The Rosary is the ‘weapon’ for these times. -Padre Pio

Now a time of reflection before praying the Rosary.
God, come to my assistance.
— Lord, make haste to help me.
Pope St. Peter Celestine, Pope St. Urban I, Pope, St. Ives (Ivo) pray for us!
We must endure many trials before entering God’s kingdom.
Acts 14:21
O Lord, my God, deliver me!
How gracious is the Lord, and just;
our God has compassion.
The Lord protects the simple hearts;
I was helpless so he saved me…
Turn back, my soul, to your rest
for the Lord has been good;
he has kept my soul from death,
my eyes from tears
and my feet from stumbling.
I will walk in the presence of the Lord
in the land of the living.
From Psalm 116
God of power and mercy, through your Son’s passion and resurrection you have freed us from the bonds of death and the anguish of separation from you. Be ever with us on our pilgrimage; then we shall sing rather than weep…
Keep our feet from stumbling, so that we may be able to follow you until we come to eternal rest.
Psalm prayer
I lift up my eyes to the mountains;
from where shall come my help?
My help shall come from the Lord
who made heaven and earth.
May he never allow you to stumble!
Let him sleep not, your guard.
No, he sleeps not nor slumbers,
Israel’s guard…
The Lord is your guard and your shade;
at your right side he stands.
By day the sun shall not smite you
nor the moon in the night.
The Lord will guard you from evil,
he will guard your soul.
The Lord will guard your going and coming
both now and for ever.
Psalm 121
Canticle of Mary, the Magnificat: The soul rejoices in the Lord
Luke 1:46-55
Antiphon: To those who ask him, the Father will send the Holy Spirit, alleluia.
The Holy Spirit is the Paraclete, alleluia, alleluia.
— The Holy Spirit is the Paraclete, alleluia, alleluia.
He will teach you all things,
— alleluia, alleluia.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
— The Holy Spirit is the Paraclete, alleluia, alleluia
I’m keeping this group in our Rosary prayer intentions, a symptom of a much larger spiritual problem. Read this:

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.
