First Glorious Mystery
The Resurrection
“You need not be amazed! You are looking for
Jesus of Nazareth, the one who was crucified.
He has been raised up; he is not here.
See the place where they laid him.”
The Church proclaims that Christ is risen, not
Christ has risen, because the event is not one
that is rooted in time. Through the resurrection of
Christ, we rise to eternal life. Eternity has cleaved
into time.
Fruit of the mystery: Faith

1.The Resurrection
The truth of Jesus' divinity is
confirmed by his Resurrection.
The Resurrection of the
crucified one shows that he
was truly. Jesus "I AM", the
Son of God and God himself.”
Jesus rises triumphant over
sin and death, and restores
the relationship of the human
race with the Father.
Matthias Grunewald, The Resurrection of
Christ, Isenheim Altar, 1515. Colmar

2.** Peace to you
“Christ is risen, alleluia!”
Peace be to you, Peace be
to all ! Let nothing
disturb your peace!
Peace be in your hearts
and in your lives. May
peace be the everlasting
gift of your apostolate.”
(Gobbi)

Agnolo Bronzino,Resurrection. 1550

3. Christ is risen. On the left, we
see King David, Solomon and Moses; on the Christ did not emerge
right are the three prophets. Beneath alone from the grave.
Christ’s feet are the gates of Hell, shattered Together with Himself He
and broken.
lifted all Humanity.
Christ is risen from the
dead conquering death,
and bestowing life on
those in the grave. Let us
celebrate this greatest of
all festivals, filled with joy
and gladness.
Let us warmly greet those
we meet and treat them all
like brothers and sisters. In
His rising all is grace.

4. The three Marys at the tomb “Let us keep
watch in
hope, in
prayer, and in
expectation.
Keep burning
the light of
confidence
and of the
certainty of
his glorious
Annibale Carracci, The Three Marys at the Tomb, return.”
1590 Hermitage. St. Petersburg. (Gobbi)

5.***Jesus appears to his Mother
Beloved children, keep watch with
me in expectation:
be strong in your faith,
be firm in the hope,
and be ardent in love.” (Gobbi)
We should try to experience
her joy by realizing that we too,
will rise up from the dead, to be
with Him forever. Pray that
we always work towards this
end every day of our lives.
Juan de Flandes, Christ appearing to his
mother, 1496, Metropolitan. New York.

6*. Jesus appears to Mary “And so it happened that the
Magdaleine. woman who stayed behind to
seek Christ was the only one to
see him. For perseverance is
essential to any good deed.”
(St. Gregory the Great)
She is the example of great
forgiveness and great love. She
grasped the truth of God’s love
for human beings and spent her
life bearing witness to that love.
It is said that of all the songs of
the saints, that of Mary
Magdalene is the sweetest and
strongest because her love was
so great.

7**. The Supper at Emmaus
The table at Emmaus, with the bread and wine, becomes an
Altar, where the first sacrifice of the Eucharist took place.

Caravaggio, The Supper at Emmaus,
1601. London National Gallery

8.*** Behind closed doors. This scene shows a
unique aspect of Christianity: God’s search for man instead
of man’s search for God. Jesus wants to pass through closed
doors and meet us in our hidings, sins, weaknesses, and
doubts, to offer us Peace---- ‘Shalom’.

Duccio di Buoninsegna,
Christ Appears to the
Apostles. 1308. Siena.

9.* The Incredulity of St. Thomas
He shows them His wounds. We should also be
continuously reminded of the tragic results of our
sins.
“My children,
the most
precious gift
you have is
faith. Your faith
must not be
hidden: it must
be your main
Caravaggio, The Incredulity of motivation in
St. Thomas. 1600. Neues
Palais. Potsdam
your life.”

10. “My Lord and My God”
“The disbelief of Thomas has
done more for our faith than the
belief of the other disciples.
Faith is the proof of what cannot
be seen. What is seen give
knowledge, not faith.
‘Blessed are those who have not
seen and have belief’ apply to us,
but only if we follow up our faith
with good works. The true
believer practices what he
believes.” (St. Gregory the Great)

The ( National ) Rosary For the Evangelization of
(Nations)
1. Fatima Prayer: To Eucharistic Jesus, source of all
evangelization.
“O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell,
and lead all souls to heaven, especially those in most need of
thy mercy.”
2. Invocation of the Holy Spirit: Principal agent of
evangelization.
“Come, Holy Spirit! Fill the hearts of the (National) people and
enkindle in them the fire of your love! Come by means of the
powerful intercession of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, your
well-beloved Spouse.”
3. Prayer to Our Lady of ( Nation ): Star of the new
evangelization.

