The Glorious Mysteries

THE FIVE GLORIOUS Mysteries.

The Glorious Mysteries help us to think of the glorious Resurrection of Jesus
and the Crowning of Mary as Queen of Heaven. They are:

1. The Resurrection of Jesus
2. The Ascension of Jesus into heaven.
3. The Descent of the Holy Spirit
4. Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary
5. Crowning of the Blessed Virgin Mary

          We recall how Jesus rose from the tomb on Easter morning. The Divine Prince begins a new life that has no end. The Five Wounds shines like the five gems. He appears to His Mother and changes her sorrow into inexpressible delight and joy.

          MARY, lovely Queen of Heaven, I love you for the joy you felt when Jesus arose from the grave in glory and showed Himself to you.

          Help me to love Jesus with a love like yours on earth, that I may be happy with Him and you in heaven.

          We pray this mystery to ask for the grace to rise from the grave of sin, and bad habits to a new life of grace.

          We recall how Jesus blesses His beloved Mother and the Apostles for the last time. Then before their very eyes He ascends into heave; with sadness but still with infinite joy, they watch Him go.

          MARY, lovely Queen of Heaven, I love you for the joy you felt when you saw Jesus ascend into heaven forty days after His Resurrection,

         Never let my heart look for the joys of this world, but for the true joys of heaven.

          We pray this mystery that we always walk in such a way that our path will lead us to heaven.

          We recall how Mary, the Apostles and holy women prayed for the coming of the Holy Spirit. On Pentecost morning, He came down upon them and enkindled in their hearts the fire of Divine Love. I too must invoke Him. Without Him, I can accomplish nothing good. He dispenses all graces.

          MARY, lovely Queen of Heaven, I love you for the joy you felt when, on the tenth day after His Ascension, Jesus sent the Holy Spirit upon you and the disciples who were praying in Jerusalem.

          I ask the Holy Spirit to visit me, with His grace and to make me holy.

          We pray this mystery that the Holy Spirit may enlighten and strengthen us always and impart to us His Seven Gifts.

We recall how Jesus has taken His Mother to heaven with body and soul as a generous reward for her devoted love to Him while on earth. Mary, my Mother, receive my poor soul at the hour of my death and lead it to Thy Divine Son, my Judge.

 MARY, lovely Queen of Heaven, I love you for the joy you felt when you were taken to heaven, body and soul, by the angels.  Pray for me, a sinner, now and at the hour of my death that I may die happily in your arms

We pray this mystery that we may be granted the grace of final perseverance in a virtuous life and a happy death.

 MARY, lovely Queen of Heaven, I love you for the joy you felt when you were crowned Queen of Heaven and earth by the Blessed Trinity.

From the throne of your glory, look upon me, your loving child, and keep me ever under your mantle so that I may one day join Jesus and you in heaven.
