\nThe Presentation of the Lord<\/em>\/Fra Angelico<\/p>\n

Since we talked about it yesterday<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Here is a podcast of The Joyful Mysteries of the Holy Rosary<\/a>:<\/p>\n

The Annunciation<\/a>
\nThe Visitation<\/a>
\nThe Birth of Our Lord<\/a>
\nThe Presentation<\/a>
\nThe Finding of our Lord in the Temple<\/a><\/p>\n

Hit the link for illustration and lessons \u2013 mostly<\/em> thanks to the remarkable Deacon Greg<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll try to record the other four mysteries before Ash Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Before each mystery, I make a very brief note of relevant scripture; literally a line \u2013 whatever line pops into my head as I\u2019m praying \u2013 from the scripture that relates to a part of the mystery. It\u2019s just how I have always prayed the rosary, a way to add to the contemplative nature of it.<\/p>\n

Although I was not taught the rosary with it, I\u2019ve taken my Li\u2019l Bro Thom\u2019s advice and included the \u201cFatima addendum\u201d at the end of each decade, which goes \u201cOh, my Jesus, forgive us our sins. Save us from the fires of hell. Lead all souls to heaven, especially those most in need of thy mercy.\u201d<\/p>\n

As I\u2019ve said before, feel free to invite your favorite saints and holy men and women<\/a> \u2013 even the archangels or your guardian angel \u2013 to pray the rosary with you. It\u2019s nice to have company!<\/p>\n
