Anglican Rosary: Angelus

[AngCath]

Here is how I adapted the Angelus into use on my Anglican Rosary.

Cross: In the name of the Father...

Invitatory (opening): [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica]We fly to thy patronage, O holy Mother of God; despise not our petitions in our necessities, but deliver us from all dangers, O ever glorious and blessed Virgin.[/FONT]

Week (small) beads: Hail, Mary...

Cruciform (large) beads:
1st Cruciform: The angel of the Lord announced unto Mary, and she conceived by the Holy Ghost.

2nd Cruciform: Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word.

3rd Cruciform: And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us.

4th Cruciform: Pray for us O holy Mother of God, that we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

Invitatory (closing): We beseech thee O Lord to pour thy grace into our hearts, that as we have known the incarnation of your Son Jesus Christ by the message of an angel, so by His cross and passion we may be brought to the glory of His resurrection. Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Cross: I will bless the Lord, thanks be to God.

I didn't realize that Anglicans used rosaries.

Are they like the RCC, or Prayer Ropes like the EO's?

My parish is the base for some sort of Roman Catholic and Anglican Rosary society. People come here regularly to pray the rosary. I am a big fan of the Daily Office, but I have friends that swear the Rosary has been as big a help to them as the Mass. I have not found that when I prayed the rosary, but I have only done it twice.

What is said for the Rosary? Is it the "Hail mary full of grace the lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus." ??

I pray both, I use the Marian (Catholic) rosary one time and my Anglican one the next. The site quoted above is an excellent resource

I never realised Anglicans used beads (no-one at my church does), but I am intrigued to say the least
That is a really helpful link

the best thing about anglican rosaries is simply, you can write or adapt your own prayers. i wrote a penitent rosary of st. john the baptist i say in place of confession if i cant make it. a great idea, who ever came up with them! anyone else have custom prayers?

In The Anglican Church We Do Use Rosaries, Be It The Traditional Dominican Rosary That The Roman Catholics Use Or The Different Styled Rosary Called The Anglican Rosay Which Has 33 Beads On? Don't Quote Me On That, But I'd Say The More Anglo-Catholic Side Of Anglicanism Would Use The Rosary.

I have written two morning prayer compilations for my blog. One based upon the Daily Office:

Cross:
Most merciful God,
we confess that we have sinned against you
in thought, word, and deed,
by what we have done,
and by what we have left undone.
We have not loved you with our whole heart;
we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves.
We are truly sorry and we humbly repent.
For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ,
have mercy on us and forgive us;
that we may delight in your will,
and walk in your ways,
to the glory of your Name. Amen.
(BCP 79)

The Invitatory
Open my lips, O Lord, *
and my mouth shall proclaim your praise.
Create in me a clean heart, O God, *
and renew a right spirit within me.
Cast me not away from your presence *
and take not your holy Spirit from me.
Give me the joy of your saving help again *
and sustain me with your bountiful Spirit.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: *
as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.
(From Psalm 95 + Gloria Patri)

The Cruciforms
The Lord is full of compassion and mercy: Come let us
adore him. (BCP 81)

The Weeks
Let me hear of your loving-kindness in the morning,
for I put my trust in you; * show me the road that I must walk,
for I lift up my soul to you. (Psalms 143:8, BCP)

Final Cruciform:
The Apostles' Creed
I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth;
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord.
He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit
and born of the Virgin Mary.
He suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried.
He descended to the dead.
On the third day he rose again.
He ascended into heaven,
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again 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 the life everlasting. Amen.

The Invitatory:
The Lord's Prayer:
Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your Name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins
as we forgive those
who sin against us.
Save us from the time of trial,
and deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power,
and the glory are yours,
now and for ever. Amen.

The Cross
Lord God, almighty and everlasting Father, you have brought
us in safety to this new day: Preserve us with your mighty
power, that we may not fall into sin, nor be overcome by
adversity; and in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your
purpose; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
(BCP 100)

And then another one not based upon the daily office:

The Cross: (The Apostle’s Creed, English Language Liturgical Consultation translation)
I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, God's 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;
he ascended into heaven,
he is seated at the right hand of the Father,
and 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 the life everlasting. Amen.

The Invitatory Bead
Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. (1 Thes. 8:15-16, NRSV)

The Cruciform Beads
This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. (Psalms 118:24, NRSV)

The Week Beads
Lead me in your truth, and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; for you I wait all day long. (Psalms 25:5, NRSV)

Dismissal Bead: (The Lord’s Prayer, English Language Liturgical Consultation translation)
Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins
as we forgive those who sin against us.
Save us from the time of trial
and deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours
now and for ever. Amen.

The Cross: (Gloria Patri, English Language Liturgical Consultation translation)
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.
