Blessed Bartolo Longo
Blessed Bartolo Longo was born on February 10, 1841 in Latiano, Italy to a wealthy and devout Catholic family. In 1951 when his mother died he became estranged from the Catholic Church. When he went away to university to study law he fell in with Satanists eventually being ordained a Satanic priest. "He participated in séances, fortunetelling and orgies." The more he experimented in the occult the more Bartolo became depressed. "His life was marked with extreme depression, paranoia, hatred, confusion and nervousness." In his darkest moments Bartolo experienced visions of his deceased father begging him to return to God. Bartolo sought the help of Professor Vincenzo Pepe who convinced him to abandon Satanism. Professor Pepe introduced him to a Dominican priest by the name of Fr. Alberto Radente who heard Bartolo's confession and brought him back to the church. One day he had a mystical experience... having pondered his condition he felt a deep despair come over him and almost committing suicide. Bartolo at that moment remembered the words of Fr. Alberto Radente that if he sough salvation to promulgate the Rosary. A promise made by the Virgin Mary to those who recite the Rosary devoutly. On March 25, 1871, Longo became a Third Order Dominican and took the name Br. Rosario in honor of the Rosary. Bartolo married a wealthy widow named Countess Mariana di Fusco. The two founded a confraternity of the Rosary. Bartolo died on October 5, 1926 in Torre Annunziata, Italy. Pope St. John Paul II beatified him on October 26, 1980 calling him the "Apostle of the Rosary.
