Including the Mysteries of Light
Scriptural meditations on the 20 mysteries of the Rosary
This booklet is intended for those coming to the Rosary for the first time, and those who are already familiar with it. It explains everything about the Rosary, how the 'mysteries' are prayed Rosary beads used and various customs attached to the prayer. It also explains the practical steps of saying the Rosary, with helpful instructions and all the various prayers that are used. The booklet contains scripture passages to aid contemplation of each of the Mysteries, including the recently introduced Mysteries of Light (or Luminous Mysteries).
This new Rosary book responds to John Paul II's call to rediscover the Rosary. The inspired recommendations of his Apostolic Letter Rosarium Virginis Mariae (2002) are woven throughout. A final section considers why it is important to rediscover the Rosary.
