I’m converting to Catholicism. I don’t understand how to pray the Rosary, specifically what to say, how to word intentions and the mysteries. Thank you.
 
Thank you. I try and pray the Rosary daily. I have found that on the days that I miss, it’s not a good day.
 
Dear Southrnbelle,

I have been praying the Rosary (almost) everyday for the last nine years since I came back to the Church after a 40 year absence. I had forgotten how to be Catholic and I used ther Rosary as a way to help me on my way back. I had been gone so long, I forgot how to pray it so when I bought my rosary, I also bought a booklet: Pray the Rosary.


Thjis booklet has scriptural readings on each mystery to help me concentrate my meditation. I am currently using one I wrote for myself but it is basically the same as the one above.

If you do not want to buy one there are also similar items available for free download at this URL:


I too find that when I do not do my morning prayers the day has gotten off to a bad start. Welcome to the Church and keep your prayer life alive.

The rosary group I attend says our intentions before starting the first mystery. By myself, I do it after the sign of the cross.

I don’t think the timing is as important as the sentiment. I think Jesus is just happy that you are celebrating his mother.
