Summary

Closing out the Joyful Mysteries and moving into the Luminous Mysteries, we behold Christ revealed as the beloved Son of the Father. The Finding of Jesus in the Temple, the Baptism of Jesus, and the Wedding Feast at Cana each reveal Christ’s divine identity and mission in a new way—first as a child proclaiming His Father’s work, then as the Beloved Son beginning His ministry, and finally as the miracle-worker who manifests His glory. In these mysteries, we are invited to trust in God’s plan, to follow Christ with faith, and to obey His call in our lives. Today’s focus is the mysteries of the Finding of Jesus in the Temple, the Baptism of Jesus, and the Wedding Feast at Cana. We will be praying three decades of the Rosary.