(National) people to Jesus, the fruit of thy womb.

sufferings, deliver them from all evil, and fill them with your
love.”

Second Glorious Mystery
The Ascension
Then after speaking to them, the
Lord Jesus was taken into
Heaven and took his seat at
God’s right hand.

Fruit of the Mystery: Hope

1. Jesus appeared to his disciples at the lake of Galilee
He said to them, Cast to the right of the boat, and you will have a catch.

Konrad Witz 1445
The Miraculous
Draught of Fishes
Musee d’Art.
Geneva.

2. The Primacy of Peter
“Simon, son of John, do you love me?” “ Feed my Sheep”.
Lesson for all: If you want to be an instrument of divine love, you
have to be humble, and realize how weak you are. Jesus is asking
Peter for heroic love. Our own petty love is not enough

Raphael, pasce Ovea Meas, 1514.
Victoria and Albert Museum. London.

3***. The Great Commission
The whole Church
is apostolic. The
Christian vocation
is of its nature, a
vocation to the
apostolate “to
spread the
Kingdom of Christ
over all the earth.”
Charity, drawn
from the Eucharist
is always the soul
of the whole
apostolate.
Duccio Buoninsegna 1308 Great Commission
Museo dell’Opera del Duomo Siena. (Catechism)

4.* The Ascension
“If you love Me, you
would rejoice that I
am going to the
Father.” If He
enters into His
glorious kingdom,
it is to prepare a
place for us there.
He promises to
return one day to
take us with Him.

5**. The Ascension
“I am with you always
even to the end of
time.” In the Eucharist
Jesus remains always
with us.
“Jesus ascended into
heaven to help you live here
below; to be in the world
but not of the world.”
(Gobbi)
Garofald 1510-20
Galleria. Nazionale.

6. I leave with you my Mother
Jesus: “I leave with.you in my stead my
own Mother as your Protectress,
Consoler and Advocate, and as your
Mother, whom you are to hear and obey
in all things. He who knows my Mother,
knows Me; he who hears Her, hears
Me; and who honors Her, honors Me.
All of you shall have Her as your
Mother. She shall answer doubts, solve
your difficulties; in Her, those who seek
Me shall always find Me; for I shall
remain in Her until the end of the
world.” (Mary of Agreda)
Mantegna, The Ascension, Uffizi, Florence.

The Holy Trinity declared to the throng 7. The Protectress
of adoring angels and saints: “This is the Protectress
of the Church and the
Intercessor of the
faithful. Whoever shall
call upon her from his
heart and obtain her
intercession, shall
secure for himself
eternal life. What she
asks of Us shall be
granted.”
(Mary of Agreda)

Giotto, The Ascension.
1305-13. CGFA

8.* Help us to do your work
“In the world, there will reign
the one and only Conqueror of
sin and death, the King of the
entire created universe, Jesus
Christ.” (Gobbi)

Help us to do your work,
spreading the good news,
to all the world, and
comforting those who
suffer.
Rembrandt, The Asension, 1636,
Alte pinakothek. Munich.

9. Pray for missionaries
Learn that Jesus is Lord of
Heaven and earth and all
authority belongs to Him.
There is no authority permitted
without His consent. Pray for
those in authority, for the leaders
of government.

Pray for missionaries that they
will be faithful in teaching the
gospel of Jesus, and will teach
people the means of salvation.

10.*** Christ will come again.
“I have announced to you that the end of the times and the
coming of Jesus in glory is very near. The first sign is the
spread of errors which lead to the loss of faith. The second
sign is the outbreak of wars, violence, hatred and natural
catastrophes.”
‘When you see
these things
taking place,
know that your
liberation is
near.’ (Gobbi)

Third Glorious Mystery
Descent of the Holy Spirit

All were filled with the Holy Spirit. They
began to express themselves in foreign
tongues and made bold proclamation as the
Spirit prompted them.

