PRAYERS OF THE ROSARY
THE SIGN OF THE CROSS
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.
THE APOSTLES CREED
I believe in God the Father Almighty, creator of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, His only son, Our Lord. He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and was born of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended to the dead. On the third day He rose again. He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again 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.
THE LORD’S PRAYER.
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.
THE HAIL MARY
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.
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 HAIL HOLY QUEEN.
HAIL HOLY QUEEN, Mother of Mercy, Hail 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 vale of tears. Turn then, O most gracious Advocate, thine eyes of mercy towards 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
THE LITANY OF OUR LADY
As you pray the litany, reflect on each of the names by which the Church calls to Our Lady. Contemplate each of the attributes prescribed to her. The litany will assist you in the discovery of how to honour Our Lady and will awaken the gift of love and pure joy within you. (FR. JOZO ZOVKO)
O Mary, Mother of grace, Mother of Mercy, defend us against the devil, receive us at the hour of our death. Your immaculate conception, purest Mother of God, announced joy to the whole world: for from you came forth the Son of Justice, Jesus our God, who in overcoming sin gave us His Blessing, and in conquering death, gave us eternal life.
