Q: Is there a Lutheran rosary?

A: I wouldn’t call it a rosary, but there exists what we might call the Pearls of Life or the Wreath of Christ: the Lutheran prayer beads. They are to be a practical device to encourage prayer, a time of silence and reflection.

The wooden beads are round, flat and of different colors.  They represent an exegesis of the Our Father. The wreath is rather circular, beginning with the golden bead and returning to it.

Golden bead	symbol of God	Our Father in Heaven
Small bead	symbol of Creature	Hallowed be Your name
White bead	symbol of Baptism	Your kingdom come
Sand-colored bead	symbol of Desert	Your will be done ...
Blue bead	symbol of Serenity	Give us this day our daily bread.
Red bead	symbol of Love	and forgive us our sins
Red bead	symbol of Sacrifice	as we forgive those ...
Small beads (three)	symbol of the "I"	asking for forgiveness
Black bead	symbol of Night	lead us not into temptation
White bead	symbol of Resurrection	but deliver us from evil
Golden Bead		For the Kingdom, the power and the glory are yours, now and forever.

The author of the Lutheran beads is Martin Lönnebo, Lutheran bishop in Sweden.