Fruit of the Mystery:
Love of God & Charity

1. Mother of the new Evangelization.
Vatican II describes Mary’s
prayer at the Pentecost as a
petition for the whole
Church to receive the Holy
Spirit.
With Mary’s ‘Yes’ at the
Annunciation, the Holy
Spirit conceived the body
of Christ in her womb. With
Mary’s prayerful
intercession at Pentecost,
the same Spirit descend
upon the apostles to form
the Mystical Body of Christ,
the Church.
Mosaic of the Pentecost,
Rosary Basilica. Lourdes,
France.

2.**** The Holy Spirit is the “Principal
agent of Evangelization”.
The Holy Spirit filled the
Apostles with Truth and Love.
They were infused the
Seven gifts of the Holy
Spirit: Wisdom, Knowledge,
Understanding, Piety, Fear,
Counsel, and Fortitude.
By this blessing, the Twelve
were transformed into truly
apostolic founders and
missionaries. This event marks
the birth of the Church.

3.** Evangelization is the work of the
Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit prepares
men and goes out to them
with his grace, in order to
draw them to Christ.
The Spirit manifests the
risen Lord to them, recalls
his word to them and opens
their minds to the
understanding of his Death
and Resurrection.
(Catechism)

4. Missionary fruitfulness depends on prayer.
“If we are to understand the
mission of the Church, we must
go back to the Upper Room.
This icon of the nascent Church
should be a constant source of
inspiration for every Christian.
Apostolic and missionary
fruitfulness is not principally
due to programs and pastoral
methods that are cleverly drawn
up and efficient, but is the result
of the community`s constant
prayer.”
(Pope Benedict XVI)

5.**** Invitation to CENACLE with Mary
“I invite the whole church to
gather together in a continuous
prayer made
with me and through me, in
order to obtain the gift of a new
and second Pentecost for the
Church and for all humanity.”
My Immaculate Heart must
now become the new and
spiritual CENACLE in which
you must all gather together to
obtain the gift of the Second
Pentecost.”
(Gobbi)

6.** Come, Holy Spirit!
“My Immaculate Heart is the
golden door through which the
Holy Spirit passes to come to you
and bring you to the Second
Pentecost.
And so I invite you to repeat often:
“Come, Holy Spirit,
come by means of the powerful
intercession of the Immaculate
Heart of Mary, your well-beloved
Spouse.”
(Gobbi)

7. Cenacle with Mary to invoke the
descent of the Holy Spirit upon nations
“Come Holy Spirit!
Come and transform the
hearts of all your people! The
new era will come only as a
gift of the Holy Spirit, not as
the work of man.”
(Gobbi)
Popes Benedict, John Paul
II and Paul VI have called
repeatedly for a new out-
pouring of the Holy Spirit on
the People of God. We need a
golden age of the Holy spirit
for the second
Evangelization of nations.

8. We pray for
the world
There is an old
man at the centre
of the Icon who
symbolizes the
world. He reminds
us that we do not
pray for ourselves
alone, but for the
entire world.
Our prayer helps
to transform not
only ourselves, but
also our friends,
neighbours, and
the world.

9.**** Apostles of these last times:
“Be my apostles, in
spreading the one
and only light of
Christ everywhere.
Be my apostles, in
spreading my light.

Fight with prayer
and penance. Let
the Rosary be your
victorious weapon.”
(Gobbi)
Duccio di Buoninsegna, 1308. Siena.

10 New union with GOD
“Blessed is the soul which sighs and
aspires after this blessing and seeks
to participate in this divine fire
which enkindles, enlightens and
purifies and raises it up to new
existence and A NEW UNION
WITH GOD.
As your true and loving Mother, I
want you to have this happiness. I
urge you to prepare your heart and
maintain an unshatterable inner
peace and calm, no matter what
happens to you.” (Mary of Agreda)

Fourth Glorious Mystery

A great sign appeared in the sky, a woman
clothed with the sun, with the moon under
her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve
stars.

A tender devotion for so good a Mother.
(St. Louis de Montfort)

1. Death of the Virgin

hour of death, making me their
Advocate in memory of my
happy Transition, shall be
under my special protection and
intercession at that hour.
The surest pledge of a good
death is a good life, a life in
which the heart is freed and
detached from earthly love.”
(Mary of Agreda)

3. Look to Paradise “Paradise is your true
goal. You have not been
made for this earthly life

and higher, until you live in
my Immaculate Heart

You live in the world but

6.* Shower of Graces
“Today, I am causing a shower of
graces to fall upon you all, my
