Five years ago, Fr Justine John Dyikuk promised to always pray the 20 decades of the rosary every day for the rest of his life. This was after experiencing what the Nigerian priest described as a divine encounter that changed his life for good.Fr Justine Dyikuk at the June 1, 2024, launch of his book “Me and my Rosary” in Glasgow, Scotland.

“Three days into the novena, I heard a knock on the door. Guess who was at the rectory? The same man and his wife,” Dyikuk told ACI Africa, CNA’s news partner in Africa, in a June 24 interview.“While I was busy urging them to get up, said to me without looking up, ‘Father, I am deeply sorry for what I did to you. We could not sleep in our house yesterday. We saw a bright light and a voice told me that if I did not come to apologize to you, I would die.

The book also features testimonies of victims of Islamist attacks who said they escaped death by praying the rosary. “Are we able to identify something joyful in our lives when we meditate on the joyful mysteries?” he questioned. “And are we able to share the same joy with our brothers and sisters? When tragedy strikes, how does it impact our faith? Do we help others unite their pain with that of Jesus when we meditate on the sorrowful mysteries?”

The book also provides a relationship between the rosary prayer and Mass. In Chapters 3–6, the priest reflects on the different mysteries of the rosary, arguing that each decade of the rosary must be connected to one’s daily experiences and the experiences of those around them.
