What a beautiful lady, with a heart wrenching story written in a most profound, interesting and yet holy way.
A powerful book. Immaculee's faith in the Lord and the Virgin Mary helped her through this terrible ordeal.
This was an excellent follow up book to "Left to Tell". One cannot begin to understand the horrors that the author and the others endured.
I was really looking forward to this book. I enjoy the praying Rosary and no I'm not Catholic.
Immaculee has out done herself in this new book and I am so grateful that she has taken the time to articulate her thoughts on this subject. The book is perfect for believers of any age or level of understanding.
An absolutely wonderful book. She never lets me down.
Immaculee experienced great horror in her life. She says "I am a survivor of the bloody 1994 genocide that devastated my beautiful African homeland of Rwanda" (p xi)..
Anyone who wants to meditate on the mysteries of the Rosary will benefit from the writings of this author. Clear and concise images are brought to mind when reading her meditations and they can be backed up by biblical passages which she references.
I chose five stars because the title says it all: The Rosary changed my life. Forget the pills, the counceling, the booze and the gambling.
Immaculee still amazes us with her life story. The Rosary, a very valuable prayer, is well explained and deeply felt by her.
The book was excellent, every person who want help with their spiritual life should read this bookand pray the Rosary, IT IS POWERFUL !!!!!!.
Immaculee leads us to love the rosary which is the instrument to know and love our Lord Jesus more and more. I am so thankful for her inspirations to make more fruitful my daily rosary prayer.
Occasionally a book comes along that is so moving and powerful that it stays with you long after you have put it down. This is precisely the case with The Rosary: The Prayer that Saved My Life by Imaculee Ilibagiza.
Trusting in God through Jesus and the rosary can & will bring peace and calm even to the most fearful in the most awful of conditions.
