SEVEN DECADE -JOYS OF MARY- FRANCISCAN CROWN ROSARY
August 27 - Feast of the Seven Joys of Our Lady
"Throughout the history of the Franciscan Order blessed results have been so often achieved in various necessities, that at the request of the superiors of the order the popes have attached rich indulgences to its recitation. It is urgently recommended that all members of the order recite it at least every Saturday. Make that a rule for yourself. You may then rest assured that you will participate in the joys of Our Lady in heaven." [From the "Franciscan Book Of Saints".] ...Seven decade, brown beads, metal San Damiano Cross with blessing on back, medal of St. Francis, laminated Saint Francis Holy Card with Peace Prayer on back and a instruction pamphlet on the method of saying the Franciscan Crown. "To gain the indulgences, it is not necessary to meditate on the various mysteries, but merely to recite the decades in honor of them. Moreover the Crown may be interrupted at will, as long as the entire rosary of seven decade is recited on one and the same day (Pius X, July 22, 1908). From the foregoing it is evident that the Franciscan Crown is the easiest rosary to say and at the same time the most richly indulgence of all rosaries."
