Mysteries of the Holy Rosary

There were originally three sets of mysteries: The Joyful Mysteries, The Sorrowful Mysteries, and The Glorious Mysteries.

On October 16, 2002, almost 600 years after the original Mysteries of the rosary were established, Pope John Paul II proposed adding a new set of mysteries called The Luminous Mysteries (the Mysteries of Light).
