St Joseph Rosary

JOY SORROW GLORY

You may pray the St Joseph Rosary using the usual Catholic Rosary (consisting of 59 beads and Crucifix.)
Please note, there is no Papal Indulgence attached to the praying of the St Joseph Rosary,
although there is a plenary indulgence for the Pope Leo XIII prayer at the end.

1) SIGN OF THE CROSS, THE APOSTLES' CREED

2) Pray the OUR FATHER

3) Pray on the next 3 beads:

O My God: I believe, I adore, I hope and I love You. I ask pardon of You for those who do not believe, do not adore, do not hope, and who do not love You.

5) Pray the FATIMA PRAYER

O My Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of Hell and lead all souls to Heaven - especially those in most need of Thy mercy.

6) Announce and read the reflection for the Mystery, pray the OUR FATHER

7) Pray Ten HAIL JOSEPH's

Hail Joseph, Son of David, God is with you! Blessed are you amongst men and Blessed is Our Lord Jesus Christ! Holy Joseph, Guardian of the Redeemer, pray for us and be with us now, and as we sigh our last breath. Amen.

7) Recite the GLORY BE and the FATIMA PRAYER

8) After the 5 decades, pray 3 HAIL MARY's and the HAIL HOLY QUEEN

9) Pray TO THEE O BLESSED JOSEPH (indulgenced prayer of Pope Leo XIII)

To thee, O blessed Joseph, do we come in our tribulation, and having implored the help of thy most holy Spouse, we confidently invoke thy patronage also. Through that charity which bound thee to the Immaculate Virgin Mother of God and through the paternal love with which thou embraced the Child Jesus, we humbly beg thee to graciously regard the inheritance which Jesus Christ has purchased by his Blood, and with thy power and strength to aid us in our necessities.

O most watchful Guardian of the Holy Family, defend the chosen children of Jesus Christ; O most loving father, ward off from us every contagion of error and corrupting influence; O our most mighty protector, be propitious to us and from heaven assist us in our struggle with the power of darkness; and, as once thou rescued the Child Jesus from deadly peril, so now protect God's Holy Church from the snares of the enemy and from all adversity; shield, too, each one of us by thy constant protection, so that, supported by thy example and thy aid, we may be able to live piously, to die holy, and to obtain eternal happiness in heaven. + Amen.

10) ST MICHAEL PRAYER (prayer of Pope Leo XIII), followed by the SIGN OF THE CROSS.
