Rosary is a concept that comes from the Latin rosarĭum . The notion is used to name a type of prayer that Catholics perform and the element that, made up of beads, is used to develop this same prayer.
The rosary allows the commemoration of various mysteries of the Virgin Mary and Jesus Christ .
It is also important to know that within the prayer of the Holy Rosary there are a series of prayers that are responsible for giving it shape. We are referring to the Our Father, the Hail Mary, the Glory Be, the so-called Jaculatorias, the Salve and the set of Mysteries. The latter are divided into four large groups: the Sorrowful Mysteries, the Joyful Mysteries, the Luminous Mysteries and the Glorious Mysteries.
