54 day Novena
to the Blessed Virgin of the Rosary of Pompeii

The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary is apparently the oldest feast day of Our Lady and the Step-by-Step Commander Cross Rosary community will beginn the Assumption Fast on August 1 for fourteen days.


From the Feast of the Assumption the community will commence the 54 days novena by praying 15 mysteries of the rosary each day, praying it in one intention and through our standard Step-by-Step Rosary adding a few short prayers at the beginning and end.

The traditional Rosary, given to Saint Benedict, are:

  • The Joyful Mysteries to be prayed on Mondays and Thursdays.

Each Rosary is constructed the traditional catholic way of learning, by following of how Cardinal Leo Burke and Bishop Athanasius Schneider prays the Rosary in Latin. 

LET US OFFER

54 DAYS OF 15 DECADES OF THE ROSARY EACH DAY.

This 54-day novena to Our Lady is new to us, so, we have conducted some research to find out of how to do it. 


We are to:

  • pray 15 mysteries of the Rosary each day. For 54 days.
    (you do not have to say them all at once as it can be spread over the day)

  • praying the Rosary in one intention (

  • The first 27 days are for the petition.
  • The last 27 days to thanksgiving.




According to the Catholic National Shrine and Basilica of Our Lady in Walsingham, they suggest the following Petition and Thanksgiving prayers:


"Final prayer during the petition part of the Novena – pray with this invocation during the first 27 days of the
Novena:


`Blessed Lady of Pompeii, who has ever turned to you with confidence and has not been heard?

You have never turned down any of your children, any of your worshippers, who were looking for your help, hear my plea, o Mother of the Word, and through your Holy Rosary and the Temple of Pompeii please look with favor on my devotion. Amen.`


Final prayer during the thanksgiving part of the Novena – pray with this invocation during the second 27 days of the
Novena:


`What have I to offer you, Oh, Queen, rich in mercy and magnificence? What remains of my life I dedicate to you, and to the propagating of your cult everywhere, Oh, Virgin of the Rosary of Pompeii, through whose invocation the grace of the Lord has visited me.

I shall promote the devotion of your rosary;

I shall tell everyone of the mercy you have obtained for me; I shall always proclaim your goodness towards me, so that others as well, unworthy as I and sinners, may turn to you with confidence.

If all the world only knew how good you are, how compassionate with those who suffer,

all creatures would turn to you. Amen."
