THE JOYFUL MYSTERIES (Mondays and Saturdays) 1st Joyful Mystery - The Annunciation We recall how Mary is praying in her little room. Heaven and earth rejoice greatly over this simple Virgin Kneeling in prayer. May I also be pleasing to God when I pray. We pray this mystery to be always humble. 2nd Joyful Mystery - The Visitation We recall how Mary and Joseph are making the three day journey from Nazareth to visit Elizabeth and Zachary; outwardly Mary is so poor
inwardly so rich with Jesus in her. Like Mary I will bear God in my heart throughout my whole life. We pray this mystery to love always our neighbor. 3rd Joyful Mystery - The Birth of Jesus We recall Bethlehem. In a poor stable Jesus is born. He denies Himself everything. He seeks only me. I too, must esteem heaven higher than earth. Today He is with us in the tabernacles of our Churches. There, I will often adore Him with Mary and Joseph. We pray this mystery to always that Jesus came to save our souls. 4th Joyful Mystery - The Birth of Jesus We recall how Mary and Joseph bring Jesus to the Temple. There, upon the arms of a priest He is offered to God. In a similar way He will be offered today through the hands of the priest at Holy Mass. Often will I offer the Child Jesus to God at Holy Mass, at Consecration and at the Holy Communion. We pray this mystery to offer ourselves always generously to God. 5th Joyful Mystery - The Finding in the Temple We recall how deep the sorrow of Mary and Joseph must have been, when losing the Child Jesus. On the streets and plazas they do not find Him. There, too, we seek in vain for peace and happiness. They find Him in the Temple. What a touching example of piety Jesus gives me here. We pray this mystery to be always faithful to our duty and to give always a good example.
THE SORROWFUL MYSTERIES (Tuesdays and Fridays) 1st Sorrowful Mystery – The Agony in the Garden We recall how Jesus is kneeling in a secluded spot and sees before Him the many and horrible sins men have committed. He prays and suffers, and a bloody sweat issues from His pores and trickles down to the ground. In hours of trouble and loneliness I will pray with the same spirit of resignation: “Father, not My will but Yours be done.” We pray this mystery to be always resigned to God’s Holy Will. 2nd Sorrowful Mystery – The Scourging of Jesus at the Pillar We recall how the soldiers carry out their bloody work on Jesus. How limitless is His patience, no word escapes His lips. No sacrifice is too great for Him to save my soul. He can scarcely endure more and falls to the ground covered with His own Blood.
We pray this mystery to merit the grace never to sin against holy purity. 3rd Sorrowful Mystery – The Crowning with Thorns We recall how Jesus is crowned with thorns, presented to the people with the words: “Behold this poor man!” Jesus looks upon the people and awaits their comion, but they cried: “Away with Him, Crucify Him!” What bitter disappointment are these words for Jesus. We pray this mystery to fight against our pride and be humble always with the humble Jesus. 4th Sorrowful Mystery – The Carrying of the Cross We recall how Jesus carries on wounded shoulders His heavy Cross. Three times He falls on the ground, so heavily do my sins weigh upon His Cross. Thereby He shows me how often I relapse into sin, especially into the same sins. We pray this mystery to ask for the grace to deny ourselves often, to take up our cross daily, and to follow Jesus. 5th Sorrowful Mystery – The Crucifixion We recall how Jesus is nailed to the Cross. Rough nails are driven through His hands and feet. From His lips comes only that sincere prayer: “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.” Jesus is Divine Love in the midst of the hate of this world. We pray this mystery that Jesus may not forsake us in the hour of our death. THE GLORIOUS MYSTERIES (Wednesdays and Sundays) 1st Glorious Mystery – The Resurrection We recall how Jesus rose from the tomb on Easter morning. The Divine Prince begins a new life that has no end. The five wounds shine like five gems. He appears to His Mother and changes her sorrow into inexpressible delight and joy. We pray this mystery to ask for the grace to rise from the grave of sin, and bad habits to a new life of grace. 2nd Glorious Mystery – The Ascension of the Lord We recall how Jesus bless His beloved Mother and the Apostles for the last time. Then before their very eyes He ascends into heaven; with sadness but still with infinite joy they watch Him go. We pray this mystery that we always walk in such a way that our path will lead us to heaven. 3rd Glorious Mystery – The Descent of the Holy Spirit
We recall how Mary, the Apostles and holy women prayed for the coming of the Holy Spirit. On Pentecost morning, He came down upon them and rekindled in their hearts the fire of Divine Love. I too must invoke Him. Without him I can accomplish nothing good. He dispenses all graces. We pray this mystery that the Holy Spirit may enlighten and strengthen us always and impart to us His Seven Gifts. 4th Glorious Mystery – The Assumption We recall how Jesus has taken His Mother to heaven with body and soul as a generous reward for her devoted love to Him while on earth. Mary my Mother, received my poor soul at the hour of my death and lead it to your Divine Son, my Judge. We pray this mystery that we may be granted the grace of final perseverance in a virtuous life and a happy death. 5th Glorious Mystery – The Crowning of Blessed Virgin We recall how Mary enters heaven and is greeted by the endless jubilation of angels and saints. Jesus sets upon her head and crown as Heaven’s Queen. She has endured the greatest suffering, therefore, to her has been given the greatest happiness. We pray this mystery to serve Jesus always faithfully on earth and so by doing may merit the crown of glory in heaven. THE MYSTERIES OF LIGHT (LUMINOUS) (Thursdays) 1st Luminous Mystery – The Baptism of Jesus at Jordan River As Christ descends into the waters of Jordan, the heavens open wide and the voice of the Father declares on Him the beloved Son, while the Spirit descends on Him to invest Him with the mission which He is to carry out. Am I living as a Son of God, according to the Baptism I have received, fulfilling the mission entrusted to me by the Spirit according to the example of the Blessed Virgin Mary. 2nd Luminous Mystery – The Wedding Feast at Cana As the wedding of Cana, Christ changes water into wine and opens the hearts of the disciples to faith, thanks to the intervention of Mary, the first among believers. Am I aware that my life should be completely changed by the presence of Christ from water into wine – asking the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary. 3rd Luminous Mystery – The Proclamation of the Coming of Kingdom of God Jesus proclaimed the Kingdom of God to the people of Galilee, calling of sinners to conversion, forgiving sin, and healing the sick. Am I aware that
I have the Divine command to announce God’s Kingdom till the furthest ends of the earth, by preaching, prayer, and action, according to the example of the Blessed Virgin Mary. 4th Luminous Mystery – The Transfiguration Jesus is transfigured on Mount Tabor to prepare the apostles for his coming ion, death, and resurrection. Am I willing to accept the cross in my life in order to experience the resurrection, following the example of the Blessed Virgin Mary. 5th Luminous Mystery – The Institution of the Eucharist During the Last Supper, the Lord gave the greatest sigh of his love for us by offering his body and blood for the salvation of the world. Am I willing to offer myself in sacrifice for the glory of God and the salvation of souls, on the example of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
