The Rosary is one of the most beautiful prayers in the Catholic tradition. It's also one of the most commonly misunderstood, which is often the case for many of our Protestant brothers and sisters. Yet, it doesn't have to be. Put simply, the Rosary is a prayerful meditation on the life of Jesus Christ through the eyes of his mother.
I invite you, whether you are Catholic, Protestant, or other, to watch this beautiful video by our friends at Word on Fire. Today we pray the Joyful Mysteries. We meditate on five key events in the life of Jesus Christ through the eyes of his mother, the Virgin Mary.

In today's Office of Readings we encounter a reading from a homily by St. Melito of Sardis (d. 180 A.D.). He was the bishop of Sardis near Smyrna in western Anatolia, and a great authority in early Christianity. His work, "On the Passover," sets the Last Supper and the Passion in the context of the Jewish Passover and thus relates Christianity to its roots in Judaism.
For a reflection, "The Easter praise of Christ," please click on the image.
Peace be with you!
