    Day 239: The Annunciation and the Visitation
    2025/08/27
    Fr. Mark-Mary invites us to dive deeper into our meditation while we pray with the Annunciation and the Visitation. As we revisit these familiar moments, we’re invited to take a new angle each time, meditating on different details, characters, or movements of the Spirit. Whether it’s Mary’s yes, the angel’s greeting, or Elizabeth’s joyful welcome, each prayer opens the door to new graces. We deepen our rhythm of prayer, asking God to help us fall in love with these mysteries all over again. Today’s focus is the mysteries of the Annunciation and the Visitation and we will be praying two decades of the Rosary. For the complete prayer plan, visit https://ascensionpress.com/riy.

    Day 238: The Assumption and Coronation of Mary

    Today we pray with the Fourth and Fifth Glorious Mysteries: the Assumption of Mary and her Coronation as Queen of Heaven and Earth. Fr. Mark-Mary reminds us that in the Assumption, we witness God’s faithfulness to Mary, and we renew our hope that, by the Holy Spirit, we too are destined for eternal glory. Her Magnificat becomes our pattern: rejoicing in what God has done, and trusting in what He will do. As we meditate on her Coronation, we honor Mary as both Queen and Mother, who prays that we might receive the grace to persevere in faith and echo her unwavering yes to God.

  • Day 237: The Ascension and the Descent of the Holy Spirit

    Day 237: The Ascension and the Descent of the Holy Spirit
    2025/08/25
    We pray with the Second and Third Glorious Mysteries: the Ascension of Jesus and the Descent of the Holy Spirit. As Jesus ascends into heaven, we reflect on the mystery of his closeness, how his union with the Father makes him even more present to each of us. Then, with Mary and the disciples in the Upper Room, we await the coming of the Holy Spirit in prayerful hope. The fire of Pentecost renews and transforms the fearful into bold proclaimers of the Gospel. We pray these decades of the rosary with them, asking for that same courage and renewal in our own lives. Today’s focus is the mysteries of the Ascension and the Descent of the Holy Spirit and we will be praying two decades of the Rosary.

  • Day 236: The Crucifixion and the Resurrection

    Day 236: The Crucifixion and the Resurrection
    2025/08/24
    We pray with the fifth Sorrowful Mystery, the Crucifixion and Death of Jesus, and the first Glorious Mystery, his Resurrection. At the Cross, we witness Christ’s total self-gift, his mercy toward the repentant thief, and the sorrow of Mary who remains faithfully at His side. Then we move to the empty tomb, where light bursts from darkness and Jesus, risen and still bearing his wounds, offers hope that God is working for good even through suffering. These mysteries invite us to deeper trust in Jesus’ victory over death. Today’s focus is the mysteries of the Crucifixion and the Resurrection and we will be praying two decades of the Rosary.

  • Day 235: The Crowning with Thorns and the Carrying of the Cross

    Day 235: The Crowning with Thorns and the Carrying of the Cross
    2025/08/23
    In prayer, we focus on the third Sorrowful Mystery, the Crowning with Thorns, and the fourth Sorrowful Mystery, the Carrying of the Cross. In the mockery of Jesus as King, we behold the profound humility and suffering He freely embraces. On the road to Calvary, we reflect on His encounter with Simon of Cyrene, who shares in the weight of the cross and meets salvation face to face. These mysteries draw us into deeper surrender as we say yes to carrying our own crosses each day in union with Christ. Today’s focus is the mysteries of the Crowning with Thorns and the Carrying of the Cross and we will be praying two decades of the Rosary.

    Day 234: The Agony in the Garden and the Scourging at the Pillar
    2025/08/22
    As we enter into the sorrowful mysteries of Christ’s Passion, we reflect on His agony in the garden and His scourging at the pillar. We see Jesus pleading with the Father in solitude, embracing the Father’s will despite the weight of sorrow, and freely choosing to suffer for our salvation. Through these mysteries, we are called to receive His sacrifice not with indifference, but with grateful hearts open to the transforming gift of His love. Today’s focus is the mysteries of the Agony in the Garden and the Scourging at the Pillar and we will be praying two decades of the Rosary.

  • Day 233: The Transfiguration and Institution of the Eucharist

    Day 233: The Transfiguration and Institution of the Eucharist
    2025/08/21
    Leading us in prayer, Fr. Mark-Mark reflects on the Transfiguration and the gift of the Eucharist as these moments reveal Jesus’ divine identity and His enduring presence. We witness Jesus revealed in glory before the apostles on the mountain, affirmed by the voice of the Father and flanked by Moses and Elijah as the fulfillment of the law and prophets. Then, at the Last Supper, we behold the depth of His love as He gives Himself entirely in the Eucharist. Today’s focus is the mysteries of the Transfiguration and Institution of the Eucharist and we will be praying two decades of the Rosary.
