How to use this resource
- Choose the day and mystery group. The chart is a customary guide, not a requirement that prevents you choosing a different group.
- Find the five mysteries for that group below. Announce or read the next mystery before its decade.
- Use your own Rosary and prayer text. For each decade, follow one Our Father, ten Hail Marys and one Glory Be as described in the linked USCCB guide.
- If you stop, write your mystery group, decade and place on a separate note so you can return to the same point.
The downloadable CSV matches the printed table. It has no formulas and is not an app-import file. Entered browser-tool data, when offered, has its own download button.
The five mysteries in each group
Joyful: Annunciation; Visitation; Nativity; Presentation in the Temple; Finding in the Temple.
Luminous: Baptism in the Jordan; Wedding at Cana; Proclamation of the Kingdom; Transfiguration; Institution of the Eucharist.
Sorrowful: Agony in the Garden; Scourging at the Pillar; Crowning with Thorns; Carrying of the Cross; Crucifixion.
Glorious: Resurrection; Ascension; Descent of the Holy Spirit; Assumption; Coronation of Mary.
Sunday and seasonal practice
The USCCB guide describes Joyful Mysteries for Sundays in Advent, Sorrowful Mysteries for Sundays in Lent, and Glorious Mysteries outside those seasons. The weekly chart’s Sunday entry is therefore a starting point; use the seasonal practice you follow.
A five-decade place marker
Write the group, then mark your place: decade 1 □ decade 2 □ decade 3 □ decade 4 □ decade 5 □. A completion mark is only your personal place marker; this page does not store prayer progress or provide audio. For the full opening and closing sequence, use the source guide linked below.
