"Niner" chaplets have been around for a very long
time and can be created for virtually any saint. "Niner" chaplets consist
of 3 sets of 3 beads with the saint's medal at the end, either as a loop or in
a straight line. Regardless of the configuration, you invoke the Saint's aid on
the medal and say an Our Father, Hail Mary and Glory be on each bead in the
3 groups. Sometimes a Crucifix is added (when made in a straight line) and
then the Apostles Creed is also said. More information may be found in THE
RACCOLTA on prayers and indulgences. These include mostly saints but also
include the Consecration to the Holy Family, another for the dying (St Joseph),
and another for the Acts of Adoration.
