Novena to
Our Lady of 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 - the end of all abortion - and the respect of al life -
and the forgiveness of our national sins of pride against both God and
man, (here add any of your own intentions - such as the release of the
holy souls in purgatory - or any personal petitions or thanks you with to
mention.)
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.
Our Father, Hail Mary,
Glory.
Fifth Day
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.
Eighth
Day
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.
Our Father, Hail Mary,
Glory.
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 Blessed Virgin Mary. Grant us, your humble
servants, who rejoice in honoring her today upon earth, the happiness of
seeing her face to face in heaven.
Our Father, Hail Mary,
Glory.
