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 Glorious 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 Glorious Mysteries are:
  1. The Resurrection
    God the Father raises Jesus from the dead.
  2. The Ascension
    Jesus returns to his Father in heaven.
  3. The Coming of the Holy Spirit
    The Holy Spirit comes to bring new life to the disciples.
  4. The Assumption of Mary
    At the end of her life on earth, Mary is taken body and soul into heaven.
  5. The Coronation of Mary
    Mary is crowned as Queen of Heaven and Earth.

The Loyola Press is the source for this post, and guide to praying the rosary.
