Summary

We journey through the heart of our faith as we pray the final Sorrowful Mystery and enter the Glorious Mysteries. We behold the Crucifixion, where Christ’s boundless love is poured out upon the Cross for the redemption of the world. We rejoice in the Resurrection, where sin and death are conquered and life is made new. We gaze toward the Ascension, where Christ returns to the Father, preparing a place for us in the glory of heaven. Today’s focus is the mysteries of the Crucifixion, the Resurrection, and the Ascension. We will be praying three decades of the Rosary.
