The Sorrowful Mysteries

Sign of the Cross

In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen

The Apostles’ Creed

I believe in God the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord; Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried. He descended into hell. On the third day He arose again; He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty; from there He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting.

Amen

The Lord's Prayer
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. And lead us not into temptation: but deliver us from evil. Amen.

5th Sorrowful Mystery​

The Crucifixion and Death of Jesus

When they came to the place called The Skull, they crucified him there, along with the criminals one on his right, the other on his left. And Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.”…It was now about the sixth hour, and there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour, while the sun’s light failed; and the curtain of the temple was torn into two. Then Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said “Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit!” and having said this he breathed His last.

Prayer to St. Joseph after the Rosary

To you, O blessed Joseph,
do we come in our tribulation,
and having implored the help of your most holy Spouse,
we confidently invoke your patronage also.

Through that charity which bound you
to the Immaculate Virgin Mother of God
and through the paternal love
with which you embraced the Child Jesus,
we humbly beg you graciously to regard the inheritance
which Jesus Christ has purchased by his Blood,
and with your 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 kind to us
and from heaven assist us in our struggle
with the power of darkness.

As once you 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 your constant protection,
so that, supported by your example and your aid,
we may be able to live piously, to die in holiness,
and to obtain eternal happiness in heaven.

Amen.

 

St. Michael the Archangel

Holy Michael, the Archangel,
defend us in battle.
Be our safeguard against the wickedness
and snares of the devil.

May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; and do you,
O Prince of the heavenly host,
by the power of God cast into hell Satan
and all the evil spirits
who wander through the world
seeking the ruin of souls.

Amen.
