I am aware that there are different prayers to say on different days but if you were to say the whole thing including everything from alternate days. How long in total would it take you to pray it? Thanks for your help. Dawn.

Best Answer:

It takes fifteen minutes to say a rosary from start to finish. that works out to 1% of a 24 hour day. To say a daily rosary is to say just that day's one rosary. If your were to make a practice of saying all four rosaries daily it would take up 1 hour of your day. Each day a different rosary is said Monday the Joyful Mysteries Tuesday the Sorrowful Mysteries Wed. the Golorious Mysteries Thur. the Lumious Mysteries Friday the Sorrowful Mysteries Saturday the Glorious Mysteries and Sunday is decided based on the time of year (Advent or Lent) but is mostly left to you to decide. The benefits of saying a daily rosary are invaluable. THERE ARE FIFTEEN PROMISES OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN TO CHRISTIANS WHO FAITHFULLY PRAY THE ROSARY 1 To all those who shall pray my Rosary devoutly, I promise my special protection and great graces. 2 Those who shall persevere in the recitation of my Rosary will receive some special grace. 3 The Rosary will be a very powerful armor against hell; it will destroy vice, deliver from sin and dispel heresy. 4 The rosary will make virtue and good works flourish, and will obtain for souls the most abundant divine mercies. It will draw the hearts of men from the love of the world and its vanities, and will lift them to the desire of eternal things. Oh, that souls would sanctify themselves by this means. 5 Those who trust themselves to me through the Rosary will not perish. 6 Whoever recites my Rosary devoutly reflecting on the mysteries, shall never be overwhelmed by misfortune. He will not experience the anger of God nor will he perish by an unprovided death. The sinner will be converted; the just will persevere in grace and merit eternal life. 7 Those truly devoted to my Rosary shall not die without the sacraments of the Church. 8 Those who are faithful to recite my Rosary shall have during their life and at their death the light of God and the plenitude of His graces and will share in the merits of the blessed. 9 I will deliver promptly from purgatory souls devoted to my Rosary. 10 True children of my Rosary will enjoy great glory in heaven. 11 What you shall ask through my Rosary you shall obtain. 12 To those who propagate my Rosary I promise aid in all their necessities. 13 I have obtained from my Son that all the members of the Rosary Confraternity shall have as their intercessors, in life and in death, the entire celestial court. 14 Those who recite my Rosary faithfully are my beloved children, the brothers and sisters of Jesus Christ. 15 Devotion to my Rosary is a special sign of predestination all these promises are true Peace
