Welcome to - All for the love of God


My name is Patricia Van Keeken, that is where my business name comes from - PVK Devotionals.  I wouldn't really call it a business though, it is more of a calling. For years I worked under the name of Tuppence Crafts, making all sorts of craft items - quilts, cushions, baby blankets etc... but things suddenly changed, I felt in my heart Our Lady was calling me to make rosaries..it seems to be the way (God's way), that by trials, sufferings and teachings through life, that it is His way of preparing us for where He wants us....so....I have decided to bring it all to you, through this blog. If you would like to purchase any rosaries or other religious items, simply click on the picture of Our lady in the side bar.
God bless
Patricia

How to pray the Rosary


The Apostle's Creed

I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of Heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, Our Lord, Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified; died, and was buried, He descended into Hell; on the third day He arose again from the dead; He ascended into Heaven and sits at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and  life everlasting. Amen.

Our Father

Our Father, Who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy name; Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

Hail Mary

Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee, blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death, Amen.

Glory Be

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Fatima Prayer

O my Jesus, forgive us of our sins, save us from the fires of hell and lead all souls to Heaven, especially those in most need of thy Mercy.

Hail Holy Queen

Hail, holy Queen, Mother of Mercy, our life, our sweetness and our hope. To Thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve: to Thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley of tears. Turn then, O most gracious Advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us, and after this our exile, show unto us the Blessed Fruit of Thy womb, Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary!
Pray for us O Holy Mother of God,
That we may be worthy of the promises of Christ. 

Concluding prayer:-
O God whose only begotten Son by his life, death, and Resurrection has purchased for us the rewards of eternal life; grant we beseech thee, that meditating on these mysteries of the Most Holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary, we may imitate what they contain and obtain what they promise through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.
