The Rosary

This term we have been learning about the Rosary. The Rosary is a Catholic prayer devotion which brings us closer to Mary and Jesus. It is mapped out on a long necklace with a cross at the end of it. Each bead or knot counts a prayer.

To pray the rosary you start with the Our Father, 3 Hail Mary's and Glory Be. Then you move on to the first mystery, 10 Hail Mary's and Glory Be. The second mystery 10 Hail Mary's and Glory be. Repeat until up to the 5th mystery. After the 5th mystery you finish with Hail Holy Queen, The Rosary Prayer and a big sign of the cross.
