In the Glorious Mysteries, we celebrate the everlasting joy of God’s love and the hope of eternal life. Christ ascends to the Father, opening heaven to all who believe, and the Holy Spirit descends to fill our hearts with faith and courage. Mary, who remained faithful to her Son in all things, is taken into the joy of heaven and crowned as our Queen and Mother. These mysteries remind us that our journey does not end in sorrow, but in glory—that through Christ, we are called to share in the life and joy of heaven. Today’s focus is the mysteries of the Ascension, the Descent of the Holy Spirit, the Assumption of Mary, and the Coronation of Mary. We will be praying four decades of the Rosary.

We enter the Joyful Mysteries, rejoicing in the wonder of the Incarnation. At the Annunciation, Mary receives the angel’s message and responds with her humble “yes,” and the Word becomes flesh within her.

At the Nativity, the Savior is born in humility yet shines forth as the Light of the World. In the Presentation at the Temple, Mary and Joseph offer the Child to the Father, and Simeon and Anna rejoice to see God’s promise fulfilled.
