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
Angel of God
Angel of God, my guardian dear, to whom God’s love commits me here, ever this day be at my side, to light and guard, to rule and guide. Amen.
