The Rosary contemplates moments from the life of Jesus Christ with Mary. Each decade announces a mystery and is prayed with an Our Father, ten Hail Marys, and a Glory Be. In prayer mode, the screen always shows what comes next, who says it, and what follows.
LEADER / ALL
In shared prayer, the leader announces mysteries and says invocations. When a formula is prayed together, it is marked ALL.
