Now a time of reflection before praying the Rosary.
God, come to my assistance.
— Lord, make haste to help me.
Glory be to the Father & to the Son and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end.
He is risen, Alleluia!
Christ’s reign will last until all His enemies are made subject to Him.
—1 Cor 15:25
Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to see the Lord’s tomb, alleluia.
—Antiphon
A psalm for David. The Lord said to my Lord: Sit thou at my right hand: Until I make thy enemies thy footstool.
The Lord will send forth the sceptre of thy power out of Sion: rule thou in the midst of thy enemies.
With thee is the principality in the day of thy strength: in the brightness of the saints: from the womb before the day star I begot thee.
The Lord hath sworn, and he will not repent: Thou art a priest for ever according to the order of Melchisedech.
The Lord at thy right hand hath broken kings in the day of his wrath.
He shall drink of the torrent in the way: therefore shall he lift up the head.
Psalm 110: 1-5, 7
Jesus said: Do not be afraid. Go and tell My brothers to set out for Galilee; there they will see Me, alleluia.

Let us rejoice, sing praise, and give Him glory.

and His bride is prepared to welcome him.

Psalm-prayer
Father, creator of unfailing light, give that same light to those who call to You. May our lips praise You; our lives proclaim Your goodness; our work give You honor, and our voices celebrate You for ever.
Intentions (add your own if you like)
That all who have been received into Holy Church, and all priests, bishops, and cardinals, too, may serve the Lord and the faithful to the Glory of the Lord.
That all catechists may lead those for whom they are responsible into true formation in the new life in the Spirit as true disciples of Christ.
That all the faithful may be filled with the peace and joy that comes only from serving the Lord and being united with Him, and practicing that charity which alone comes from God and leads to His Mercy.
Thanks be to God for all who see our prayer requests and pray for them. May the Lord bless you for your charity and compassion and faithfulness.
God, come to my assistance.
— Lord, make haste to help me.
Glory be to the Father & to the Son and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end.
He is risen, Alleluia!

Queen of the Most Holy Rosary, you have deigned to come to Fatima to reveal to the three shepherd children there the treasures of grace hidden…
(There’s a place in this prayer for your personal prayer intention.)
(For those who don’t believe, we pray…)
I believe in God,
the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
And in Jesus Christ,
His only Son, our Lord…-
For the Holy 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…
For an increase of Faith, Hope, & Charity in our souls & our world
Hail Mary, full of grace.
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women
& blessed is the fruit of thy womb,
Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
Pray for us now
& at the hour of our death.
(Glory be, here and at the end of each decade.)
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.
