The Finding of the Child Jesus in the Temple
In the fifth joyful mystery we contemplate
how the Blessed Virgin Mary lost her Divine
Son who, without telling her or St. Joseph,
had stayed behind in Jerusalem. After a wearisome
search of three days she found Him in the
Temple listening to the Doctors of the Law
and asking them questions.
Let us beseech Mary, comforter of the afflicted,
to grant us fidelity, confidence and strength
amidst the many perplexities we encounter.
Our Father, Hail Mary (ten times), Glory
be to the Father, O my Jesus...
