Anglican Prayer Beads

The Anglican Rosenkranz ( Anglican Prayer Beads ) is a relatively new form of prayer, the elements of the Catholic and Orthodox Rosary contains. Lynn Bauman developed the shape of the Anglican rosary, which consists of a cross and 33 pearls, in the 1980s. The prayer begins on the cross, then you switch to the first large pearl ( The Invitatory ) and then move on to the four rows, each consisting of one large pearl ( The Cruciforms ) and seven small pearls ( The Weeks ).

There is no fixed form for the Anglican rosary prayer. Every prayer can put together the prayers that he says on the individual pearls. For example, there is a known series of prayer that includes the Trisagion and the Jesus prayer :

The Cross: The cross:
In the Name of God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Amen. In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
The Invitatory: Invitatory:
O God make speed to save me,
O Lord make haste to help me,
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
As it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever.
Amen. 		Oh God, come to my aid,
Lord, hurry to help me.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
as in the beginning so now and all time and forever. Amen.
The Cruciforms: Cross Shaping Beads:
Holy God,
Holy and Mighty,
Holy Immortal One,
Have mercy upon me. 		Holy God,
Holy Mighty God,
Holy Immortal God,
have mercy on me.
The Weeks: Week pearls:
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God,
Have mercy on me, a sinner. 		Lord Jesus Christ, (Son of God)
have mercy on me, a sinner.
