Chaplets of Saints?

Is this the real chaplet of St. Gemma? I haven’t really found any other else out there.

Sometimes the prayers don’t match and it confuses me.

Chaplets are private devotions.
Sometimes words get changed depending on translations or if they are too flowery, people sometimes put them into more common parlance.
in short…they are sometimes written and composed by a religious, or someone advancing their cause…but anyone can devise a chaplet.
Don’t fret. Pray the version you like. The prayers are important. It’s the PRAYING that gets results, words are not magic in and of themselves.
God bless.

I doubt if there are any “official” chaplets. As said, they are private devotions & you can make up the prayers yourself.

If you look at the bottom of the Chaplet Prayer for Saint Gemma Galgani, you’ll see that it was made up by by one J.S. Kotchka in 2005 and even has a copyright.

A lot of saint’s chaplets are simply one decade of Hail Mary’s with another prayer or 2 added.
