| 1. The Ecumenical Miracle Rosary is
prayed using regular rosary beads. Free rosary beads can be obtained from Family
Rosary and Family Theatre Productions at http://www.familyrosary.org/main/rosary-rosaries-contact.php 2.
Starting at the crucifix, recite the Nicene
Creed.
3. On the first large bead, recite the Lord's
Prayer (Our Father).
4. On each of the next three small beads recite the Greatest Commandment.
5. Recite the Great Commission on the next large bead.
6. Recall the first "miracle"
and recite the Lord's
Prayer (Our Father) on the medal (it usually
has a picture of Jesus or the Virgin Mary on it). The Miraculous Healings are meditated
every
Monday, every Thursday, and on the Sundays from the first Advent Sunday until the Sunday before
Ash Wednesday. The Miraculous Acts are meditated
every Tuesday, every Friday, and on the Sundays
between Ash Wednesday and Palm Sunday. The Miraculous Appearances are meditated
every Wednesday, every Saturday, and on the Sundays from Easter until the Sunday before the first Advent
Sunday.
7. On each of the adjacent ten small beads (also referred to as a decade) recite the
Greatest
Commandment while reflecting on the miracle. If praying the Ecumenical Miracle Rosary for the
first time, it is advisable to read the scripture verses of each miracle carefully.
8. On the next large bead, recite
the Great Commission. Start on the next decade by reflecting on the next
"miracle"
and
praying the Lord's
Prayer (Our Father) on the same large bead as the last Great Commission
was prayed.
Then pray ten Greatest
Commandments on each of the next 10 small beads, and complete the
decade by praying the Great Commission
on the next large bead. Each of the succeeding 3
decades are prayed in a similar manner.
9. After five decades are prayed, the rosary is complete.
10. Finish by praying the "Jesus Prayer" on the medal.
