Second Mystery: The Wedding at Cana

“Whatever he says to you, do it.”John 2:5

At a wedding feast in Cana, Mary notices that the wine has run out and brings the need to her Son. At her word the servants obey Him, and Jesus works His first sign, changing water into wine.

Fruit of the mystery: To Jesus through Mary

Rosary Closing Prayer

O God, whose only begotten Son, by his life, death, and resurrection, has purchased for us the rewards of eternal life; grant, we pray, that meditating upon these mysteries of the Most Holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary, we may imitate what they contain and obtain what they promise, through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.
