Divine mercy Chaplet
How to Recite the Chaplet
The
Chaplet of Mercy is recited using ordinary Rosary beads of five decades. The
Chaplet is preceded by two opening prayers from the Diary of Saint
Maria Faustina Kowalska and followed by a closing prayer.
1.Make the Sign of the Cross
In the name of the Father, and of the
Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
2. Our Father
Our Father, Who art in heaven,
hallowed be Thy name; Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth as it is in
heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we
forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but
deliver us from evil, Amen.
3. Hail Mary.
Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is
with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy
womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour
of our death, Amen.
4. The Apostles’ Creed
I believe in God, the Father
almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our
Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered
under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried; He descended into
hell; on the third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven,
and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty; from there He will
come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Catholic
Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of
the body, and life everlasting. Amen.
5. The Eternal Father ( instead of Our Father in Rosary)
Eternal Father, I offer you the Body
and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your Dearly Beloved Son, Our Lord, Jesus
Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.
6. On the 10 Small Beads of Each Decade instead of Hail Mary in Rosary
For the sake of His sorrowful
Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world.
7. Repeat for the remaining decades
Saying the "Eternal Father"
on the "Our Father" bead and then 10 "For the sake of His
sorrowful Passion" on the following
"Hail Mary" beads. For 5 decades like Rosary
8. Conclude with Holy God (Repeat three times)
Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy
Immortal One, have mercy on us and on the whole world.
