We have reached the last volume of our collection Meditating on the Mysteries of the Rosary, and to close this sublime sequence, we bring you the Glorious Mysteries, which are the “mysteries of hope.”

The Rosary allows us to follow Jesus' journey from before his birth, with the mystery of the Annunciation. From there, we follow Jesus' birth, childhood, adult life, and ministry, and finally, his Passion and Death on the Cross.

Stricken by this pain, we arrive at the climax, which is the Resurrection of Our Lord and His Ascension into Heaven. The Glorious Mysteries also make very clear the importance of the Blessed Virgin's role in the History of Salvation, and the humility of her life on earth is exalted with her coronation as Queen of Angels and men.

It is a long journey, which we can relive every day, bringing us closer to Jesus and His Mother Mary Most Holy.
