The Fifteen Mysteries of the Rosary and their Associated Graces
“A mystery is a sacred thing which is difficult to understand….
The works of Our Lord and of His Blessed Mother can be rightly called
mysteries because they are so full of wonders and all kinds of
perfections and deep sublime truths which the Holy Spirit reveals to the
humble and simple souls who honor these mysteries” (The Secret of the Rosary, St. Louis de Montfort).
