Rosary

Sign of the Cross

In the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Opening Prayer

God of immeasurable and infinite goodness, we, who are sinners and humble servants are unworthy to stand and pray to you. But trusting in your unending mercy and love, joining with Mother Mary and all the saints we desire to pray the rosary interceding for the whole world meditating on the Divine Mysteries of the life of Jesus. Bless us O Lord to make this prayer with total concentration and devotion.

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 Spirit,

born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried.

He descended into Hell; the third day He rose again from the dead;

He ascended into Heaven, and sitteth 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.

1 Our Father, 3 Hail Marys (for the virtues of Faith, Hope, and Charity) & 1Glory Be..

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, 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.

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.

The Joyful Mysteries (Mondays and Saturdays)

1. The Annunciation of Our Lord

The Archangel Gabriel announced to Mary 'The Immaclate Conception' and the virgin in her most obedience and humility answered... '

Behold the handmaid of the Lord. Be it done unto me according to your word' and The Word was made flesh and dwelt among us.

Oh Mother Mary with your "yes", you opened heaven's way. Your intercession is heard in Heaven for you offered yourselves to the will of the Father and you are blessed forever.

Let's pray that we could as well say "yes" to the father in everything that he asks of us. Mother Mary help us to be humble and obedient to God's will, just like you were.

Dedication: In this decade, let's offer to the immaculate heart of mother Mary the Holy Catholic Church, Pope Francis, all the clergy, monks and missionaries for all the strength and reinforcement that they need in their everyday priesthood.

The Blessed Virgin presents the Child Jesus to Simeon in the Temple. We need to pay attention to the voice of God, discern his call, and accept the mission he gave us. After the Simeon prophecy, Mary takes into her heart the wound of sorrow, but in the silence, she accepts the will of her father.

Dedication: In this decade let's offer our kids to the divine protection of mother Mary. They are the promise, the hope, and the future.

Let us ask Mary for the gift of hope.

Let us trust in Mary, Let us call to Her, let us love Her, let us confide in Her, because She gives Her all to us. We have a Mother in Heaven who is also a Queen; thus we need to turn to Her with full faith and hopefulness. If we ask for something while praying the Holy Rosary, it will be granted to us.

The Sorrowful Mysteries (Tuesdays and Fridays)

1.The Agony in the Garden

At Gethsemane, Jesus fell on His face, and prayed: “O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt”. And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and His sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down the ground. The thought of our sins and his coming suffering causes the agonizing savior to sweat blood.

In his prayer to the Father, Jesus found strength, trust, and an angel was sent to comfort Him. So Jesus will be our comforter as he said to us: ” Why do you worry in your difficulties? Be strong in me; look to your God in your most troubled hour, and you will be triumphant.”

Dedication: In this decade, let's offer to the immaculate heart of mother Mary the Holy Catholic Church, Pope Francis, all the clergy, monks, and missionaries for all the strength and reinforcement that they need in their everyday priesthood.

2.The Scourging

Jesus is stripped and unmercifully scourged until His body turned one mass of bloody wounds.

He was oppressed and afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth. Like a lamb led to the slaughter and sheep silent before the shearer, he did not open his mouth.

Oh dear Saviour we can't fathom the pain that you have suffered and the blood that you shed for the salvation of mankind we pray for your mercy.

Dedication: In this decade let's offer mankind in its worst fight against the COVID pandemic. We regret and repent for our sins and ask forgiveness for our sins and the sins of the world. We pray thy divine blood sanctify and protect us.

Amen.

Queen of the most holy rosary, pray for us!

3.The Crowning with Thorns

Jesus' claim to kingship is ridiculed by putting a crown of thorns on His head and a reed in His hand.

Think of the indignity, outrage, pain, and humiliation that Jesus suffered. They stripped Him of every dignity, He was treated as the guilt of our worst sins. He seems to say to us: ” Why do you despair when you suffer? Is that the way you love me? Meditate about my passions and find in them great riches.” Let us ask the gift of patience to accept all humiliations, thinking of how Jesus suffered for us.

Dedication: In this decade, let's offer all who have gathered here tonight, in reverence and devotion to the immaculate heart. We are fragile, we are weary and we are in turmoil. Mother mary... embrace us, comfort us and keep us close to the heart of your infant Jesus.

Amen.

4.The Carrying of the Cross

Jesus shoulders his own cross and carries it to the place of crucifixion while Mary follows Him sorrowing.

Along the road to Calvary Jesus sees Mary, His Mother. Can we imagine the moment when Their eyes met? Oh.. how hurt must have been her Heart. Let us pray to Mary for the grace to always accept our cross.

Dedication: In this decade let's please offer today's hosting family to the immaculate heart with all their prayers and intentions. We pray they get refreshed and rejuvenated in the showers of grace and never-ending blessings.

Amen.

Queen of the most holy rosary, pray for us!

5. The Crucifixion

Jesus is nailed to the cross and he saw His mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto His mother:” Woman, behold thy son!” Then saith he to the disciple: “Behold thy mother!” And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home. Jesus dies after three hours of excruciating pain and agony witnessed by His Mother.

He asks that we accept Our Lady as our true Mother, who will ignite in us a fervent love of Her Son. Mary, we trust in You, take us and put us in the refuge of Your Immaculate Heart, heal with your humility our pride, that so often takes us far from God.

Dedication: In this decade let's please offer today's hosting family to the immaculate heart with all their prayers and intentions. We pray they get refreshed and rejuvenated in the showers of grace and never-ending blessings.
