The Joyful Mysteries are prayed on Mondays and Saturdays, and are an invitation to contemplate significant moments in the life of the Virgin Mary and the Incarnation of Jesus Christ. These mysteries are:
The Annunciation: The angel Gabriel tells Mary that she will be the mother of Jesus, which symbolizes the acceptance of the divine will.

The Visitation: Mary visits her cousin Elizabeth, who is pregnant with John the Baptist. This encounter reflects the joy of motherhood and the recognition of each one's mission.

The Birth of Jesus: The birth of the Savior in Bethlehem is celebrated, a moment of joy and humility that brings hope to the world.

The Presentation of the Child Jesus in the Temple: Mary and Joseph present Jesus in the Temple, complying with Jewish law. This event is a recognition of the divinity of Christ.

The Meeting of Jesus in the Temple: When Jesus, at the age of twelve, stays in the Temple, Mary and Joseph look for him. This mystery shows the wisdom of Jesus and the depth of Mary's maternal love.

Each of these mysteries invites us to meditate on the joy that faith and the closeness of God bring to people's lives.
