Chaplet of the Way of the Cross

This Chaplet is a way of medidating on the Way of the Cross.  On it, there are 15 groups of 3 beads, each, between which are medals representing the Stations of the Cross.  An additional 6 beads are added as well as a Crucifix.

Beginning with the Crucifix, you bless yourself.

Prior to each group of 3 beads, say the following prayer,

"We adore You, O Christ,
and we bless You
because by Your Holy Cross
You have redeemed the World."
Then say,

1 Our Father

1 Hail Maryand

1 Glory Be
