Some 15,000 copies of “Rosarium Virginis Mariae” in English and 20,000 in Swahili have been sold.
Also popular is the booklet explaining the new luminous mysteries of the rosary; some 30,000 copies have been distributed.
Local Catholic bishops and communities thanked the Pauline Publishers for the speed with which the texts were produced.
The quick diffusion of the texts is notable considering that of the 20 countries in the world with the highest illiteracy rate, 14 are in Africa.
