Rosary Novena-Day Seventeen - Joyful Mysteries in Petition

​

 Say one Hail Mary

Opening prayer for the first 27 days in petition:    Hail, Queen of the Most Holy Rosary, my Mother Mary, hail! At your feet I humbly kneel to offer you a Crown of Roses, snow white buds to remind you of your joys, each bud recalling to you a holy mystery, each 10 bound together with my petition for a particular grace. O Holy Queen, dispenser of God’s graces, and Mother of all who invoke you, you cannot look upon my gift and fail to see its binding. As you receive my gift, so will you receive my petition; from your bounty you will give me the favor I so earnestly and trustingly seek. I despair of nothing that I ask of you. Show yourself my Mother!                                                                                 

The Apostles’ Creed, Our Father, 3 Hail Marys, Glory Be       

 

1st  Joyful Mystery - The Annunciation      

Sweet Mother Mary, meditating on the Mystery of the Annunciation, when the angel Gabriel appeared to you with the tidings that you were to become the Mother of God, greeting you with that sublime salutation, “Hail full of grace! The Lord is with you!” and you humbly submitted yourself to the will of the Father, responding, “behold the handmaid of the Lord. Be it done unto me according to your word,” I humbly pray:     

 Our Father, 10 Hail Marys, Glory Be.                                               

Concluding Prayer: I bind these snow-white buds with a petition for the virtue of humility and humbly lay this bouquet at your feet.           

       

2nd Joyful Mystery - The Visitation   

Sweet Mother Mary, meditating on the Mystery of the Visitation, when upon your visit to your holy cousin Elizabeth she greeted you with the prophetic utterance, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!” and you answered with that canticle of canticles, the Magnificat, I humbly pray:    

Our Father, 10 Hail Marys, Glory Be                                                                            Concluding Prayer: I bind these snow-white buds with a petition for the virtue of charity and humbly lay this bouquet at your feet                                                                                                                                             

3rd Joyful Mystery - The Nativity                                                                      

Sweet Mother Mary, meditating on the Mystery of the Nativity of our Lord, when your time being completed you brought forth the Redeemer of the World in a stable at Bethlehem, whereupon choirs of angels filled the heavens with their exultant song of praise, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men of good will,”  I humbly pray:

Our Father, 10 Hail Marys, Glory Be.                                                                    Concluding Prayer: I bind these snow-white buds with a petition for the virtue of detachment from the world and humbly lay this bouquet at your feet                                                                                                     

4th Joyful Mystery - The Presentation                                                                          Sweet Mother Mary, meditating on the Mystery of the Presentation of our Lord, when in obedience to the Law of Moses you presented your son in the Temple, where the holy prophet Simeon, taking the child in his arms, offered thanks to God for allowing him to look upon his Savior and foretold your suffering by the words, “Your soul also a sword shall pierce,” I humbly pray:

Our Father, 10 Hail Marys, Glory Be                                                                            Concluding Prayer: I bind these snow-white buds with a petition for the virtue of purity and humbly lay this bouquet at your feet                                                                                                                                            

5th Joyful Mystery -  Finding the Child Jesus in the Temple                                        Sweet Mother Mary, meditating on the Mystery of the Finding of the Child Jesus in the Temple, when after sorrowfully seeking your lost son for three days you discovered him in the Temple speaking with the teachers and upon your request he obediently returned home with you and Joseph, I humbly pray:

Our Father, 10 Hail Marys, Glory Be.                                                          Concluding Prayer: I bind these snow-white buds with a petition for the virtue of obedience to the will of God and humbly lay this bouquet at your feet.          

                                                                                                                                    Spiritual Communion

My Jesus, really present in the most holy Sacrament of the Eucharist, since I cannot now receive you in the form of bread and wine, I ask with a heart full of love and longing that you come spiritually into my soul through the intercession of your most holy Mother. Abide with me forever: you in me, I in you, in time and in eternity, in Mary

 

Closing Prayer for the first 27 days in petition:  Sweet Mother Mary, I offer you this spiritual communion to bind my bouquets in a wreath to place upon your brow. O my Mother! Look with favor upon my gift, and in your love obtain for me my request.   Mention your intentions here            

 

O God, whose only begotten Son, by his life, death and resurrection has purchased for us the reward of eternal life, grant we beseech you, that meditating upon these mysteries of the most holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary we may imitate what they contain and obtain what they promise, through the same Christ, our Lord. Amen.

May the divine assistance remain always with us, Amen.

And may the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

Holy Virgin Mary, with your loving Child, your blessing give to us this day (night).

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
