We then follow him in the Carrying of the Cross, sharing in his burden and the weight of his sacrifice. At the Crucifixion, we stand before the Cross and contemplate the mercy poured out for our salvation. Finally, we rejoice in the Resurrection, when Christ conquers death and opens the way to eternal life. These mysteries remind us that from suffering comes redemption, and through the cross comes everlasting hope. Today’s focus is the mysteries of the Crowning with Thorns, Carrying of the Cross, Crucifixion, and the Resurrection. We will be praying four decades of the Rosary.
