The Living Rosary

The Glorious Mysteries

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 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 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.


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 to the Father (Prayer of Praise)
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit
As it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever.
AMEN.

Hail, Holy Queen
Hail, holy queen, mother of mercy, our life, our sweetness, and our hope.
To you we cry, poor banished children of Eve; to you we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley of tears. Turn then, O most gracious advocate, your eyes of mercy toward us, and after this our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet virgin Mary.

Pray for us, O holy Mother of God.

Response:
That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ, 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 you, 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

The Glorious Mysteries

1. The Resurrection of Our Lord
Jesus rises from the dead. Faith
He said to them, "Do not be amazed! You seek Jesus of Nazareth, the crucified. He has been raised; he is not here. Behold, the place where they laid him. But go and tell his disciples and Peter, 'He is going before you to Galilee; there you will see him, as he told you.'"

2. The Ascension of Our Lord
Jesus ascends into heaven. Hope
While they were looking intently at the sky as he was going, suddenly two men dressed in white garments stood beside them. They said, "Men of Galilee, why are you standing there looking at the sky? This Jesus who has been taken up from you into heaven will return in the same way as you have seen him going into heaven."

3. The Descent of the Holy Ghost upon the Apostles
The Holy Spirit comes to the apostles and the Blessed Mother. Wisdom, Love of God, Zeal, Fortitude. When the time for Pentecost was fulfilled, they were all in one place together. And suddenly there came from the sky a noise like a strong driving wind, and it filled the entire house in which they were. Then there appeared to them tongues as of fire, which parted and came to rest on each one of them.

4. The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary into Heaven
The Mother of Jesus is taken into heaven. Eternal Happiness, Grace of a Happy Death
As an apple tree among the trees of the woods, so is my lover among men.
I delight to rest in his shadow, and his fruit is sweet to my mouth.
He brings me into the banquet hall and his emblem over me is love.
Strengthen me with raisin cakes, refresh me with apples,
for I am faint with love. His left hand is under my head
and his right arm embraces me.

5. The Coronation of Our Lady as Queen of Heaven and Earth
Mary is crowned queen of heaven and earth. Devotion to Mary and Final Perseverance, Trust in Mary's Intercession
And Mary said,
"My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord;
my spirit rejoices in God my saviour.
For he has looked upon his handmaid's lowliness;
behold, from now on will all ages call me blessed."
