- Lovely Stations of the Cross Rosary
- Brown round wooden beads and
- Cross and beautiful pictures depicting each station
- Pray the Stations any time, any where
- Made in Italy
Brown wood beads and full color representations of the 14 Stations of the Cross make this Stations of the Cross Rosary (actually a chaplet) a perfect one to help guide our prayers. The crucifix depicts Christ, the Holy Spirit dove, and God the Father in the background revealing the concept of the Blessed Trinity. Each of the 14 station medals have the station number engraved on the back and are separated from each other with three smaller beads. The resurrection is featured at the center. Meditating on the Passion of Christ makes a wonderful practice, whether for Fridays during the year, anytime throughout Lent, or as a way to unite to Christ on the cross. The medals are intended to turn around as you pray so that at times you will be able to see the number and at times you are able to see the image.
Pray the Stations of the Cross Rosary using the method below:
BEGIN ON THE CRUCIFIX
Make the Sign of the Cross and say the Apostles’ Creed
+
NEXT FIVE BEADS
Say the Act of Contrition, the Our Father, Hail Mary, and Glory Be. On the last pray the Prayer to Jesus Christ Crucified:
My good and dear Jesus, I kneel before you, asking you most earnestly to engrave upon my heart a deep and lively faith, hope, and charity, with true repentance for my sins, and a firm resolve to make amends. As I reflect upon your five wounds, and dwell upon them with deep compassion and grief, I recall, good Jesus, the words the prophet David spoke long ago concerning yourself: ‘They have pierced my hands and my feet; they have counted all my bones!
+
BEFORE EACH STATION
Pray the prayer attributed to St. Francis of Assisi:
We adore You, O Christ, and we praise You, because by Your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.
+
EACH SET OF 3 BEADS
Meditate on each Station and pray:
Our Father, Hail Mary, and Glory Be
+
CLOSING PRAYER
Lord Jesus Christ, your passion and death is the sacrifice that unites earth and heaven and reconciles all people to you. May we who have faithfully reflected on these mysteries follow in your steps and so come to share your glory in heaven where you live and reign with the Father and the Holy Spirit one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
