About this Blog for the SUV Calss of 2016

Following a schedule initiated in April 2015, weekly posts on this blog highlight the prayer/intention of every student in the SUV 7th grade class. Prayers and intercessions are original works of the students. Their intentions are arranged over the course of one year to coincide with the feast days of their Patron Saints (chosen in the sacrament of Confirmation). Other intentions appeal to Guardian Angels or are especially fitting on special days of recognition, as indexed in the label column to the right of the blog page.

Prayers are posted here so that they can be observed remotely with intent to grow as a spiritual community through the power of collective thought.

The Joyful Mysteries of the Rosary

The Rosary helps us to pray to Jesus through Mary. The four sets of  mysteries, are prayed on the following days":
 
Joyful Mysteries -  Monday & Saturday
Sorrowful Mysteries - Tuesday & Friday
Glorious Mysteries - Wednesday & Sunday
Luminous Mysteries - Thursday
 
The Joyful Mysteries are:  
  1. The Annunciation - Mary learns that she has been chosen to be the mother of Jesus.
  2. The Visitation - Mary visits Elizabeth, who tells her that she will always be remembered.
  3. The Nativity - Jesus is born in a stable in Bethlehem.
  4. The Presentation - Mary and Joseph take the infant Jesus to the Temple to present him to God.
  5. The Finding of Jesus in the Temple - Jesus is found in the Temple discussing his faith with the teachers.
The Loyola Press is the source for this post, and guide to praying the rosary.
