Fr. Mark-Mary leads us in prayer with five decades of the Rosary, as we utilize the meditation "muscles" we've built up in each phase of the Rosary in a Year. You can find more resources for meditation on each of the mysteries, including Sacred Art, Saint Reflections, and Bible Verses under each episode in the Ascension App, to aid in your meditation. Today's focus is the Luminous Mysteries: the Baptism in the Jordan, the Wedding Feast at Cana, the Proclamation of the Kingdom and Call to Conversion, the Transfiguration, and the Institution of the Eucharist.
