I am going to get it blessed today at Mass.

By using this ring, is it the same as the Rosary?

Yes. It’s a sort of “portable Rosary.” When I would do hospital visits for our parish, I would give them to the patients. If you are sick in bed, or walking or traveling, they are easier to use.
 
I use a Rosary Ring all the time, when walking outside or on my treadmill. I figure, if I can pray, why not?

Its easy to handle and carries well in my pocket. Regular Rosary beads tend to get destroyed when I carry them in my pocket.
Also, they’re difficult to handle, on a brisk walk with arms swinging.

Yup. Do the windup prayers, then put the ring on your thumb. OF+ 10 HMs, Glory, Fatima, and move ring to the index finger. Repeat with all fingers of one hand. At end of little finger, do the winddown prayers. :gopray:

That’s why I use knotted cord rosaries when outside my apartment. I pray the Franciscan Crown at work, as idle periods crop up
 
I used to have one of those which I always kept in the car. It fit perfectly on the end of the lever for the windshield wipers, so it never got lost.

Barely fits on my ring finger…LOL

I have big hands, but I will try
 
I bought the exact same thing a couple of years ago. I keep the rosary ring in my bag wherever I go, and try to pray it whenever I can. I also have a couple of corded rosaries I got from Rosary Army, which I use at home. 🙂
 
My wife and I had a pair of rosary rings, but it was a real ring you could wear, and the outer circle spins around the inner circle. We had a pair made of white gold with regular gold for the nobs and the crosses. We presented them to each other when our marriage was validated. We wear them as our wedding rings, So my rosary ring goes with me everywhere!
 
I find those rings to be a bit painful for some reason. I use a wooden one similar to this but not near as pretty as this one:


I keep one in my coin purse.

You don’t have to have any sort of tool like this to pray the rosary though, all you need is the prayers and the right frame of mind. The beads do help you to focus on the mysteries in that they relieve you of having to keep track of how many prayers you’ve said. When I don’t have my beads, or my hands are busy, I just repeat the mystery and the # I’m on while I’m praying, like, “The Annunciation 2, Hail Mary… The Annunciation 3, Hail Mary…”

It is the same, just less beads. I had one but gave it to a fellow catechist. I believe some nuns use this type of rosary (I may be wrong).

I had never seen that exact one but I have a ring I wear on my middle finger every day. It has 10 mini beads and a mini cross just like this one I found here but mine is just metal and silver-color plated
 
I use it on the way to work and it’s very protable so I carry it all day. Perfect for my line of work!🙂

I cant find it now. 😦

Maybe I need to pray to St. Anthony. ( my middle name is Anthony)

My Mom always told me if I lost something to pray to him.

I have one just like this and I use it whenever I’m out on my lunchtime walk.

The purpose of praying the Rosary, isn’t the beads. You can use your fingers to pray the Rosary. The purpose of the beads is to merely to keep track of where you are.

Tell St. Anthony that you’ll say the next rosary in his honor. He’ll find it right quick.

They also come in flexible plastic if you find the metal ones a bit uncomfortable. Of course the important thing is to pray… no matter what beads you are using.

What a beautiful way to please God… by saying Ave’s throughout the day…

JMJ,
