Day 280: The Joyful and Luminous Mysteries

From The Rosary in a Year (with Fr. Mark-Mary Ames) Ascension

We conclude the Joyful Mysteries and follow into the Luminous Mysteries as Christ’s mission is revealed. In the Finding of Jesus in the Temple, He shows Himself to be about His Father’s work. At the Baptism in the Jordan, the Spirit descends and the Father proclaims Him as the beloved Son. At the Wedding at Cana, He performs His first miracle, revealing His glory. In the Proclamation of the Kingdom, He announces the Good News and calls all to conversion. These mysteries encourage us to seek Him with faith, to listen to His Word, and to follow Him more closely each day. Today’s focus is the mysteries of the Finding of Jesus in the Temple, the Baptism of Jesus, the Wedding at Cana, and the Proclamation of the Kingdom and Call to Conversion. We will be praying four decades of the Rosary.
