Petition to Our Mother of Divine Love

O beautiful Immaculate Virgin Mary,

Mother of God and our Mother,

spouse of the Holy Spirit,

with His Divine love,

has designed to come upon you

the moment you took form in your mother’s womb,

thus, preserving you from the stain of sin

and keeping you ever immaculate.

Again, He came down upon you

at the time of the annunciation,

whom you have been worthily greeted

by an angel with the words,

“Hail, full of grace!”

Yes, O Mother,

You are truly full of grace, 

rendering you the Mother of Jesus, 

at the same time keeping you ever Virgin.

Moreover,

He came down upon you on Pentecost, 

filling you with His gifts, and making you the channel

and dispenser of all heavenly blessings. 

Thus, we turn to you in confidence

that you will obtain for us the grace we need

for we know that you will never turn us away.

Therefore,

O gracious Lady of Divine Love, 

please listen to our prayers,

especially this petition: 

(mention your request)

Thank you, dear Mother.

Protect our Holy Father Pope Francis,

bring into perfect unity all Christians

according to the desire of your divine Son.

Grant peace and prosperity,

to the whole world, to our country,

to our community  and to our family.

Illumine with the light of the Gospel

all who have not yet come

to the true faith; 

convert poor sinners;

give us too a sincere contrition for our sins, 

render us always strong enough to say “no” 

when temptation assail us.

You who see us mourning

and weeping in this world,

come to our aid when we are burdened

by the weight of our suffering;

strengthen us to accept

the inevitable difficulties

and trials of life;

O Mother of Grace,

cast your maternal gaze on us,

keep us ever in your sweet protection;

lead us along the path of fraternal love and charity;

grant that we, your beloved children,

will always render you praise with our lives;

keep ever burning in us the flame of Divine Love

so that we will let ourselves be entirely consumed by it

here in this life and in eternity.

Comfort, O Virgin Mary,

when God would finally beckon us,

open to us the portals of heaven and 

bring all souls to Your Son Jesus.

Amen.
