3. The Rosary shall be a powerful armor against hell, it will destroy vice, decrease sin, and defeat heresies.
4. It will cause virtue and good works to flourish; it will obtain for souls the abundant mercy of God; it will withdraw the hearts of people from the love of the world and its vanities, and will lift them to the desire of eternal things. Oh, that souls would sanctify themselves by this means.

15. Devotion of my Rosary is a great sign of predestination.
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
Spirit, 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, and sits 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.
2. Then on the first large bead, Recite one Our Father...
OUR FATHER
Our father, who art in heaven; hallowed by 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.
3. Then on each of the three small beads, Recite a Hail Mary for an increase of Faith, Hope and Charity...
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.
4.Then on the next large bead, Recite one Glory Be ...
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.
5.Then on the medal, Reflect on FIRST Luminous Mystery and recite one Our Father ..
OUR FATHER
Our father, who art in heaven; hallowed by 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 Luminious Mysteries of Light (Recited on Thursday)
In these mysteries, apart from the miracle at Cana, the presence of
Mary remains in the background. The Gospels make only the briefest
reference to her occasional presence at one moment or other during the
preaching of Jesus (cf. Mk 3:31-5; Jn 2:12), and they give no indication
that she was present at the Last Supper and the institution of the
Eucharist. Yet the role she assumed at Cana in some way accompanies
Christ throughout his ministry. The revelation made directly by the
Father at the Baptism in the Jordan and echoed by John the Baptist is
placed upon Mary's lips at Cana, and it becomes the great maternal
counsel which Mary addresses to the Church of every age: “Do whatever he
tells you” (Jn 2:5). This counsel is a fitting introduction to the
words and signs of Christ's public ministry and it forms the Marian
foundation of all the “mysteries of light”.
Moving on from the
infancy and the hidden life in Nazareth to the public life of Jesus, our
contemplation brings us to those mysteries which may be called in a
special way “mysteries of light”. Certainly the whole mystery of Christ
is a mystery of light. He is the “light of the world” (Jn 8:12). Yet
this truth emerges in a special way during the years of his public life,
when he proclaims the Gospel of the Kingdom. In proposing to the
Christian community five significant moments – “luminous” mysteries –
during this phase of Christ's life, I think that the following can be
fittingly singled out: (1) his Baptism in the Jordan, (2) his
self-manifestation at the wedding of Cana, (3) his proclamation of the
Kingdom of God, with his call to conversion, (4) his Transfiguration,
and finally, (5) his institution of the Eucharist, as the sacramental
expression of the Paschal Mystery.
Each of these mysteries is a revelation of the Kingdom now present in the very person of Jesus.
~ FIRST LUMINIOUS MYSTERY: The First ten Hail Marys in the Luminous
Mysteries – shall be meditated on The Baptism of Jesus in the
Jordan(before starting the ten Hail Marys, announce one time: "A Prayer
about Healing, Openness to the Holy Spirit,"). (Mystery in Detail
Below):
The Baptism in the Jordan is FIRST Mystery of Light.
Here, as Christ descends into the waters, the innocent one who became
“sin” for our sake (cf. 2Cor 5:21), the heavens open wide and the voice
of the Father declares him the beloved Son (cf. Mt 3:17 and parallels),
while the Spirit descends on him to invest him with the mission which he
is to carry out.
6. Then On each of the adjacent TEN
small beads (also referred to as a decade) recite one Hail Mary per
small bead while reflecting on the FIRST Luminious mystery and on the
tenth small bead also recite the Fatima prayer:
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.
FATIMA PRAYER
"O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell, lead
all souls to Heaven, especially those who have most need of your mercy."
●▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬♥▬●▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬♥▬●▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬●
7. Then continue on each large bead between decades, recite one Glory Be
and one Our Father and Reflect on SECOND Luminous Mystery...
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.
OUR FATHER
Our father, who art in heaven; hallowed by
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.
~ SECOND
LUMINIOUS MYSTERY: The Second ten Hail Marys in the Luminous Mysteries –
shall be meditated on The Wedding at Cana (before starting the ten Hail
Marys, announce one time: "A Prayer about understanding the ability to
manifest-through Faith"). (Mystery in Detail Below):
The Second
Mystery of Light is the first of the signs, given at Wedding of Cana
(cf. Jn 2:1- 12), when Christ changes water into wine and opens the
hearts of the disciples to faith, thanks to the intervention of Mary,
the first among believers.
9. Then On each of the adjacent
TEN small beads (also referred to as a decade) recite one Hail Mary per
small bead while reflecting on the SECOND Luminious mystery and on the
tenth small bead also recite the Fatima prayer:
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.
FATIMA PRAYER
"O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell, lead
all souls to Heaven, especially those who have most need of your mercy."
●▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬♥▬●▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬♥▬●▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬●
10. Then continue on each large bead between decades, recite one Glory
Be and one Our Father and Reflect on THIRD Luminous Mystery...
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.
OUR FATHER
Our father, who art in heaven; hallowed by
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.
~ THIRD
LUMINIOUS MYSTERY: The Third ten Hail Marys in the Luminous Mysteries -
shall be meditated on Jesus' Proclamation of the Kingdom of God (before
starting the ten Hail Marys, announce one time: "A Prayer about Call to
Conversion, Trust in God"). (Mystery in Detail Below):
The
Third Mystery of Light is the preaching by which Jesus proclaims the
coming of the Kingdom of God, calls to conversion (cf. Mk 1:15) and
forgives the sins of all who draw near to him in humble trust (cf. Mk
2:3-13; Lk 7:47- 48): the inauguration of that ministry of mercy which
he continues to exercise until the end of the world, particularly
through the Sacrament of Reconciliation which he has entrusted to his
Church (cf. Jn 20:22-23).
11.Then On each of the adjacent TEN
small beads (also referred to as a decade) recite one Hail Mary per
small bead while reflecting on the THIRD Luminious mystery and on the
tenth small bead also recite the Fatima prayer:
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.
FATIMA PRAYER
"O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell, lead
all souls to Heaven, especially those who have most need of your mercy."
●▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬♥▬●▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬♥▬●▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬●
12. Then continue on each large bead between decades, recite one Glory
Be and one Our Father and Reflect on FOURTH Luminous Mystery...
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.
OUR FATHER
Our father, who art in heaven; hallowed by
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.
~ FOURTH LUMINIOUS
MYSTERY: The Fourth ten Hail Marys in the Luminous Mysteries - shall
be meditated on The Transfiguration (before starting the ten Hail
Marys, announce one time: "A Prayer about Desire for Holiness").
(Mystery in Detail Below):
The Fourth Mystery of Light par
excellence is the Transfiguration, traditionally believed to have taken
place on Mount Tabor. The glory of the Godhead shines forth from the
face of Christ as the Father commands the astonished Apostles to “listen
to him” (cf. Lk 9:35 and parallels) and to prepare to experience with
him the agony of the Passion, so as to come with him to the joy of the
Resurrection and a life transfigured by the Holy Spirit.
13. Then On each of the adjacent TEN small beads (also referred to as a
decade) recite one Hail Mary per small bead while reflecting on the
FOURTH Luminious mystery and on the tenth small bead also recite the
Fatima prayer:
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.
FATIMA PRAYER
"O
my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell, lead all
souls to Heaven, especially those who have most need of your mercy."
●▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬♥▬●▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬♥▬●▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬●
14. Then continue on each large bead between decades, recite one Glory
Be and one Our Father and Reflect on FIFTH and FINAL Luminous
Mystery...
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.
OUR FATHER
Our father, who art in heaven; hallowed by 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.
~ FIFTH LUMINIOUS MYSTERY: The Fifth ten Hail Marys in
the Luminous Mysteries - shall be meditated on The Institution of the
Eucharist(before starting the ten Hail Marys, announce one time: "A
Prayer about Adoration"). (Mystery in Detail Below):
The Fifth
Mystery of Light is the institution of the Eucharist, in which Christ
offers his body and blood as food under the signs of bread and wine, and
testifies “to the end” his love for humanity (Jn 13:1), for whose
salvation he will offer himself in sacrifice.
15. Then On each
of the adjacent TEN small beads (also referred to as a decade) recite
one Hail Mary per small bead while reflecting on the FIFITH and FINAL
Luminious mystery and on the tenth small bead also recite the Fatima
prayer:
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.
FATIMA PRAYER
"O my Jesus,
forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell, lead all souls to
Heaven, especially those who have most need of your mercy."
16. When the fifth mystery is completed, Recite HAIL HOLY QUEEN:
HAIL, HOLY QUEEN
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.
17. Conclude by reciting the MEMORARE:
THE MEMORARE
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary that never was it known that
anyone who fled to Your protection, implored Your help, or sought Your
intercession was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence, we fly to
you, O Virgin of virgins, our Mother. To You we come; before You we
stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not
our petitions, but in Your mercy, hear and answer us. Amen.
O
God, by the life, death and resurrection of Your only begotten Son, You
purchased for us the rewards of eternal life; grant, we beseech You
that while meditation on these mysteries of the Holy rosary, we may
imitate what they contain and obtain what they promise. Through the same
Christ our Lord. Amen
Let us pray. O GOD, whose only begotten
Son, by His life, death, and resurrection, has purchased for us the
rewards of eternal life, 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.
