Summary
Lifting up our hearts to the final Glorious Mysteries, we rejoice in the Descent of the Holy Spirit, who fills the Apostles with courage and ignites the Church with divine power. We then behold the Assumption of Mary, taken body and soul into heavenly glory, a sign of the promise awaiting all who are faithful to Christ. Finally, we celebrate the Coronation of Mary as Queen of Heaven and Earth, where she reigns beside her Son, interceding for us with a mother’s love. Today’s focus is the mysteries of the Descent of the Holy Spirit, the Assumption of Mary, and the Coronation of Mary. We will be praying three decades of the Rosary.
