Pro-Life Rosary

How to pray the Pro-Life Rosary 

On the Crucifix: Lord, for all those who say "I don't believe," I say "I believe in God"...continue with saying the creed.

First Our Father (clear/white beads): Offer the first OUR FATHER for the intentions of our Holy Father the Pope.

The three purple HAIL MARY'S: The purple represents the Lord's Passion and Death. Pray: Lord, I offer these three Hail Mary's for an increase in Faith, Hope, and Love in all people so that all people will always CHOOSE LIFE, and I also offer them in reparation for the suffering you endure each time an unborn babe is killed, each time someone is euthanized, and each time death overcomes life in this world. Amen. Mysteries of the Week: Joyful Mysteries, Monday and Saturday; Sorrowful Mysteries, Tuesday and Friday; Luminous Mysteries, Thursday; Glorious Mysteries, Wednesday and Sunday.

First Decade (aqua-blue and clear/white beads): State the Mystery of the day. Pray: Dear Lord, Dear Mother Mary, every aqua bead in this decade is special, for on it I pray that ‘Hail Mary’ for the intentions of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, and on every clear/white bead, I say that ‘Hail Mary’ for Peace in our world. Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, Have Mercy on us! Mary, Queen of Peace, pray for us! Amen.

Second Decade (red and clear/white beads): State the Mystery of the day. Pray: Jesus, Source of Mercy, Mary, Bearer of Mercy, on every "red" ‘Hail Mary’, I pray in reparation for the blood spilled from every baby wrenched from its mother's womb through abortion. I know that even as you hold and comfort each of these precious little ones, the horror of their slaughter screams for justice to be meted out upon our world. May these "red" ‘Hail Mary’s’ be a source of reparation for our sins. I also offer each "white/clear" ‘Hail Mary’ for the mothers and fathers of these aborted little ones, that they may receive the grace to repent of this sin, turn to Jesus, and receive the gift of salvation with open hearts. Heal them of the emotional and psychological wounds that this sin has caused as you pour out the graces of conversion upon them. Let them now witness for life! Amen

Third Decade (black and clear/white beads): State the Mystery of the day. The black beads are symbolic for the entire medical profession that participates in pro-death activities. All doctors, nurses, assistants, and helpers of every type that contribute to abortion, euthanasia, and anti-life practices of every sort. Every "clear/white" ‘Hail Mary’ is for their conversion, repentance, and courage in standing against this crimson tide of death! Pray: Lord Jesus, Mother Mary, in this decade I offer reparation for all the sins of the medical personnel that act in the interest of death in our society and in our world. I plead also for their conversion to your truth. Let them see the truth of what they are doing, see the horror of it, rend their hearts in repentance, then work for Life and for You, Jesus, all the rest of their days. Amen.

Fourth Decade (red, clear/white, and blue beads): State the Mystery of the day. Pray: Lord Jesus, Source of all Truth, Mary, Our Lady of all People's, with every red 'Hail Mary' I pray that every evil, anti-life law in our nation and world be reversed. With every clear 'Hail Mary' I plead protection and strengthening of every pro-life law in existence, and with every blue 'Hail Mary' I petition for new and strong pro-life laws to be enacted in our nation and in our world. Amen.

Fifth Decade (green and clear/white beads): State the Mystery of the day. The color green is symbolic of hope. Our Hope is Jesus Christ and the Life in the Holy Spirit He offers to us if we but receive it. Because of our hope in Jesus we have faith that one day our hope for mercy justice, truth, peace, and life will be fully realized. Pray: Lord Jesus, I thank you for your incarnation in our human flesh. You were formed in the womb of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Your humanity at the moment of your conception gives us, each and everyone, humanity at the moment of your conception. Had Satan had His way, you too would have been torn from your mother’s womb, never to be born, and never to fulfill your destiny in the particular manner in which you did fulfill it. On every "green" 'Hail Mary' I thank you for those who in any way work for life. Give them continued courage, strength, peace of heart, and love. Protect them from all evil and increase their witness in this nation and in this world. Strengthen their families to understand the importance of their work and to support them in their stand for life.

Mother Mary, our mother, under the titles of Our Lady of Guadeloupe, Mother of Perpetual Help, Queen of Peace, join us in our intercession for the end of all pro-death, pro-choice activities, Crush the dead of evil in our nation, our world, and in our personal lives. Roll back the crimson holocaust. With every "clear/white" 'Hail Mary' of this decade advance the cause of your Divine Son, Jesus, the Incarnate Word! Stay the hand of Chastisement, and if it must fall - Protect your children. Amen.
