Anglican prayer beads 

Praying with beads is a very simple way of finding a rhythm and creating space for personal prayer – wherever you are.  

The Anglican rosary is inspired by the traditional rosary but is more flexible and adaptable to the seasons of the Church’s calendar.  This is a helpful way of praying that can lead you into reflection on your personal journey through the year.  

Praying with the Anglican Prayer Beads resembles a very short form of the office - Introductory Rite, Psalm verses, Gospel verses, Prayers, Collect, the Lord’s Prayer, Conclusion.  

Order your handmade rosary from the shop. 

We have developed prayer cards for every season.
