LIVING ROSARY Guide
INTRODUCTION
Good morning and welcome everyone to our celebration of the Living Rosary. We are
about to culminate the Moth of the Holy Rosary. October is the month when Catholics
honour Mary the mother of Jesus and our mother, in a special way. And so, we turn to
Mary today by praying the Rosary, knowing that she listens to all her children’s prayers.
When we were baptized, we became one with Jesus, Son of God and Son of Mary. With
Jesus, we look to Mary as our Mother, and God as our Father. We ask Mary to teach us
and help us by her prayers to live as God’s children.
The rosary is a powerful prayer. In Fatima, Our Lady said: pray the rosary every day for
peace in the world. In these rosary meditations, you will discover how we can pray with
and around the current situation, by using the life of Jesus and Mary. I hope these
meditations enrich your prayer life and prove fruitful for the world.
As we pray the Rosary today, we greet Mary our Mother with the words of the angel
Gabriel saying “Hail Mary…” As Mary’s sons and daughters, we ask her to pray for us
“now, and at the hour of our death,” that we might be good followers of Jesus, and share
in his gift of eternal life.
Let us begin this wonderful prayer with the sign of our faith: In the name of the Father,
and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen
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; the third day He rose
again from the dead; He ascended into Heaven, and sitted 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 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 trespasses, as we
forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
Amen.
Hail Mary full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed are 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. (3 times)
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.

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 with this confidence, I fly unto thee O Virgin of Virgins and Mother of us all. To thee do I
come. Before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful.
O Mother of the world incarnate, despise not my petitions but in thy mercy hear and answer me.
Amen.
Final Prayer: 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 Thee, 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.
