ROSARY GUIDE

On the crucifix, make the sign of the cross and then pray the
Apostles’ 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; the third day He arose again from the dead;
He ascended into Heaven, seated 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.
On the next large bead, say the 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.

On the following three small beads, pray three Hail Marys.


Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among
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.

On the chain, pray the Glory Be.


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

On the large bead, meditate on the first mystery and pray the Our
Father.
You pray mysteries for each of the five sections (decades) of the rosary
according to the day of the week:

Mondays and Saturdays:


The Joyful Mysteries remind the faithful of Christ’s birth: The
Annunciation (Luke 1:26–38); The Visitation (Luke 1:39–56); The Nativity
(Luke 2:1–21); The Presentation (Luke 2:22–38); The Finding of the Child
Jesus in the Temple (Luke 2:41–52).

Tuesdays and Fridays:


The Sorrowful Mysteries recall Jesus’ passion and death: The Agony of
Jesus in the Garden (Matthew 26:36–56); The Scourging at the Pillar
(Matthew 27:26); The Crowning with Thorns (Matthew 27:27–31); The
Carrying of the Cross (Matthew 27:32); The Crucifixion (Matthew 27:33–56).

Wednesdays and Sundays:


The Glorious Mysteriesfocus on the resurrection of Jesus and the glories of
heaven: The Resurrection (John 20:1–29); The Ascension (Luke 24:36–53); The
Descent of the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:1–41); The Assumption of Mary, the
Mother of God, into heaven; The Coronation of Mary in heaven.

Thursdays:
Pope John Paul II added The Mysteries of Light, also known as the Luminous
Mysteries, in 2002: The Baptism in the River Jordan (Matthew 3:13–16); The
Wedding Feast at Cana (John 2:1–11); The Preaching of the coming of the
Kingdom of God (Mark 1:14–15); The Transfiguration (Matthew 17:1–8); The
Institution of the Holy Eucharist (Matthew 26).
Skip the centerpiece medallion, and on the ten beads after that,
pray a Hail Mary on each bead; on the chain, pray a Glory Be.
Although a decade is 10, these 12 prayers form a decade of the
rosary.

Many Catholics add the Fatima Prayer after the Glory Be and


before the next Our Father: O My Jesus, forgive us our sins, save
us from the fires of hell and lead all souls to heaven, especially
those in most need of Thy mercy. Amen.

Repeat Steps 5 and 6 four more times to finish the next four
decades.

the Hail Holy Queen.


At the end of your Rosary, say
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, 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 made worthy of the promises of Christ.

O God, whose only-begotten Son, by His life, death, and resurrection, has
purchased for us the rewards of eternal salvation; grant we beseech Thee,
that meditating upon 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.
