the recipient was pleased with it. The rosary is well made, the mini skull beads in place of the Our Father beads are nicely detailed and the extras included in each order are appreciated. Will order again.

Awesome Rosary

My rosary was way more than expected, the details and they accommodated all the extras I asked for to make it extra special to me! I take it everywhere I go!

Great quality

I really enjoy the feel of the beads; I am glad to have prayer beads that I can take for a forest hike without having to worry about breaking them. I am looking forward to buying from RR again. Many blessings from Bohemia.
