Recording of Father Peyton reciting the rosary goes digital

Published: 2006-06-14

NORTH EASTON, Mass. (CNS) -- Holy Cross Father Patrick Peyton, often referred to as "the rosary priest," was always on the cutting edge of technology when it came to spreading the Gospel message. And so it continues nearly 14 years after his death. Family Theater Productions, founded by Father Peyton and part of Holy Cross Family Ministries in North Easton, has announced the production of a self-playing digital audio book that contains information on how to pray the mysteries of the rosary, including the luminous mysteries, which Pope John Paul II added to the traditional rosary prayers in 2002. In the audio book, titled "Pray the Rosary With Servant of God Father Patrick Peyton, CSC," the joyful, sorrowful and glorious mysteries are recited by the priest himself. Holy Cross Father William Melody, a cousin of Father Peyton, recites the luminous mysteries, also called the mysteries of light. The "Pray the Rosary" Playaway system is available from Holy Cross Family Ministries by phone at: (800) 299-7729, or online at: www.hcfmstore.org.
