I was only talking about indulgences, which are given by the Church, for certain specific prayers or acts, and sometimes for certain intentions.

I'm glad you asked, Voxx. I had no idea you are required to atleast move your lips, if not audibly, when saying the Rosary prayers alone. I often don't :/. I will have to work on that.

Speaking of indulgences, I don't know many of the ins and outs for what is required for all the different indulgences. So, I often just tell God, "please grant me any indulgences I am able to obtain, depsite my ignorance." In other words, I just kind of leave the details to Him, in the event I acutally do meet the requirements, but am unaware of it. Is that ok? I figure He knows how to sort all that out in the end, anyway. If I get them, great. If not, I'll take whatever graces I can. Those that I am aware of, I do my best to fulfill properly.

The other is that the mysteries suggested for certain days are just that, suggestions. Yeah, like For Lent I usually say the sorrowful mysteries every day. I've not graduated to saying the entire Rosary every day, but rather just 5 decades. I do hope to faithfully say the whole thing every day at some point.

What about prayers after the Fatima Prayer and before the next Pater Noster? For example, we Insert a Prayer to our Lady of Guadalupe to end abortion and a Prayer to St. Therese.

And the Joyful Mysteries during Advent

Also, might I add that I read in a publication some time ago that the rosary to gain all the indulgences must be prayed LIVE, by that I mean you should not use a recorded tape. Some people insert tapes into their car and listen, maybe it would be okay if you listened, but you would have to pray out loud along with the hearing of the prayers. There is a rosary conference call, a free call, unless your provider charges, the call itself is free and it is LIVE, meaning all the people on it are there at present, not recorded. However, it was started by a few men who have impediments, so one's patience is challenged. One blind, and sometimes because he can't write down the names of the people who call in, he forgets at times who is on. The reason he wants to know is since the rosary is prayed on telephones, which cause interference if we all prayed at the same time as we normally do, i.e., in church with a group of people. (One person says the beginning of the prayer, and the entire group will pray the ending loud) On the telephone, the monitor will choose only ONE person to pray the beginning and another ONE person to pray the ending. The rest of us pray to ourselves while listening. He chooses different people with each decade. If you do not want to be selected, you simply tell him that you just want to listen. The other man that alternates as the monitor has a speech impediment. The people started this Rosary Conference for home bound individuals, but anyone can call in. It is each day at 7:00 Pacific Standard time, and they pray all 15 decades each night. However, many people hang up after the first 5 decades. I only tell you this so if you're curious and want to call you will understand about the leaders and their situations. The phone number is 1-712-7757031 a recording will ask you for the access number which is 393323# Thus far that I can remember the most callers we had was 18, most evenings we receive about 6 - 10 callers. Most people call in here and there, meaning not each night, but we have a few that call in almost daily as I do.

A priest told me that when alone, you at minimum must move your lips when said alone. I've never heard of this before. I have been doing it since I read it here, but come to think of it does this not contradict the omnipotence and omnipresence of God?

The prayers are vocal and the meditations mental.
