Day Four - Wednesday - Praying The Glorious Mysteries of the Rosary

Hello out there! I only have a few minutes to keep us all on track with praying
the rosary on a daily basis! Today is Wednesday, and we pray the Glorious Mysteries
of the Rosary on Wednesday. If y'all started out with my first post on praying the
rosary daily then the Glorious Mysteries will sound familiar because I posted the
information about them on Sunday. I am going to post them again today to keep
us all on schedule. Jim and I prayed the rosary this morning because I knew we
would not have time tonight. I have to teach the 4th grade CCD class tonight and
I was at the Sack Lunch Ministry earlier. I have some really good news about a
great group of people that stopped by today but I will have to tell you all about
them tomorrow!
Are y'all ready? Let's get started! (I switched it up a bit - the prayers are after

The following are the prayers of the rosary -
The 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, 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; on 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 there he will 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.
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 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 Be To The Father
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 towards 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.


Okay y'all, I've got to go now - I will post the Luminous Mysteries of the Rosary
tomorrow!


The family that prays together, stays together!
I know y'all can do it - At least pray one decade!


                                                                          Adios! Bye for now, Sharla
