The Luminous Mysteries

The First Luminous Mystery

THE BAPTISM IN THE RIVER JORDAN

(Fruit: Openness to the Holy Spirit)

Lord, may I remember my baptismal vows to love and honor You in everything I do. Lord, may I listen to the call to repentance from all those who follow in the steps of John the Baptist.

The Second Luminous Mystery

THE MIRACLE AT CANA

(Fruit: Find Jesus through Mary)

Lord, may Your miracles come upon those who truly need them so that we may all increase our faith in You. May I not ask for miracles to suit my worldly desires but instead see Your miracles as signs of Your presence in my life.

The Third Luminous Mystery

THE PROCLAMATION OF THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN AND THE CALL FOR CONVERSION

(Fruit: Repentance)

Lord, may I live in a constant state of conversion; always looking for ways I can better live according to Your teachings. Forgive me for the times I have focused more on worldly desires rather than the true happiness of Your Kingdom of Heaven.

The Fourth Luminous Mystery

THE TRANSFIGURATION

(Fruit: Desire for Holiness)

Lord, thank you for coming into this world as fully human so that we may form a personal relationship with You. May I never take Your teachings as mere guidance or philosophy from a learned teacher, but instead realize that these are the teachings of our Heavenly Father.

The Fifth Luminous Mystery

THE INSTITUTION OF THE EUCHARIST

(Fruit: Eucharistic Adoration)

Lord, increase my faith in Your true presence in the Holy Eucharist. May I never take the Eucharist for granted. May I have the awareness and humility not to receive You in an unworthy state of sin or with an unprepared heart.
