Sign of the Cross
Make the Sign of the Cross: In the Name of the Father of the Son and of the
Holy Spirit. Amen.
The Apostle's Creed (Original Version)
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, is seated 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.

All ForAll For the Sacred and

Mary, all in union with St. Joseph.
The First Luminous
Mystery:
Christ's Baptism in the Jordan.
The Baptism in the Jordan is first of
all a mystery of light. Here, as Christ descends into the waters, the innocent
one who became “sin” for our sake (cf. 2 Cor 5:21), the heavens open wide
and the voice of the Father declares him the beloved Son (cf. Mt 3:17 and
parallels), while the Spirit descends on him to invest him with the mission
which he is to carry out.
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 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. (Recite 10
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. Amen
O My JesusO MY JESUS, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of Hell.
Lead all souls to Heaven, especially those who are in most need of Thy mercy.
All ForAll For the Sacred and
Eucharistic Heart of Jesus, all through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of
Mary, all in union with St. Joseph.
The Second Luminous
Mystery:
Christ's self-manifestation
at the wedding of Cana.
Another mystery of light is the first of
the signs, given at Cana (cf. Jn 2:1- 12), when Christ changes water into wine
and opens the hearts of the disciples to faith, thanks to the intervention of
Mary, the first among believers.
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 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. (Recite 10
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. Amen
O My JesusO MY JESUS, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of Hell.
Lead all souls to Heaven, especially those who are in most need of Thy mercy.
All ForAll For the Sacred and
Eucharistic Heart of Jesus, all through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of
Mary, all in union with St. Joseph. The
Third Luminous
Mystery:
Christ's proclamation of the Kingdom of God, with
his call to conversion.
Another mystery of light is the
preaching by which Jesus proclaims the coming of the Kingdom of God, calls to
conversion (cf. Mk 1:15) and forgives the sins of all who draw near to him in
humble trust (cf. Mk 2:3-13; Lk 7:47- 48): the inauguration of that ministry of
mercy which he continues to exercise until the end of the world, particularly
through the Sacrament of Reconciliation which he has entrusted to his Church
(cf. Jn 20:22-23).
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 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. (Recite 10
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. Amen
O My JesusO MY JESUS, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of Hell.
Lead all souls to Heaven, especially those who are in most need of Thy mercy.
All ForAll For the Sacred and
Eucharistic Heart of Jesus, all through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of
Mary, all in union with St. Joseph. The
Fourth Luminous
Mystery:
The
Transfiguration of Christ.
The mystery of light par excellence
is the Transfiguration, traditionally believed to have taken place on Mount
Tabor. The glory of the Godhead shines forth from the face of Christ as the
Father commands the astonished Apostles to “listen to him” (cf. Lk 9:35 and
parallels) and to prepare to experience with him the agony of the Passion, so as
to come with him to the joy of the Resurrection and a life transfigured by the
Holy Spirit.
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 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. (Recite 10
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. Amen
O My JesusO MY JESUS, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of Hell.
Lead all souls to Heaven, especially those who are in most need of Thy mercy.
All ForAll For the Sacred and
Eucharistic Heart of Jesus, all through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of
Mary, all in union with St. Joseph.
The Fifth Luminous
Mystery:
Christ's
institution of the Eucharist, as the sacramental expression of the Paschal
Mystery.
A final mystery of light is the institution of
the Eucharist, in which Christ offers his body and blood as food under the signs
of bread and wine, and testifies “to the end” his love for humanity (Jn
13:1), for whose salvation he will offer himself in sacrifice.
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 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. (Recite 10
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. Amen
O My JesusO MY JESUS, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of Hell.
Lead all souls to Heaven, especially those who are in most need of Thy mercy.
All ForAll For the Sacred and
Eucharistic Heart of Jesus, all through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of
Mary, all in union with St. Joseph.
St. Joseph Prayer after the Rosary Glorious
St. Joseph, spouse of the Immaculate Virgin, obtain for me and all the
members of my family and loved ones, a confident, sinless, generous, and patient
heart, and perfect resignation to the Divine Will. Be our guide, father,
and model throughout life, that we may merit a death like yours, in the arms of
Jesus and Mary. Help us, St. Joseph, in our earthly strife, to fulfill our
responsibilities and ever to lead a pure and blameless life.
Heavenly Father, please ask the Holy Spirit, Who resides in the innermost
recesses of my soul, to help me to call to mind all of my sins and faults. Help
me to detach myself from these faults and sins so that I can be a useful
instrument in the hands of the Most Holy Family, to achieve Your distinctive
plan for my life.
Let me now pause for a few moments to think of my sins, faults, and omissions.
Act of Contrition O
my God! I am heartily sorry for having offended Thee, and I detest all of
my sins, because I dread the loss of Heaven and the pains of hell, but most of
all because I have offended Thee, my God, Who art all good and deserving of all
my love. I firmly resolve with the help of Thy grace, to confess my sins,
to do penance, and to amend my life. Amen.
Let us Pray: Heavenly
Father, in the Name of Our Lord Jesus Christ, we ask You to release a Poor Soul
of one of our loved ones from Purgatory for each of us who have received Your
Son in Holy Communion this day, and we ask these souls being released to pray
continually that our families and the members and families of the Apostolate do
Your will.
Sign of the Cross
Make the Sign of the Cross: In the Name of the Father of the Son and of the
Holy Spirit. Amen.
