Mysteries of Light
(Thursday)
“By the sign of the Holy Cross…”, “In the name of the Father…”
“O God, whose only begotten Son obtained for us the prize of eternal salvation, with His life, death and resurrection, we ask you, in venerating the mysteries of the Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary, to live her teachings and attain the promises they contain.”
For the Pope and his intentions:
Creed
Our Father.
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come; thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; forgive our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass us; and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. Amen
In honor of God the Father who created us and created the Virgin Mary;
Hail Mary full of Grace the Lord is with thee; blessed are you among all women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen.”
“In honor of Jesus Christ, Son of God, Son of the Virgin Mary, our Redeemer; Hail Mary full of Grace…”
“In honor of the Holy Spirit, our sanctifying God, Spouse of the Virgin Mary;
Hail Mary full of Grace…”
Glory… Glory to the Father and the Son and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, now and forever, forever and ever. Amen.
“O my Jesus, forgive us, deliver us from the fire of hell, take all souls to Heaven and help especially those most in need”
“Bless the Holy Father the Pope, our diocesan bishop, sanctify the clergy Father Alexandre and our families, give us health, peace and eternal salvation.”
“O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to You.”
“Jesus meek and humble of heart, make our hearts like Yours.”
“Our Lady of Guadalupe, pray for us.”
“Saint Joseph, pray for us.”
“Saints Michael, Gabriel and Raphael Archangels, pray for us and defend us in the combat.”
INTENTIONS OF THE ROSARY
1) In the first luminous mystery we contemplate the Baptism of Jesus in the Jordan River
Mt 3:16-17: “After being baptized, Jesus came out of the water and heaven opened. And he saw the Spirit of God come down, like a dove, and come upon him. And from heaven came a voice saying, this is my beloved Son; In him is my pleasure.”
Word of the Lord…. Glory to you, Lord Jesus.
Lord, we honor your baptism for John. We ask you and the Blessed Mother for fidelity to the promises of our baptism.

His mother said to those who were serving, ‘Do whatever he tells you!'” Word of the Lord. Glory to you, Lord Jesus.

Salve Regina, Mater Misericordiae Vita, dulcedo, et spes nostra, salve.
Ad te clamamus, exsules, filii Evae.
Ad te suspiramus, gementes et flentes in hac lacrimarum valle.
Eia ergo, Advocata nostra, illos tuos misericordes oculos ad nos converte.
Et Iesum, benedictum fructum ventris tui, nobis post hoc exsilium ostend.
O clemens, O pia, O dulcis Virgo Maria.
All for Jesus, nothing without Mary!
