The RWP libretto available on Amazon
The Rosary for World Peace libretto is now available for purchase on-line through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Xlibris in both paperback and hard cover formats. The libretto includes all four acts of The Rosary for World Peace.
The Rosary, a beaded prayer meditation that originated in the ancient monk's Psalter, is the root of this new, interpretive work. A dramatic oratorio of humankind's greatest story, the birth, life, death, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ, The Rosary for World Peace catapults the medieval mystery play genre into the twenty-first century.
The epic unfolds in a series of four acts. Each act features five prominent events in the lives of Jesus Christ and His mother, Mary:
Act I: The Joyful Mysteries
Act II: The Luminous Mysteries
Act III: The Sorrowful Mysteries
Act IV: The Glorious Mysteries
Over 1800 Scripture verses set the mini-dramas and narratives. In addition, twenty representative world languages are featured throughout in prayer vignettes in this poetic communion with the people of the world.
