I started the first Saturdays last month, I went to confession, said the rosary, and did the 15 keeping Mother Mary company and then i went to Communion at the Vigle mass. I looked at some websites regarding the first Saturdays and Mother Mary put it in this order:

Confession,
Communion,
Rosary,
15 mins keeping Mother Mary company.

Does one stick with that layout or can you mix it up in terms of putting Communion last?

Also is it possible to offer the fruits of the first Saturdays for someone who died?

Thanks and God bless
 
If I may add another question here: In this Devotion, does the confession have to be on the same day, or can it - as with indulgenices - be also some days earlier or later, under the condition of course that one is in a state of grace on the day itself.
 
I also keep the first Saturday devotion. You can do them in any order and you have to go to confession within 8 days before or after the first Saturday. This comes from Fr. Andrew Apostoli.
 
Thanks for your help.

Hmmm i am unsure i hope someone answers your question friend.

AFAIK, you can go to Confession within the time period asked for in indulgences.

Also, yes, it is possible to mix up the order you listed for Communion.
 
So would this be considered a valid way to keep the first Saturdays:
  1. Mediate and recite Rosary on Saturday and keep Mother Mary company for 15mins at my home
  2. Get Confession on Monday with the intention of making reparation to Mother Mary
  3. Receive Holy Communion on Monday or 8 days after the first Saturday while in a state of Grace.
Would this fulfill the first Saturdays request?
 
You need to take communion on that Saturday or on the day you are in a state of Grace - if you possibly can on the Saturday. Make sure you are in a state of Grace in order to take Communion on that Saturday.
