Sign of the Cross
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
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 rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven, and is 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.
The Baptism of Jesus
Matthew 3:13-17
Jesus is baptized by John in the Jordan River. The heavens open, the Spirit descends as a dove, and the Father's voice proclaims 'This is my beloved Son.' We contemplate our own baptism and identity as children of God.
The Wedding at Cana
John 2:1-12
At Mary's request, Jesus performs His first miracle, turning water into wine at a wedding feast. Mary tells the servants 'Do whatever He tells you.' We contemplate Mary's intercession and openness to God's transforming grace.
The Proclamation of the Kingdom
Mark 1:14-15
Jesus proclaims the Kingdom of God and calls all to conversion. He teaches in parables and calls disciples to follow Him. We contemplate repentance and trust in God's mercy.
The Transfiguration
Matthew 17:1-8
On Mount Tabor, Jesus is transfigured before Peter, James, and John. His face shines like the sun, and Moses and Elijah appear. We contemplate the glory of Christ and our call to be transformed in Him.
The Institution of the Eucharist
Matthew 26:26-28
At the Last Supper, Jesus takes bread and wine and says 'This is my Body... This is my Blood.' He institutes the Eucharist and the priesthood. We contemplate the Real Presence of Christ and the gift of the Mass.
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.
Hail Mary
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst 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.
(Said 10 times per decade)
Glory Be
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.
Fatima Prayer
O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell, lead all souls to Heaven, especially those in most need of Thy mercy. Amen.
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. Amen.
Closing Prayer
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 while meditating on 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.
