How to Pray the Rosary
Begin: Make the Sign of the Cross and pray the Apostles’ Creed.
On the first large bead: Pray the Our Father.
On the next three small beads: Pray three Hail Marys (for Faith, Hope, and Charity).
Before the first decade: Pray the Glory Be and announce the mystery.
Each decade: On the large bead pray the Our Father; on each of the ten small beads pray a Hail Mary; then the Glory Be. You may add the Fatima Prayer.
Conclude: Pray the Hail, Holy Queen and end with the Sign of the Cross.
