How to Pray the Rosary

      1. While holding the Crucifix, make the Sign of the Cross and then say The Apostles’ Creed.

      2. On the first bead after the Crucifix, say The Lord’s Prayer.

      3. On each of the next three beads, say the Hail Mary.

      4. After the three Hail Mary’s, say the Glory Be.

      5. On the bead after the three Hail Mary beads, announce the first Mystery and say The Lord’s Prayer.

      6. On each of the next ten beads, say the Hail Mary.

      7. At the conclusion of the ten Hail Mary’s, say the Glory Be, the Fatima Prayer, and HLI’s Jesus Prayer.

      8. Begin the next bead with the second Mystery, The Lord’s Prayer, followed by the Hail Mary’s and so on.

      9. Repeat this pattern for all five Mysteries.

      10. When the last Mystery is finished, complete the Holy Rosary with the Hail Holy Queen and the Sign of the Cross.
