Our Christmas Card Rosary

We have now prayed our yearly "Christmas Card Rosary." We were joined by my nephew Paul this year who stopped in for a visit. Each year after Epiphany, we divide our Christmas cards into piles of 10. We then say our Rosary and reverse the Hail Marys so that the group begins the prayer and the leader (with his pile of cards) ends the prayer saying "Holy Mary Mother of God pray for ______now and at the hour of their death. "We insert the names (however they sign the card) into our prayer. It is a wonderful close to Christmas. We have looked at all of our cards again and remembered and prayed for our love ones by name. We thought of this about 15 or more years ago and have done it every year since.
