The Holy Rosary (THE GLORIOUS MYSTERIES)

The Holy Rosary
THE GLORIOUS MYSTERIES

(Wednesdays and Sundays)

The Glorious Mysteries reveal the mediation of the great Virgin, still more abundant in fruitfulness. She rejoices in heart over the glory of her Son triumphant over death, and follows Him with a mother's love in His Ascension to His eternal kingdom; but, though worthy of Heaven, she abides a while on earth, so that the infant Church may be directed and comforted by her "who penetrated, beyond all belief, into the deep secrets of Divine wisdom" (St. Bernard).
     .....Pope Leo XIII
