The Institution of the Most Holy Eucharist. On October 16, 2002, Pope St. John Paul II added a new group of Mysteries-the “Luminous Mysteries”-to the Rosary. In Rosarium Virginis Mariae, where John Paul II proposed the additional Luminous Mysteries, he was at pains to point out that their inclusion was optional. No one is required to pray them, just as no one is required to pray the Rosary at all. It is a devotion, not a dogma. tinyurl.com/Tr...

Indeed it is the very fact that the Luminous Mysteries invite us to meditate on these sacraments-which of the other mysteries involve a sacrament?-that makes them worth praying. And indeed, what could be more Marian than to meditate upon the Wedding Feast of Cana, where Christ, prompted by his mother, performed his first public miracle, and where Mary instructed us to “do whatever He tells you”? Everything we learn from Our Lady comes back to this: Do whatever he tells you. That is worth meditating upon in the Rosary. John Paul II pointed this out in his apostolic letter-none of the other Mysteries of the Rosary involve Christ’s ministry itself. The Joyful Mysteries cover Christ’s conception to his twelfth year; the Sorrowful Mysteries cover Christ’s Passion; the Glorious Mysteries cover events subsequent to Christ’s death. Only in the Luminous Mysteries are we invited to meditate upon Christ’s earthly ministry. Christ’s incarnation, and Christ’s passion, and Christ’s resurrection, while lacking in nothing, were meant to be “completed,” as it were, by what he did here. He was baptized, he performed miracles, he sanctified marriage, he was transfigured, he brought us the Kingdom of God, and he gave us himself as food. Without these things, the rest of the story would have been for naught. Christ did no insignificant thing. And that is why it is well to pray the Luminous Mysteries.
