Rosary for the parishes

Rosary for the parishes

We pray with Mary for our communities.

meditated rosary

The parish is the house where faith is shared, celebrated and transmitted from one to another. In praying this Rosary with Mary, present in the midst of the first Christian community, we ask for the priest and priests, for catechists and volunteers, and for those who seek in the parish a place of encounter with God. May they grow in communion and fraternity.

Suggested mysteries: Luminous
Spiritual fruit: Communion, fervor and fraternity
When I pray: For the parish itself, Christian groups and communities

How to pray it

Pray the Holy Rosary as usual - sign of the Cross, Creed, and every mystery with his Father, ten Avemarias and Gloria. Before you start, do the initial prayer; in every ten, you welcome the proposed intention; at the end, the final prayer. If you want to pray it guided step by step, enter into Begin the Rosary.

Opening prayer

Mary, Mother of the Church, you were with the apostles in prayer when the first community was born. I come to entrust you with my parish and all the Christian communities. I entrust you to the priests, catechists and volunteers, prayer groups and those who have gone away. He welcomes this plea and presents it to Jesus, who wants us gathered in his name.

Mysteries and meditations

Luminous Mysteries — for this intention:

1st mystery - The Baptism of Jesus in the Jordan

The Father proclaims his beloved Son and the Spirit descends upon him. By baptism every Christian enters the community and is called to live his faith in the parish.

Intent of this ten: by the priest and the priests, that they may shepherd with dedication and closeness.
2nd mystery - The Wedding of Cana

Mary looks at what is missing and intercedes before her Son. In the community there are always those who serve in silence so that nothing will fail others.

Intent of this ten: by catechists and volunteers, to serve with faith and generosity.
3rd mystery - The Annunciation of the Kingdom and the invitation to conversion

Jesus brings together those who listen to him and invites them to believe. The prayer groups keep faith and communion between the brothers alive.

Intent of this ten: by prayer groups, to be a source of fervor and unity in the parish.
4th mystery - The Transfiguration

Jesus shows his glory and revives the faith of the disciples. Let us ask that those who have left again discover the light of Christ in the community.

Intent of this ten: for those who have moved away from the parish, that they may find the way back again.
5th mystery - The institution of the Eucharist

Jesus gives himself up as a bread that gathers and feeds his people. The parish is renewed when gathered around the table of the Lord.

Intent of this ten: for the new Christians and children of catechesis, that they may grow in the faith they receive.

Closing prayer

Mother of the Church, receive the fruit of this Rosary prayed for our parishes. May they be living communities, where the one who arrives is welcomed, the one who suffers is accompanied and the Gospel is joyfully announced. Hold the shepherds, encourage those who serve and reunite those who have gone away. Make each parish a house of fraternity and prayer. Amen.

When you finish, you can offer this Rosary like a rose to the Virgin in the Rosary Garden.
