Just found this:
Saint St Dymphna rosary chaplet. Handmade with 17 beads, 15 in honor of her age, and 2 for the Intentions of the Holy Father. Red beads are in honor of her martyrdom, white beads honor her virginity, and brown ones are for relief of emotional disorders

Not to be a downer but isn’t Medjugorje unapproved by the Church?

Technically, yes. But I see nothing wrong with this devotion. It's only prayer.
I thought this issue was more open-ended and that it was up to us to believe in it or not.

The color of the beads usually don’t matter. If the colors are not used for aesthetic purposes they usually represent something as a reminder to pray for. Such as Fulton Sheen’s World Mission Rosary

Each color on the Rosary represents a different area where the Church continues its mission of evangelization:

  • Green: for the forests and grasslands of Africa.
  • Blue: for the ocean surrounding the Islands of the Pacific.
  • White: symbolizing Europe, the seat of the Holy Father, shepherd of the world..
  • Red: calling to mind the fire of faith that brought missionaries to the Americas.
  • Yellow: the morning light of the East, for Asia.


****************
You might find this helpful about the differences between a rosary and a chaplet.

For the St. Dymphna Chaplet, the red represents her martyrdom, white her virginity and green represents hope…..you found that, below, while I was typing. So since all beads are clear on mine, that’s ok?


EDITED, never mind. I just read your post # 41.

It’s just an honorary thing is my understanding. Your prayers will be no less effective because of the color of the beads. :)

It kind of weird with me. I tend to navigate towards things that intrigue and edify me by what inspired the chaplet or I just feel an unexplainable draw to it. Although that can change over time at different points of your life.
I felt a draw to the St. Dymphna Chaplet. And I wear her medal. (not the medal that includes Satan on it, a different one).

The Divine Mercy chaplet. Everytime. Or the Miracle Prayer. Plus some of my poorly put together interior prayers. :praying:
I have a question about St Faustina. Did she predict or receive a message from Jesus or Mary that the end of the world is imminent?

This is the St. Dymphna Chaplet I ordered. It could be here as early as tomorrow.

No she was not told the end of the world was imminent. She was told by Jesus than now is the time to turn to His mercy because when He returns He will be executing justice. Basically people should take advantage of His mercy before He returns and makes people that rejected His mercy pass through His door of justice. Also should be noted that this is her private revelations relayed to her alone.

No. Just for mankind to trust in the Divine Mercy of God.

I also have her medal, icon, and small statue of her. :)

Are private revelations different from other ones?

Says mine is coming on Sunday!
I just checked the mailbox and don’t think the mail carrier was here yet. My email said the 5th but then another one said Monday. i got mine from Etsy. Where did you get yours?
Another question, so since it’s not a rosary but a chaplet, can we bring them to church to pray on during Mass and Adoration like a rosary? I mean is that one of the things it’s for or is it primarily an at home prayer tool?
