«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.

Glorious Mysteries

Let us Pray for the Souls in Purgatory.

On the third day after His death on the Cross, Jesus rose by His own power and came out of the tomb full of glory and immortality. He appeared to His Mother, Mary Magdalene, and the Apostles. “If Jesus has not risen, our faith is in vain.” By this miracle we understand, like the Apostles, that Jesus is truly the Son of God and we know that the religion He taught is truly divine. To continue His work on earth, Jesus founded His Church and promised that “the gates of hell shall never prevail against it”, just as death did not defeat Christ. Let us therefore walk with confidence on the way marked out by Jesus. Let us ask to recognize God’s action in every detail of our lives. I adore You, O Jesus coming out of the tomb, triumphant over death and hell. I praise Your Divine Mother for having received Your first visit on the glorious day of Your Resurrection. Deign, Lord, to grant me a living faith so that I may always walk without failure and without hesitation in the paths that You have traced out to lead me to God.
1 st mystery: The Resurrection of Jesus
Let us ask for the grace of a living Faith and to see the Hand of God in all things.
For forty days, Our Lord Jesus Christ con - firmed the truth of His Resurrection, laid the foundations of His Church, promised the Holy Spirit to the Apostles, and then, before His disciples gathered on the Mount of Olives, He ascended to heaven blessing them. All life must be a continuous ascent to Heaven. Every step, every gesture, every day should bring us a little closer to our goal. But we will only succeed in ascend - ing and reaching Heaven if we always, like the apostles, fix our eyes on Christ who makes us understand that only Heaven is worthy of our desires. On the condition also, that we take the means He indicates to us to attain it. Let us ask for the grace to carry out the mission for which God created us. I adore You, O Jesus, ascending into heaven to enter into possession of Your eternal glory. I praise Your divine Mother for having Her Son placed above the Angels and Saints, at the right hand of the Father. Deign, Lord, to grant me the grace to endure the pains of exile and to long for heaven, my true Fatherland.
2 nd mystery: The Ascension of Jesus in Heaven
Let us ask for the grace of detachment from earthly things and a great desire of Heaven.
On the day of Pentecost, when the Apostles were gathered in the Upper Room to pray with Mary, a rushing wind rose and the Holy Spirit descended in tongues of fire on each of the Apostles; they spoke in various tongues. Saint Peter addresses the crowd and converts a large number of Jews. There were only twelve of them, and they saved the world. Thanks to these twelve, the shadow of the Cross spreads over the whole earth. But these twelve poor sin - ners received the Holy Spirit in their souls. From being timid and cowardly, they became the fearless defenders of the Rights of God. What about us? We received the Holy Spirit at our confirmation. Why are we so cowardly in the service of God? Let us ask for fidelity to God’s inspirations. I adore You, O Jesus, pouring out Your divine Spirit upon the Apostles and the faithful gathered in the Upper Room. I praise Your divine Mother for having received on this day the fullness of the gifts of the Holy Spirit. Deign, Lord, to give me the Spirit of light to better know my duties and the Spirit of strength to fulfill them.
3 rd mystery: The Descent of the Holy Spirit upon the Blessed Virgin Mary and the Apostles
Let us ask for the Gifts and Fruits of the Holy Spirit and fidelity to His inspirations.
Retreated near the apostle Saint John, Mary dies in an ecstasy of love. Her body, the tabernacle of the Son of God, could not see the corruption of the tomb. At the moment of Her death, Mary is taken up to Heaven in body and soul in the midst of angelic concerts. From all eternity, the Blessed Virgin was chosen to be the temple of God. She opened this temple wide when She ac - cepted Her vocation and all Her life She adorned it with the most beautiful virtues. It is in Mary and through Her that God comes to man; it is in Her and through Her that we must go to God. Do we have for Mary, our good Mother, the love and vener - ation of good children? Let us ask to imitate the virtues of our good Mother. I adore You, O Jesus, going to meet Mary to introduce Her into Your Heavenly Kingdom. I congratulate Your divine Mother on Her glorious Resurrection and triumphant Assumption above the angelic choirs. May I always find a place under the mantle of Your holy Mother, O God.
4 th mystery: The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin in Heaven
Let us ask for a True Devotion to such a good Mother and the grace to imitate Her virtues.
Placed by the adorable Trinity above all the angelic choirs, Mary, beloved Daughter of the Father, beloved Mother of the Son, Spotless Spouse of the Holy Spirit, is crowned Queen of heaven and earth. This mystery represents the crowning of every Christian life. Mary was faithful to God. God gave Her the promised reward. The happiness we seek will be ours for - ever if we are also faithful. We must think about this. It is minute by minute, hour by hour that the final result is played out. Let us ask for constancy in effort and perseverance in our good resolutions. I adore You, O Jesus, crowning the virtues of Mary by making Her sit at Your right hand, on a throne of glory, in the presence of the whole heavenly court. Deign, Lord, to make me share as Your divine Mother in Your sufferings here on earth, so that one day I may share Her crown in Heaven.
5 th mystery: The Crowning of the Blessed Virgin Mary
Let us ask for the grace of perseverance in grace in order to be crowned one day in Heaven by our celestial Mother.
