The Crucifixion, Resurrection, and Ascension reveal the fullness of God’s saving plan. In the Crucifixion, suffering is transformed into victory; in the Resurrection, death is overcome by life; and in the Ascension, humanity is lifted into communion with God. In these mysteries, we are called to embrace the Cross, to rejoice in the triumph of life, and to live each day with the hope of eternal glory. Today’s focus is the mysteries of the Crucifixion, the Resurrection, and the Ascension. We will be praying three decades of the Rosary.

Episode: Day 272: The Sorrowful and Glorious Mysteries
Date: September 29, 2025
Host: Fr. Mark-Mary Ames, CFR / Ascension
In Day 272 of The Rosary in a Year podcast, Fr. Mark-Mary Ames guides listeners through the transition from the Sorrowful Mysteries into the first of the Glorious Mysteries. The episode specifically meditates on the Fifth Sorrowful Mystery—the Crucifixion—followed by the First and Second Glorious Mysteries: the Resurrection and the Ascension. The experience is prayerful and contemplative, weaving the traditional Rosary structure with the intent to deepen the listener’s relationship with Jesus and Mary.
The episode maintains a reverent, peaceful, and encouraging tone, marked by gentle repetition of ancient prayers. Fr. Mark-Mary’s pastoral warmth is present, providing a sense of spiritual companionship and shared devotion.
This episode exemplifies the core mission of The Rosary in a Year podcast: to nurture a daily habit of prayer through guided meditation on the central mysteries of Christ’s life, death, and resurrection, in union with Mary. By praying the end of the Sorrowful Mysteries and introducing the Glorious Mysteries, listeners are invited to journey from sorrow to hope, experiencing the transformative power of the Rosary as a community united in faith.
