First Mystery: The Baptism of the Lord

The Baptism of the Lord card
“This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.”Matthew 3:17

Jesus is baptized by John in the Jordan. The heavens open, the Spirit of God descends upon Him like a dove, and the voice of the Father is heard.

Fruit of the mystery: Openness to the Holy Spirit

The Memorare

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession was left unaided.

Inspired by this confidence, I fly to you, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to you I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, do not despise my petitions, but in your mercy hear and answer me. Amen.
