Blessed Virgin Mary

Prayers to the Immaculate Heart of Mary 

O Most Blessed Mother, heart of love, heart of mercy, ever listening, caring, consoling, hear our prayer. As your children, we implore your intercession with Jesus your son. Receive with understanding and compassion the petitions we place before you today, especially 

(Mention your special intentions.)

We are comforted in knowing your heart is ever open to those who ask for your prayer. We trust to your gentle care and intercession, those whom we love and who are sick or lonely or hurting. Help all of us, Holy Mother, to bear our burdens in this life until we may share eternal life and peace with God forever.

Amen.

Daily Novena to Our Lady, Mary Mediatrix of All Grace 

Recite with devotion and fervor five decades of the Rosary meditating on the Joyful, Luminous, Sorrowful or Glorious Mysteries as the Blessed Virgin asked at Fatima; then say:

V. Incline unto my aid, O Lord.

R. Lord, make haste to help me.

V. Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit.

R. As it was in the beginning, is now and will be forever. Amen.

Remember, O most gracious, Virgin Mary that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession, was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins my Mother, to you do I come; before you I stand sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in your mercy hear and answer me. Amen. 

(3 yrs indulgence. Plenary once a month if recited daily.)

We fly to your protection, O Holy Mother of God; despise not our petitions in our necessities, but deliver us always from all dangers, O gloious Virgin Mary. 

(5 yrs. indulgence. Plenary once a month if recited daily.)

Recite 3 Hail Mary and the Glory be to the Father

Remember us, O Virgin Mother of God, in the presence of the Lord, and do you speak in our favor so that His wrath may be averted from us. 

(300 days indulgence. Plenary once a month if recited daily.)

V. Our Most Powerful Mediatrix, pray for us.

R. That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

Prayer

O Lord Jesus Christ, our Mediator with the Father, who has appointed the Most Blessed Virgin, Your Mother, to be our Mother also; grant that whosoever draws near to You to beseech any benefit, may rejoice. Who lives and reigns with God the Father and the Holy Spirit forever and ever. Amen.

Act of Consecration

– by Pope Pius XII

Most Holy Virgin Mary, tender Mother of men, to fulfill the desires of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the request of the Vicar of Your Son on earth, we consecrate ourselves and our families to your Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart, O Queen of the Most Holy Rosary, and we recommend to You, all the people of our country and all the world.

Please accept our consecration, dearest Mother, and use us as You wish to accomplish Your designs in the world.

O Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary, Queen of the Most Holy Rosary, and Queen of the World, rule over us, together with the Sacred Heart of Jesus Christ, Our King. Save us from the spreading flood of modern paganism; kindle in our hearts and homes the love of purity, the practice of a virtuous life, an ardent zeal for souls, and a desire to pray the Rosary more faithfully.

We come with confidence to You, O Throne of Grace and Mother of Fair Love. Inflame us with the same Divine Fire which has inflamed Your own Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart. Make our hearts and homes Your shrine, and through us, make the Heart of Jesus, together with your rule, triumph in every heart and home.

Amen.
