GLORIOUS MYSTERIES

FIRST GLORIOUS MYSTERY: THE RESURRECTION

LORD, WHEN YOU DIED ON GOOD FRIDAY, ALL SEEMED LOST. YOUR DISCIPLES HAD ABANDONED YOU. THOSE WHO REMAINED WITH YOU SAW YOU DIE IN AGONY, BUT THE WOMAN, WHO THROUGHOUT ETERNITY, YOU, THE LIVING GOD, WILL STILL CALL MOI'HER, DID NOT LOSE HOPE.

IN THIS DECADE, L,ORD, WE SHARE THE JOY OF OUR BLESSED MOTHER MARY AS WE MEDITATE ON YOUR FIRST MEETING AFTER YOUR RESURRECTION - THE DIVINE ONE, AND THE IMMACULATE ONE , SHARING A BOND WE WILL ONLY UNDERSTAND IN ETERNITY.

FOR THE LOVE THAT YOU BEAR OUR MOTHER, GRANT US THE GRACE TO BE ABLE TO SAY, TOGETHER WITH THOMAS, "MY LORD AND MY GOD" ESPECIALLY AT THOSE TIMES WHEN WE HAVE LOST HOPE.

SECOND GLORIOUS MYSTERY ~ THE ASCENSION

"GO OUT AND MAKE ALL NATIONS MY DISCIPLES; BAPTISE THEM, AND TEACH THEM TO OBEY WHAT I HAVE COMMANDED YOU. AND REMEMBER, I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS, TO THE END OF TIME" LORD, THE DISCIPLES EXPERIENCED MUCH FEAR WHEN YOU LEFT. WE TOO, EXPERIENCE WHAT YOUR DISCIPLES DID WHEN THEY SAW YOU ASCEND TO HEAVEN. BUT YOU SAY THE SAME TO US -- "I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS.." LORD, AS WE MEDITATE ON YOUR ASCENSION, WE ASK YOU TO BLESS ALL THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN ABANDONED, ALL THOSE WHO TURN TO DRUGS OR SUICIDE, BECAUSE THEY DO NOT OR CANNOT ACCEPT THAT YOU ARE WITH THEM. HELP THEM TO REACH OUT TO YOU.

THIRD GLORIOUS MYSTERY -- THE DESCENT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

"PEOPLE FROM MANY NATIONS, EVEN FOLK NOT OF JEWISH ORIGIN, ALSO HEARD IN THEIR OWN NATIVE TONGUES THE SAME JOYFUL PRAISE OF WONDERFUL THINGS WHICH GOD HAD DONE"

LORD, REFRESH US WITH YOUR HOLY SPIRIT EACH DAY SO THAT WE TOO MAY LIVE IN JOY AND PEACE. WHAT WE ASK FOR OURSELVES WE ALSO ASK FOR OUR FRIENDS AND FAMILIES_ GRANT US THE GRACE TO HELP BUILD A CUL'I'URE OF LIFE IN OUR PARISHES, COMMUNITIES AND WORKPLACES.

FOURTH GLORIOUS MYSTERY : THE ASSUMPTION

LORD, WITH 'FHE ANGELS AND SAINTS WE REJOICE AS WE MEDITATE ON THE BEAUTY OF OUR MOTHER, EVER HUMBLE YE'I' CHOSEN 'FO BE THE VESSEL OF GRACE AND INTERCESSION FOR ALL HER CHILDREN HERE ON EARTH.

WE OFFER THIS DECADE IN REPARATION FOR THE BLASPHEMIES HURLED AT THE IMMACULATE CONCEPTION, ESPECIALLY BY CHRISTIANS.

FIFTH GLORIOUS MYSTERY -- THE CORONATION OF OUR LADY

WE ARE ALL YOURS, OUR QUEEN, OUR MOTHER AND WE CONSECRATE ALL SINNERS AND THOSE WHO PARTICULARLY CHOOSE EVIL, TO YOUR IMMACULATE HEART, THAT THEY MAY BE CONVERTED.
