Who Can Pray the Rosary
Anyone who knows six easy

prayers can pray a Rosary; you will
also need to know twenty
Mysteries to meditate upon as you
pray. You do not have to be a
Catholic.
The Order of Prayers
The Rosary begins with the
Apostles Creed, followed by one
Our Father, three Hail Marys
(traditionally offered for an
increase in faith, hope, and charity
for those praying the Rosary), a
Glory Be, and, if desired, the
Fatima Prayers. Next come five
mysteries, each consisting of one
Our Father, ten Hail Marys, a Glory
Be, and, if desired, the Fatima
Prayers. Conclude with the Hail

Holy Queen. Please say a few extra
prayers after the Hail Holy Queen
for the Pope.
Rosary Beads
If you do not have Rosary beads, it
is perfectly okay to count with your
fingers. Counting beads frees your
mind to help you meditate.
Prayers for Praying the Rosary
THE 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 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,
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 the life
everlasting. Amen.
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.
(3) 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.
FATIMA PRAYER (OPTIONAL)

O my Jesus, forgive us of our sins.
Save us from the fires of hell. Lead
all souls into heaven, especially
those in most need of thy mercy.
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.

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!
Leader: Pray for us O Holy Mother
of God,
All: That we may be worthy of the
promises of Christ.
********************
Leader: Let us pray.

All: 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
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.
PRAYER FOR THE HOLY FATHER

(FOR PRIVATE DEVOTION)
Leader: Upon this Rock He will build
His Church...
All: ...and the jaws of death shall
not prevail against her.
Leader: O Mother of the
Redeemer...
All: ...Living Tabernacle of the
Eucharist, and Luminous Rose of
Heaven, with humble confidence
we ask you to bestow upon the
Holy Father all the graces and
blessings reserved for him by the
Holy Trinity from all eternity. Amen.

Leader: Help his friends...
All: ...convert his enemies.
Leader: Saint Joseph...
All: ...pray for us. Amen.
THE MEMORARE
Remember, O most gracious Virgin
Mary, that never was it known that
anyone who fled to thy protection,
implored thy help, or sought thine
intercession was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly
unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my
mother; to thee do I come, before
thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O

Mother of the Word Incarnate,
despise not my petitions, but in thy
mercy hear and answer me.
Amen.
PRAYER TO THE OUR LADY OF
PILAR
Hail, Mary, Mother of the Pillar, and
our most loving Mother, by your
divine Motherhood you merited to
share in your Divine Sons right of
universal kingship. We, your most
humble servants and devoted
Children, feel ourselves comforted
by the though that, as it pleased
your Son to have himself
announced by the prophets and by
the angels at Bethlehem under the

glorious title of King of Peace, so,
too, it must be pleasing to you to
hear yourself greeted and honored
by us under the title of Queen of
Peace, a title that is very dear to
your motherly heart and addressed
to you with all the fervor of our
hearts. Teach us to reproduce in
ourselves your virtues, particularly
angelic modesty, profound
humility, and ardent charity, so
that in our behavior, by our words
and example, we may imitate as
far as possible your Divine Son,
Jesus, and may make you known
and loved. Amen.
