Anglican Rosary – Celtic

Praying the Rosary is a tactile aid to focus on prayer. Our minds naturally tend to wander, and it can help to have something we can hold onto physically – sometimes, just the touch of an item dedicated to prayer can remind us of the peace of God and put us in a prayerful frame of mind.

There are many forms of prayers to use with the Anglican Rosary; the prayers on this page are drawn from the traditional Celtic prayer.
