Prayer for Couples United in the Sacrament of Marriage

Prayer for Couples United in the Sacrament of Marriage

Whether you pray this rosary in part or in full, alone, as a couple or in a group, you can be assured of the power of unity in prayer. Each mystery is prayed for all the couples throughout the world who are united in the sacrament of marriage.

 Monday and Saturday: Joyful Mysteries
Tuesday and Friday: Sorrowful Mysteries
Wednesday and Sunday: Glorious Mysteries
  Thursday: Luminous Mysteries

In union with the Holy Couple, Mary and Joseph,
 the Love of God changes the world.

Request for the intercession of the Holy Couple:
Holy Mary and Saint Joseph,
We are/I am asking for
the intercession of your couple
through this rosary,
in order to spread the Father’s love
to all couples on earth united by the sacred bond of marriage
 (including our own).

May the graces of marriage renew and protect them.
AMEN.
