Fourth Day
Easter Monday



Opening Prayer


  
"Today bring to Me those who do not believe in God and those who do not know Me, I was thinking also of them during My bitter Passion, and their future zeal comforted My Heart. Immerse them in the ocean of My mercy."  

Most compassionate Jesus, You are the Light of the whole world. Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls of those who do not believe in God and of those who as yet do not know You. Let the rays of Your grace enlighten them that they, too, together with us, may extol Your wonderful mercy; and do not let them escape from the abode which is Your Most Compassionate Heart.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls of those who do not believe in You, and of those who as yet do not know You, but who are enclosed in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. Draw them to the light of the Gospel. These souls do not know what great happiness it is to love You. Grant that they, too, may extol the generosity of Your mercy for endless ages. Amen.

Apostles Creed

Hail Mary

Our Father

V: Eternal Father, I offer Thee the body and blood, soul and divinity of Your dearly bevolved Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ...
R: ...in atonement for our sins and those of the whole World.

Following the beads of the rosary, repeat the following ten times:

V: For the sake of His sorrowful passion,
R: Have mercy on us and on the whole world

Instead of the 'Glory Be' at the end of the decade, say:

V: Eternal Father, I offer Thee the body and blood....

At the end of the 5 decades say the following three times:

V: Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One
R: Have mercy on us and on the whole world
