The Patronage Prayer




In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.


Most holy and immaculate Virgin, My Mother Mary, to thee, the Mother of my God, the Queen of the world, the advocate, the hope, and the refuge of sinners, I have recourse to-day, I, who am the most miserable of all.


I render thee my humble homage, O great Queen, and I thank thee for all the graces which thou hast bestowed upon me until now, particularly for having delivered me from hell, which I have so often deserved.


I love thee, O most amiable Sovereign, and for the love I bear thee, I promise to serve thee always, and to do all in my power to make others love thee also.


I place in thee, after God, all my hopes. I confide my salvation to thy care. Accept me for thy servant, and take me under thy protection, O Mother of mercy, and since thou art so powerful with God, deliver me from all temptations, or rather obtain for me the strength to triumph over them until death. Obtain for me, I beseech thee, a perfect love for Jesus Christ. To thee I look for grace to die a good death.


O My Mother, by the love which thou bearest to God, I beseech thee to help me at all times and particularly at the decisive moment of death. Do not leave me until thou seest me safe in heaven occupied in blessing thee, and singing thy mercies throughout eternity.


Amen.





The Memorare






Remember, O most pious Virgin Mary! that no one ever had recourse to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy mediation without obtaining relief. Confiding, then, in thy goodness and mercy, I cast myself at thy sacred feet, and do most humbly, supplicate thee, O Mother of the eternal Word! to adopt me as thy child, and take upon thyself the care of my salvation. O let it not be said, my dearest Mother, that I have perished where no one ever found but grace and salvation.






Amen.

ROSARY WISDOM - FROM A VATICAN PRIEST




Young boys praying at Father Flanagan's funeral.
Location:Omaha, NE, US
Date taken:May 1948



One day a colleague of mine heard the devil say during an exorcism: "Every Hail Mary is like a blow on my head. If Christians knew how powerful The Rosary was, it would be my end." 

The secret that makes this prayer so effective is that the Rosary is both Prayer and meditation. It is addressed to the Father, to the Blessed Virgin, and to the Holy Trinity, and is a meditation centered on Christ. 


I write in addition to the above:  


Please enunciate each word of the Rosary clearly and distinctly. Do not Trample on the heels of the words of anyone with your words. Do not speak Over the leader if you are following or the respondent if you are leading The Rosary. Remember that they also are having a conversation with Mary Our Mother and it is not polite to speak when someone else is speaking. In the Case of the public Rosary there are only two people speaking: the Leader and The respondents. Each is speaking to the Blessed Mother and listening Carefully to her response within their hearts as they meditate on the scene 
Before them in their consideration of the mystery being spoken of and Interpreted and translated into their lives.


Spread this powerful prayer of Exorcism, the Rosary, which contains the Our Father, the Perfect Prayer, Prayed five times in the recitation of each set of the Rosary's Mysteries, 
Backed up by the powerful prayers of Our Mother who prays with us as we pray 53 Hail Mary's. 

The Eternal Father described to a group of us, through a Visionary Friend of Mine, what happens when we pray the Rosary, saying, "When you pray Holy Mary Mother of God, pray for us sinners now....., the Blessed Mother comes 
Instantly to your side to pray with you. And she does not come alone. She Brings angels with her. And not just one or two for she is the Queen of Angels, so choirs of angels come with her. And she and Jesus are joined at The heart and cannot be separated so she brings Jesus with her. And Jesus 
Cannot be separated from the Trinity so He brings the Father and the Holy Spirit with Him. And where the Holy Trinity is, all of creation is, and you Are surrounded by such beauty and light as you cannot imagine in this life. 


Your Mother comes as Our Lady of Grace with her hands outstretched. Rays of 
Light emit from her hands piercing your body, healing you and filling you With graces. This is your inheritance which was poured out from the heart of 
Jesus on the Cross, when the centurion pierced His Heart with the spear, into the only pure vessel ready to receive such graces at that time, Your Mother. Now as you pray the Rosary, or even just recite one Hail Mary, you receive your portion of these graces. He also said at this time, "Anyone who Goes to Mary and prays the Rosary cannot be touched by Satan."Is it any Wonder that anyone who prays the Rosary from the heart is so blessed and protected and powerful in their prayers for others? 



Fr Gabriele Amorth is very well known throughout the Church and is the chief Exorcist of the Vatican . He writes regularly for Zenit.

THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIFT OF MARY


Little Jesus, my sweet Lamb, that my heart might be your cradle.  

I hold Him and will not let Him go because I chose Him for all my Good.

JULY - 28th Day







All hail to thee, dear and ever-blessed Mother!  We honor thee for God honors thee;  we love thee, for God loves thee;  we obey thee, for thou ever commandest the will of thy Lord.  The passers-by may jeer thee; . . . earth and hell rise up in wrath against thee . . . but all the more dear art thou to our hearts;  all the more deep and sincere is the homage we pay thee;  and all the more earnestly do we pray thee to receive our humble offerings, and to own us for thy children, and watch over us that we never forfeit the right to call thee our Mother.  (Orestes Brownson)
