Sorrowful Mysteries (Tuesdays & Fridays)
The Holy Rosary by Tabella
The Sorrowful Mysteries of The Holy Rosary: 1) The Agony in the Garden - Fruit of the Mystery: Contrition and Conformity to the Will of God * "In his anguish, he prayed so fervently that his sweat became like great drops of blood falling on the ground. When he rose from prayer and returned to the disciples, he found them sleeping, exhausted by grief." (Luke 22:44-45) 2) The Scourging at the Pillar - Fruit of the Mystery: Purity and Mortification * "Then Pilate ordered that Jesus be scourged." (John 19:1) 3) Jesus is Crowned with Thorns - Fruit of the Mystery: Moral Courage * "They stripped him and put a scarlet robe on him, and after twisting some thorns into a crown, they placed it on his head and put a reed in his right hand. Then, bending the knee before him, they mocked him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” " (Matthew 27:28-29) 4) Jesus Carries The Cross - Fruit of the Mystery: Patience * "And, carrying the cross by himself, he went out to what is called the Place of the Skull (in Hebrew, “Golgotha”)." (John 19:17) 5) Jesus Dies on the Cross - Fruit of the Mystery: Salvation and Self-denial * "He cried out, “Father, into your hands I commend my spirit.” And with these words he breathed his last." (Luke 23:46)
