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

• Day 344: The Glorious Mysteries

  Fr. Mark-Mary prays through the Glorious Mysteries, inviting us to trust more deeply in Jesus’ nearness and mercy. While meditating on the Resurrection, we look to Caravaggio’s Incredulity of St. Thomas and see Christ meeting our doubts with tenderness. In the Ascension, He becomes even more present to us without spatial limitations. At Pentecost, Jean Restout’s depiction of Mary steady beneath the tongues of fire inspires us to welcome the Holy Spirit with renewed boldness. We contemplate Mary as the New Ark of the Covenant in her Assumption and rejoice in her loving intercession as Queen in her Coronation. Today’s focus is the Glorious Mysteries, and we’ll be praying the full Rosary. For the complete prayer plan, visit https://ascensionpress.com/riy.

• Day 343: The Sorrowful Mysteries

  Immersing ourselves in the Sorrowful Mysteries, Fr. Mark-Mary directs us to ponder Jesus’s final moments on earth. We see through Jesus’s eyes in the Agony in the Garden as He suffers yet continues to trust the Father. We look through Mary’s perspective during the Scourging at the Pillar, entering into her sorrow and offering our own suffering alongside hers. In the Crowning with Thorns, Jesus endures mockery and pain while reminding us of our unshakeable identity as beloved sons and daughters of the Father. As He carries His Cross, Jesus feels the weight of our sins yet reveals a hope that perseveres. And at the Crucifixion, even in His final breath, Jesus is forgiving us from the cross. Today’s focus is the Sorrowful Mysteries, and we’ll be praying the full Rosary. For the complete prayer plan, visit https://ascensionpress.com/riy.

• Day 342: The Joyful Mysteries

  As we enter into today’s meditation, Fr. Mark-Mary guides us through the Joyful Mysteries with reflections on grace, trust, and the hidden beauty of God’s work in our lives. We reflect on Mary’s humble courage at the Annunciation, the transforming joy of her encounter with Elizabeth, and the gentle invitation to draw close to Christ in the Nativity. We’re called to seek Jesus with the same relentless love shown by Mary and Joseph in the Finding in the Temple. God meets us in our littleness and invites us into deeper trust and wonder. Today’s focus is the Joyful Mysteries, and we’ll be praying the full Rosary. For the complete prayer plan, visit https://ascensionpress.com/riy.

  Together with Fr. Mark-Mary, we meditate on the Glorious Mysteries, drawing inspiration from St. Augustine and Mother Teresa. We contemplate the triumph of Christ and the joy of Heaven, reflect on what it means to hold fast to Jesus through charity, and give thanks for the “new wine” of the Holy Spirit poured into our hearts. We’re also reminded of Mary’s powerful and tender care as Queen who watches over her children. Today’s focus is the Glorious Mysteries, and we’ll be praying the full Rosary.
