Guadalupe

First Day

Dearest Lady of Guadalupe, fruitful Mother
of holiness, teach me your ways
of gentleness and strength.
Hear my humble prayer offered with
heartfelt confidence to beg this favor......

Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory.

Second Day

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 you
under the glorious Aztec title of Guadalupe.
Obtain for me a lively faith to do your
Son’s holy will always: May His will
be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory.

Third Day

O Mary, whose Immaculate Heart was pierced
by seven swords of grief, help me to
walk valiantly amid the sharp thorns strewn
across my pathway. Obtain for me the
strength to be a true imitator of you.
This I ask you, my dear Mother.

Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory.

Fourth Day

Dearest Mother of Guadalupe, I beg you
for a fortified will to imitate your divine
Son’s charity, to always seek the good of
others in need. Grant me this,
I humbly ask of you.

O most holy Mother, I beg you to obtain for
me pardon of all my sins, abundant graces to
serve your Son more faithfully from now on,
and lastly, the grace to praise Him with you
forever in heaven.

Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory.

Sixth Day

Mary, Mother of vocations, multiply priestly
vocations and fill the earth with religious
houses which will be light and warmth for the
world, safety in stormy nights. Beg your
Son to send us many priests and religious.
This we ask of you, O Mother.

Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory.

Seventh Day

O Lady of Guadalupe, we beg you that
parents live a holy life and educate their
children in a Christian manner;
that children obey and follow
the directions of their parents; that
all members of the family
pray and worship together.
This we ask of you, O Mother.

Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory.

With my heart full of the most sincere
veneration, I prostrate myself before you,
O Mother, to ask you to obtain for me the grace
to fulfill the duties of my state in life with
faithfulness and constancy.

Ninth Day

O God, You have been pleased to bestow
upon us unceasing favors by having placed
us under the special protection of the Most

face to face in heaven.

Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory.
