How to wear it

This rosary is made to be worn as a necklace: it rests around the neck with the medal or crucifix you chose at the front. Wear it over a plain shirt or a sweater so the wooden beads show, or keep it in a pocket or bag and take it out when you pray.

Natural wood does not like water, so take it off before a shower, a swim or the gym, and keep it away from perfume. Hold the beads gently rather than pulling on the cord. It suits a confirmation, a godparent's gift, Easter or Christmas.

Questions

Can you wear a rosary as a necklace?

Yes, and this one is designed for it. There is no Church rule against wearing a rosary; what matters is wearing it with respect, as a sign of prayer rather than a fashion accessory.

Which of the five versions should I choose?

Choose the symbol that means most to the person: a crucifix (Pardon or standard) for the classic form, the Virgin Mary or Saint Benedict medal for a particular devotion, or the ring pendant for the simplest look.

What is the Pardon Crucifix on The Prayerful Rosary?

A crucifix that carries the Sacred Heart and the words Father, forgive them on its back. Pope Pius X granted indulgences to this crucifix in 1905; it is one of the five versions of this rosary.

Can a non-Catholic wear a rosary?

Yes. The rosary is above all a Catholic prayer, but anyone who respects it can wear one as a sign of devotion to Christ and Mary.

Does a rosary need to be blessed?

No, but many Catholics like to have their rosary blessed before praying with it. It arrives unblessed; any priest or deacon can bless it, usually after Mass.

Is it suitable for a man?

Yes. Natural wooden beads with silver-tone medals have a simple look that suits men and women alike.

The prayer

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

The Hail Mary, traditional prayer of the rosary

Its meaning

Five ways to finish a rosary

This rosary comes in five versions, and the cross or medal you pick changes its story. The Pardon Crucifix carries on its back the Sacred Heart and the words "Father, forgive them," the prayer of Jesus on the cross; Pope Pius X attached indulgences to it in 1905. The Saint Benedict medal recalls the founder of Western monasticism, and the Virgin Mary medal turns the rosary toward Mary herself. The standard crucifix keeps the classic form, and the ring pendant offers a simpler finish. Whatever the version, the natural wooden beads are there to count...

Giving it as a gift

Let the person choose, or choose for them: the Virgin Mary medal for a goddaughter, the Pardon Crucifix for a grandfather. It suits confirmation, Easter and Christmas alike.
