‘The Rosary draws from the Gospel the declaration of its mysteries and its principal formulae it draws inspiration from the Gospel to suggest the attitude in which the faithful should recite it, commencing with the Angel's joyous salutation and the Virgin's religious acceptance.' (Paul VI, Apostolic Letter ‘Marialis Cultus', 2 February 1974) ‘Mary was definitively introduced into the mystery of Christ by this event: The Annunciation by the Angel ... By receiving this announcement, Mary was to become the "Mother of God" and the divine mystery of the Incarnation would be fulfilled in her.' (John-Paul II, Encyclical Letter ‘Redemptoris Mater', 25 March 1987)"
