I just ordered a 15 decade Rosary. I have a 20 decade Rosary that I made and I tried praying it once but it was so big lol that it got tangled and stuff while I was walking. So I ordered a 15 decade rope rosary that is only 29" long! Im looking forward to getting it and using it.


Has anyone ever prayed on a 15 decade Rosary? My spiritual advisor told me that it would be a good experience and plans on helping me through the experience. I will have to let you all know how it goes once it comes in the mail :)!

I've also prayed the entire 15 decades of the Rosary with my Bible study group a couple of times. Never used a 15 decade Rosary before.

I'm searching for a 20 decade rosary. I saw a kit to make your own Rosary, so i might do that for myself as a meditative exercise. Wouldn't also mind a 15 one though.

A small group of us prayed 15 decades of the Rosary to welcome in the New Year, but not on a 15 decade Rosary. I have trouble enough keeping a 5 decade Rosary from breaking and tangling - I'd be down right dangerous with 15 decades, let alone 20!
LOL the 20 decade Rosary was a mess lol it was one I had made so it was metal and such and just a mess hehe.

Yeah making my 20 decade Rosary was alot of fun. It is all kinds of colors though and not the nicest looking thing LOL. But I enjoyed making it and praying it was an experience next time I pray on it Im going to not walk with it hehe.

I have prayed all 20 decades in one sitting, but on a standard set of rosary beads.

Same. Back when there were only three Mysteries, one parish that I was in would say the 15 decades before First Friday Mass. I must admit that the very first time they did it was a real "eye opener" for me. Made the Rosary as a meditation on the life of Christ from beginning to end quite real for me.

I have prayed on a 20-decade rosary, a couple of times, while walking as well as in my room. It is not knotted, the Our Father beads are only seperated by their larger size, and the whole rosary is not that long (but not that short either&#8230;) I have also prayed the entire rosary (15 and 20 mysteries) on ordinary rosary beads -- in a row or with breaks in between.

You can also buy kits (two different types--one for wire Rosaries and one for the cord and plastic beads one--instructions are included) from here: http://www.olrm.win.net/

It's a great ministry and quite "addicting" too.
I guess you aren't a geek until you are addicted to ordering rosaries through the mail. Done that, been there.
But now I'm clean, i.e. I haven't bought any beads for the last two years or so. I only accept them as gifts&#8230;or make them for others.

Tell me when that comes in and we can pick a day and pray our Rosaries together for the church and for the Pope and for peace! That would be powerful if we could get more people to pray 15 decades with us!!!

Wow, I never knew they existed! I just have my one single 5 decade rosary...I do have to other sets that are plastic which I got for free and have given to my daughter (she has less chance of breaking them and it stops her from eyeing off mine)

I need to get some more though.
