The 3rd Glorious Mystery

The 3rd Glorious Mystery of the Rosary - Pentecost,The Descent of the Holy Spirit.

The Apostles were fearful behind the locked door of the Upper Room until the Holy Spirit enlightened them with the fire of His love.

Holy Spirit please replace our fears, our doubts, weakness and uncertainties with a stronger faith, trust, confidence and love.Guide us through the darkness with your light.

Reflections on the Visitation-Rev. Msgr. Vaghi

"After Mary's 'fiat', moved by inner promptings of the Holy Spirit, she traveled to the hill country 'in haste'(Lk 1:39). It was the 1st thing Mary did after the Annunciation. There is a sense of urgency in the air as this young girl, our Blessed Mother, hastens with child into the Judean hills, a journey of some 130 miles from Nazareth, to visit her elder cousin, who was also with child in her time of need. It is a mission of love.
- Rev. Msgr. Peter J. Vaghi
