<Ul> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> </Ul> <P> The Rosary (pronunciation: / ˈrəʊz (ə) ri /, Latin: rosarium, in the sense of "crown of roses" or "garland of roses"), usually in the form of the Dominican Rosary, is a type of prayer used especially in the Catholic Church named for the string of knots or beads used to count the component prayers . When used as the type of prayer, the word is usually capitalized ("the Rosary"), as is customary for other names of prayers, such as "the Lord's Prayer", and "the Hail Mary". When referring to the beads, it is normally written with a lower - case initial ("a rosary"). </P> <P> The prayers that essentially compose the Rosary are arranged in several sets, each set composed of one Lord's Prayer followed by ten Hail Marys followed by one Glory Be . During recitation of each set, known as a decade, thought is given to one of the Mysteries of the Rosary, which recall events in the lives of Jesus and Mary . The Glorious mysteries are said on Sunday and Wednesday, the Joyful on Monday and Saturday, the Sorrowful on Tuesday and Friday, and the Luminous Mysteries are said on Thursday . Normally, five decades are recited in a session . Various prayers are sometimes added after each decade (for example, the Fátima Prayer), at the beginning (in particular, the Apostles' Creed), and at the end (in particular, the Hail, Holy Queen). The rosary as a material object is an aid towards saying these prayers in the proper sequence . </P> <P> A standard fifteen Mysteries of the Rosary, based on the long - standing custom, was established by Pope Pius V during the 16th century, grouping the mysteries in three sets: the Joyful Mysteries, the Sorrowful Mysteries, and the Glorious Mysteries . During 2002 Pope John Paul II said that it is fitting that a new set of five be added, termed the Luminous Mysteries, bringing the total number of mysteries to twenty . These mysteries had been used by Holy Cross father Patrick Peyton during the 20th Century . </P>
