THE SECOND LUMINOUS MYSTERY
 
SELF-MANIFESTATION AT THE WEDDING AT CANA
LORD, GRANT ME THE GRACE OF FIDELITY
Our Father...

On the third day there was a wedding in Cana in Galilee, and the mother of
Jesus was there.  (John 2:1)  
Hail Mary...

Jesus and his disciples were also invited to the wedding.  (John 2:2)
Hail Mary...

When the wine ran short, the mother of Jesus said to him, "They have no
wine."  (John 2:3)  
Hail Mary...

(And) Jesus said to her, "Woman, how does your concern affect me? My hour
has not yet come."  (John 2:4)  
Hail Mary...

His mother said to the servers, "Do whatever he tells you."  (John 2:5)
Hail Mary...

Now there were six stone water jars there for Jewish ceremonial washings, each
holding twenty to thirty gallons.  Jesus told them, "Fill the jars with water." So
they filled them to the brim.  (John 2:6,7)  
Hail Mary...

Then he told them, "Draw some out now and take it to the headwaiter."  So they
took it.  (John 2:8)  
Hail Mary...

And when the headwaiter tasted the water that had become wine, without
knowing where it came from (although the servers who had drawn the water
knew), the headwaiter called the bridegroom...  (John 2:9)  
Hail Mary...

...and said to him, "Everyone serves good wine first, and then when people have
drunk freely, an inferior one; but you have kept the good wine until now."  
(John 2:10)  
Hail Mary...

Jesus did this as the beginning of his signs in Cana in Galilee and so revealed
his glory, and his disciples began to believe in him.  (John 2:11)  
Hail Mary...

O my Jesus, forgive us our sins.   
Save us from the fires of Hell;

especially those in most need
of Thy mercy.  Amen.
