«In the end, My Immaculate Heart will triumph!»
Prayers before the Rosary We start by making piously the Sign of the Cross , which is the Sign of the Christian: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, and of the Mother of God. Amen.
Offering of the Rosary I unite myself to all the Saints and holy Angels who are in heaven, to all the right - eous who are on earth, to all the faithful souls who are in this home. I unite myself to You, my Jesus, to praise Your holy Mother with dignity and to praise You in and through Her. I renounce all the distractions that will come to me during this Rosary that I want to say with modesty, attention and devotion, as if it were the last of my life. Amen. We offer You, Lord Jesus, this Creed to honor all the Mysteries of our Faith: this Our Father and the three Hail Marys, to honor the unity of Your Essence, the Trinity of Your Persons. We ask You for a living faith, a firm hope, and an ardent charity. Amen
The Symbol of the Apostles 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, suf - fered 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 Ghost, the Holy Church of Jesus Christ, the Communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen. 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 tres - passes as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen. Three Hail Marys Hail, Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with Thee; blessed art Thou among women, and blessed is Thy Son, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God and our Mother, pray for us, sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost, and to the Mother of God. As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

The Archangel Gabriel announces to Mary that She will become the Mother of God through the operation of the Holy Spirit. The humble Virgin accepts, and the Saviour of men is incarnated in Her chaste womb. God expected from the Virgin Mary a free consent. At His request, Mary, al - ways perfectly conformed to the Will of God, answers: “Let it be done to Me ac - cording to your word!” God also leaves us free to obey Him. He does not for the human will. He wants to be served out of love. How do we use our freedom? Do we use it for our own good or for our own misfortune? Let us ask for humble submission to God’s will. I adore You, O eternal Word incarnate in the womb of Mary. I prostrate myself at Your feet with the Archangel Gabriel, O Virgin of Virgins, to honour Your august title of Mother of God. I beg You to unite Your prayers to those of Saint Joseph, Your chaste Spouse, to obtain for my greater good to always subject my will to the Will of God.
1 st mystery: The Annunciation and the Incarnation of the Word
Let us ask for the grace of a profound humility, source and root of all virtues.
The Virgin Mary visits Her cousin Elizabeth, who will soon give birth to John the Baptist. At Mary’s voice, the child and his mother are sanctified. Praised by Elizabeth, Mary returns glory to the Most High with Her sub - lime canticle: the Magnificat. All divine masterpieces are mysteries of humility. Mary replies to Her cousin that the honour bestowed on Her is wholly from God, and that She has no merit for it. Mary was chosen to be the Mother of God because of Her profound humility. Do we always understand that it is only by lowering ourselves in the most sincere humility that we grow in the eyes of God? Let us ask for humility, the source and root of all virtues. I adore You, O Jesus living in Mary and visiting John the Baptist to sanctify him. I pros - trate myself at Your feet, like Saint Elizabeth, O admirable Mother, to proclaim that You are blessed among all women; and I beg You to unite Your prayers to those of Saint Joseph, Your faithful companion, in order to obtain for me authentic Christian humility.
2 nd mystery: The Visitation of Mary to Her Cousin Elizabeth
Let us ask for the grace of charity towards our neighbor.
Jesus, Son of God, is born in a stable! Mary wraps Him in swaddling clothes, lays Him in the manger between two animals. Shepherds from Bethlehem, then Magi from the East, come to adore their Saviour. Jesus comes to save men. He must be born in a stable because there is no room in the houses of men. He wants to be born in our hearts to save us. Do we always give to God the place He should have in our lives? Let us ask to love God above all things, and the removal of everything that separates us from Him. I adore You, O Jesus, born for us in the stable and lying in a manger. I bow down at Your feet, O Mary, with the shepherds and the Magi, to thank You for having given us Jesus. I beg You to unite Your prayers to those of Saint Joseph, Your admirable protector, to ob - tain for me the grace to accept God in my life and to open my heart wide to His Love.
3 rd mystery: The Birth of Jesus in the stable of Bethlehem
Let us ask for the grace of detachment of all passing and material things.
To obey the Law of Moses, Mary and Joseph take Jesus to the temple in Jerusalem and present Him to the Lord. The old man Simeon receives the Divine Child in his arms and celebrates His future glory. He tells Mary that She will suffer greatly: “A sword will pierce Your Heart…” The Virgin Mary, Immaculate in Her conception, was not obliged to come to the temple “to be purified”. She went there, however, to lovingly obey God’s Law, happy to find in this gesture an opportunity for humility. Let us ask for perfect obedience to God, the supreme proof of the love we have for Him. I adore You, O Jesus, presented to the Temple by Mary Your Mother. I prostrate myself at Your feet, O holy Mother of my God, to honor and bless You as the old Simeon did. I beg You to unite Your prayers to those of Saint Joseph, Your angelic guardian, to obtain for me the grace to entrust with the greatest confidence all that I love to the protection of God.
4 th mystery: The Presentation of Jesus in the Temple
Let us ask for the grace of obedience to every Will of God.
Jesus, twelve years old, having accom - panied His parents to Jerusalem, re - mained in the temple without their knowledge. After three days of anguish, Mary and Joseph find Him among the Doctors of the Law, who are delighted with His wisdom. Mary is the Mother of sinners. On this painful occasion, She suffers the an - guish, loneliness, and emptiness of the guilty. The sinner loses God. Without God, he has nothing left. Do we under - stand that mortal sin is the greatest misfortune of our souls? Let us ask for the grace of sincere repentance for all sinners, our brothers and sisters. I adore You, O Jesus, found in the Temple by Your divine Mother after three days of ab - sence. I prostrate myself at Your feet, O Mary, refuge of sinners, to ask You forgiveness for having very often forsaken Your service. I beg You to unite Your prayers to those of Saint Joseph, Your dear Comforter, to obtain for me the grace of seeking God alone and of never abandoning Him.
5 th mystery: The Loss and Recovery of Jesus in the Temple
Let us ask for the grace of searching to please God in all our actions.
