The Baptism of Jesus

Closing Luminous Prayers
Hail Holy Queen
Hail, Holy Queen, Mother of Mercy, our life, our sweetness and our hope.
To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve. To thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley of tears.
Turn, then, most gracious advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us, and after this, our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.
V. Pray for us, O Holy Mother of God.
R. That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
Prayer After the Rosary
O God, whose only-begotten Son, by His life, death and resurrection, has purchased for us the rewards of eternal life; grant, we beseech Thee, that by meditating upon these mysteries of the most holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary, we may imitate what they contain and obtain what they promise, through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.
V. May the divine assistance remain always with us. R. Amen.
V. And may the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. R. Amen.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Deepening Your Prayer Experience
When I first visited the village, I noticed how the atmosphere changes near the Luminous Garden. While the Joyful and Sorrowful mysteries are deeply rooted in tradition, the medjugorje luminous rosary offers something unique because it focuses on the "active" life of Jesus. It was St. John Paul II who gave us these mysteries in 2002, and seeing them depicted in the beautiful bronze reliefs behind St. James Church helps you visualize Christ not just as a baby or a suffering savior, but as a teacher and a friend.
If you are physically there, you’ll find that the Luminous Garden is a place of deep silence. Even when hundreds of pilgrims are present, everyone seems to respect the "Mir" (peace) of the space. Praying the medjugorje luminous rosary while walking from station to station allows you to slow down. I found that I wasn't just "saying" prayers; I was living them. Each bronze relief tells a story—from the wedding at Cana to the Transfiguration—and they serve as a reminder that Jesus wants to be involved in our everyday moments, our celebrations, and our struggles.
You don’t have to be in Bosnia to experience the grace of the medjugorje luminous rosary. You can create your own "garden" in your heart. I suggest finding a quiet corner, perhaps with a candle or a small statue of the Gospa, and moving through the mysteries slowly. Don’t rush the Hail Marys. Instead, try to imagine yourself standing at the Jordan River or sitting at the table during the Last Supper. The goal of the medjugorje luminous rosary is to help us see the "Light of the World" through Mary’s eyes. This mental pilgrimage can be just as fruitful as standing on the soil of Medjugorje itself.
By spending time with these mysteries, we respond to the Queen of Peace's call to put prayer at the center of our lives. It is a journey of light that never truly ends as long as we keep our hearts open to Him. Whether you are praying the medjugorje luminous rosary for your family, for peace in the world, or for your own personal conversion, know that the Gospa is walking every step with you. This extended reflection ensures that our hearts are as prepared as our voices when we enter into these sacred mysteries of light.
