Chaplet of the Five Wounds

Chaplet of the Five Wounds

The Chaplet of the Five Wounds is a Passionist chaplet devoted to the Holy Wounds of Jesus.[1]

The chaplet is due to Father Paul Aloysius, the sixth superior general of the Passionists. The devotion also honors the mystery of the risen Christ which has the marks of the Five Wounds. Pope Leo XII approved the chaplet in 1823. [2]

This chaplet must be blessed by the Passionist superior or a delegation from him.[3]

Format of the chaplet

This chaplet has 25 beads, grouped into five sets. There are five mysteries for this chaplet, each with an associated scriptural meditation. [4]

The five mysteries are:

  • Jesus is conceived by the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary
  • The Spirit of the Lord rests on Jesus
  • Jesus is led by the Holy Spirit into the desert
  • The Holy Spirit in the Church
  • The Holy Spirit in the souls of the faithful
