"At the center of this unfolding sequence of the glory of the Son and the Mother, the Rosary sets before us ... Pentecost, which reveals the face of the Church as a family gathered together with Mary, enlivened by the powerful outpouring of the Spirit and ready for the mission of evangelization. The contemplation ... ought to lead the faithful to an ever greater appreciation of their new life in Christ, lived in the heart of the Church, a life of which the scene of Pentecost itself is the great “icon”. – Pope John Paul II, Oct 16, 2002, Apostolic Letter Rosarium Virginis Mariae
