Joyful Mysteries
First Mystery: The Annunciation

“Behold, the servant of the Lord; let it be done to me according to your word.”Luke 1:38
The angel Gabriel is sent by God to a virgin of Nazareth named Mary and tells her she will conceive by the power of the Holy Spirit and bear a Son, who will be called the Son of the Most High. Mary gives her humble, free consent.
Fruit of the mystery: Humility
The Glory Be
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
