3. Hail Mary Prayer
Hail Mary: The greeting of the angel Gabriel opens this prayer. It is God himself who,
through his angel as intermediary, greets Mary (Luke 1:28)
Full of grace, the Lord is with thee: Mary is full of grace because the Lord is with her.
Mary, in whom the Lord himself has just made his dwelling the ark of the covenant, the place where the
glory of the Lord dwells
Blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus: "Filled with the
Holy Spirit," Elizabeth is the first in the long succession of generations who have called Mary
"blessed."
Holy Mary, Mother of God: With Elizabeth we marvel, "And why is this granted me, that the
mother of my Lord should come to me?“ (Luke 1:48)
Pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death: By asking Mary to pray for us, we
acknowledge ourselves to be poor sinners, we give ourselves over to her now and to surrender
"the hour of our death" wholly to her care

Faith, Hope and Charity
Meditate First Mystery and offer intentions
1 Our Father, 10 Hail Mary, 1 Glory be, Fatima Prayer
