PRAYERS TO OUR LADY OF QUADELUPE

Our Lady of Guadalupe, mystical rose, intercede for the Church, protect the Holy Father, help all who invoke You in their necessities. Since You are the ever Virgin Mary and Mother of the True God, obtain for us from Your Most Holy Son the grace of a firm and sure hope amid bitterness of life, as well as an ardent love and the precious gift of final perseverance.

Dearest Lady, fruitful Mother of Holiness, teach me Your ways of gentleness and strength. Hear my prayer, offered with deep felt confidence to beg this favor.

O Mary, conceived without sin, I come to your throne of grace to share the fervent devotion of your faithful Mexican children who call to Thee under the glorious title "Guadalupe" - the Virgin who crushed the serpent.

Queen of Martyrs, whose Immaculate Heart was pierced by seven swords of grief, help me to walk valiantly amid the sharp thorns strewn across my path. Invoke the Holy Spirit of Wisdom to fortify my will to frequent the Sacraments so that, thus enlightened and strengthened, I may prefer God to all creatures and shun every occasion of sin.

Help me, as a living branch of the Vine that is Jesus Christ, to exemplify His divine charity always seeking the good of others. Queen of Apostles, aid me to win souls for the Sacred Heart of my Savior. Keep my apostolate fearless, dynamic, and articulate, to proclaim the loving solitude of Our Father in Heaven so that the wayward may heed His pleading and obtain pardon, through the merits of Your Merciful Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.


Novena to the Virgin of Guadalupe

Say everyday for nine days.

Glory and protector of virgins, sinless Mother of God, entrance to the court of heaven, hope of earth and joy of heaven, lily among thorns, dove most beautiful, rod from Jesse's root, whose flower is healing for all mankind's wounds, tower that is proof against the enemy's assaults and star that is welcomed by the shipwrecked, protect us from our treacherous foe and guide us by your light.

Dispel the mists that make us loose the way, keep us safe from snares and traps, and lead to safety those who have gone off course.

Loving Mother, free of all stain of corruption, chosen by Him who broke the chains of dreaded death. In your kindness, grant that those who rejoice in you find their happiness in the radiance of the true light.

Increase our faith by your prayers, guide our wavering spirits with hope and strengthen them with charity.

Mother of God, cause and source of our hope, take away wars, afflictions, famine, plague and violence.

Relieve the sorrows of those in prison; listen to the prayers of the sick and give them the healing they long for.

Make friends of our enemies, calm the passions of evil men.

O Mary, loving Mother, give us your help in this special request.

Let us live forever praising your Son.

Then say one Our Father, one Hail Mary and one Glory Be.

Holy Mary, Virgin Mother of God, plead our cause. Amen.
