Fr. Mark-Mary leads us in prayer with five decades of the Rosary, as we utilize the meditation "muscles" we've built up in each phase of the Rosary in a Year. You can find more resources for meditation on each of the mysteries, including Sacred Art, Saint Reflections, and Bible Verses under each episode in the Ascension App, to aid in your meditation. Today's focus is the Sorrowful Mysteries: the Agony in the Garden, the Scourging at the Pillar, the Crowning with Thorns, the Carrying of the Cross, and the Crucifixion.

Day 304: The Joyful Mysteries
Today we begin praying five mysteries, our final step of building up the decades before we move to the full rosary. As we walk through each set of mysteries, we use our now-strengthened meditation muscles, moving from one mystery to the next, following the story of Jesus’ childhood and Mary’s fiat. Today’s focus is the Joyful Mysteries. We will be praying five decades of the Rosary.

Day 303: The Glorious Mysteries
These Glorious Mysteries reveal the fullness of God’s promise. Christ reigns in glory, the Spirit strengthens His people, and Mary shares in her Son’s victory as our Mother and Queen. We are reminded that our true home is in heaven, where love endures and joy is everlasting. May these mysteries renew our hope and draw us closer to the heart of God. Today’s focus is the mysteries of the Ascension, the Descent of the Holy Spirit, the Assumption of Mary, and the Coronation of Mary. We will be praying four decades of the Rosary.

Day 302: The Sorrowful and Glorious Mysteries
The path of these mysteries leads from sorrow to joy, from the Cross to the empty tomb. In Christ’s Passion, we see the measure of His love. In His Resurrection, we see the promise of eternal life. These sacred moments remind us that no suffering is wasted, no darkness is final, for Christ has conquered all. As we contemplate these mysteries, we find strength to carry our own crosses, trusting that in Christ, every sorrow can be transformed by grace into glory. Today’s focus is the mysteries of the Crowning with Thorns, the Carrying of the Cross, the Crucifixion, and the Resurrection. We will be praying four decades of the Rosary.
