Wednesday

The third Glorious Mystery: The Coming ofthe Holy Spirit at Pentecost

(see Acts 2:1-11)

 

  • Slide your fingers to the first bead of the third decade (following the Our Father bead). With your fingers on this bead, say the Hail Mary.

 

Hail Mary

Hail, Mary, full of grace,

the Lord is with you (thee).

Blessed are you (thou) among women,

and blessed is the fruit of your (thy) womb, Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners,

now and at the hour of our death.

  • Repeat this step for the next nine beads.

  • When you reach the space before the next Our Father bead (It could be a section of chain, rope or beads.), hold this section and say the Glory Be.

 

Glory Be

Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,

as it was in the beginning,

is now, and ever shall be,

world without end. Amen.

 

  • And then say the Fatima Prayer

 

Fatima Prayer

O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell.

Lead all souls to heaven, especially those in need of your mercy.

The Third Decade

You are now at the Our Father bead before the third decade. Holding this Our Father bead, say the mystery of the third decade. You would say, “The third Glorious Mystery: The Coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost.”

 

  • Meditate on this mystery.

 

  • Still holding this bead, say the Our Father.

 

Our Father

Our Father, who are (art) in heaven,

hallowed be your (thy) name.

Your (Thy) Kingdom come.

Your (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.
