The Chaplet of Atonement. The offering of the Precious Blood for the priests.

The Chaplet is prayed on a classic rosary with five decades.

​

God, come to my aid. Lord, hasten to help me. Glory to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, and unto the ages of ages. Amen. Alleluia. (In Lent, instead of Alleluia, the following is prayed: Praise to You, O Lord, King of eternal glory.)


On the beads of the Our Father prayer: 1x - Eternal Father, I offer You the precious Blood of Your beloved Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lamb without blemish and without spot, as atonement for my sins and for the sins of all Your priests.


On the prayer beads Hail Mary: 10x - With Your Precious Blood, O Jesus, cleanse and sanctify Your priests.


Instead of the Glory Be: Father, from whom every fatherhood in heaven and on earth takes its name, have mercy on all your priests and wash them with the Blood of the Lamb. Amen.
