The mysteries of the Rosary from the Annunciation (Announcement of Christ's Conception) through the Crucifixion and on to the Resurrection and Ascension. All mysteries with the exception of two are Biblically based -- and there are many references to those two in the writings of the Early Church Fathers as well as the Bible.

Enjoy!
