Fifth Joyful Mystery

Let Us Reflect:

The Boy Jesus remained in the temple with the learned men for three days, listening to them and asking them questions.

“And it came to pass, that, after three days, they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, hearing them, and asking them questions. And all that heard Him were astonished at His wisdom and His answers. And seeing Him... His Mother said to Him: Son, why hast Thou done so to us? Behold Thy father and I have sought Thee sorrowing.” (Luke 2:46-48)

Let Us Pray:

We offer Thee, O Lord Jesus, this decade in honor of Thy Finding in the Temple among the learned men by Our Lady, after She had lost Thee, and we ask Thee, through this mystery and through the intercession of Thy Blessed Mother, to convert us and help us amend our lives and also to convert all sinners, heretics, schismatics and idolaters.
