  <itunes:subtitle>Together with Fr. Mark-Mary, we pray the final Glorious Mysteries and rejoice in the triumph of God’s grace. At Pentecost, the Holy Spirit descends upon the Apostles, filling them with courage and strengthening the Church for its mission. In the Assumption, Mary is taken body and soul into the fullness of heaven. In the Coronation, Mary is exalted as Queen of Heaven and Earth, crowned with glory by the Blessed Trinity. These mysteries invite us to live in the Spirit, to trust in the life to come, and to place ourselves under Mary’s loving care as she leads us closer to her Son. Today’s focus is the mysteries of the Descent of the Holy Spirit, the Assumption of Mary, and the Coronation of Mary. We will be praying three decades of the Rosary.

  <itunes:subtitle>As we continue focusing our decades of the Rosary on the persons we’re praying to, Fr. Mark-Mary shares some insight on how to pray to the Trinity. We’re invited to sit at the table with the Trinity, offer them praise and adoration, or simply share in their exchange of love. Our meditation is guided by a quote from St. Elizabeth of the Trinity, whose longing to dwell wholly in God is echoed in today’s reflection. 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.
