+JMJ+ Welcome to our Live Twitter Rosary Thread, praying to cultivate a civilization of life and love.
“The Rosary is the ‘weapon’ for these times.”
— Padre Pio
Holy Family, pray for us!
#CatholicTwitter #RosaryProject
Prayers offered in the opening & closing of our Live Rosary are optional, including the novena prayers. Use as many or as few as you like. Skip around, skip them altogether. Make it yours.
The Rosary Thread links are archived on the blog at
catholicheartandmind.com/twitter-devoti…
And there’s a Rosary you can pray on the blog, too.

And now a time of reflection in preparation for praying the Rosary.
In the Name of the Father,
and of the Son,
and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Holy Family, pray for us!
For the peace of Jerusalem pray:
“Peace be to your homes!
May peace reign in your walls,
in your palaces, peace!”
For love of my brethren and friends
I say: “Peace upon you!”
For love of the house of the Lord
I will ask for your good.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
— as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.
Ant. After three days, Jesus was found in the temple, seated in the midst of the doctors, listening to them and asking them questions.
Ant. 2 Jesus returned with Mary and Joseph to Nazareth; there he lived and was obedient to them.
Truly sons are a gift from the Lord, a blessing, the fruit of the womb.
Indeed the sons of youth
are like arrows in the hand of a warrior.
O the happiness of the man
who has filled his quiver with these arrows!
He will have no cause for shame when he disputes with his foes in the gateways.
Ant. 3 Jesus grew in wisdom with the years and was pleasing to God and men.
Christ, by the mystery of your subjection to Mary and Joseph,
— teach all people reverence and obedience to lawful authority.
Lord, you are the model and Savior of all.
You loved your parents and were loved by them,
— establish our families in mutual love and peace.
Lord, you are the model and Savior of all.
You loved your parents and were loved by them,
— establish our families in mutual love and peace.
Lord, you are the model and Savior of all.
Christ, after three days your anxious parents found you in your Father’s house,
— teach all to seek first the kingdom of God.
Lord, you are the model and Savior of all.
Christ, you have made Mary and Joseph sharers in heavenly glory,
— admit the dead into the family of the blessed.
Lord, you are the model and Savior of all.
Some intentions follow. Feel free to add your own to the thread, too.
